    Bored? How about 3 fusion reactor bored?

    Active liquiducts extract a limited number of buckets per tick. Steam funnels discard steam over a certain internal capacity, and I'm fairly certain Way's design suffers from that. Saice's nuclear reactor doesn't really suffer from that because nuclear reactors don't output their entire buffer...

    Bored? How about 3 fusion reactor bored?

    They don't auto-eject so you'd end up using a ton of gates. And also the insane sum of steam flowing out of them... the liquiducts are actually the primary inefficiency in this system. Designs exist on paper to solve this but they are very complicated and this thing already fills up AESUs in...

    Thoughts on MFR

    People need to learn how awesome the old features of the mod have become. Conveyors, Item Collectors and Item Routers are genuinely useful. Because they only push items along but possess input inventories, and they have very inexpensive and predictable insertion behavior, they've become...

    Bored? How about 3 fusion reactor bored?

    Powered liquiducts. And Control circuits. The sad thing is you can't even see Way's actual design innovation.

    Bored? How about 3 fusion reactor bored?

    Meanwhile... other types of fusion reactors are being built. [spoiler] This is Way of Time's tricky Resonant Rise (based off some early prototyping work on the AS nuclear reactors by Saice) it costs well over 8000 bronze to make, but exceeds Gregtech's fusion reactor in every dimension...

    What does YOUR Power Room look like?

    I need to challenge Saice. I think I can get the same total power efficiency with 1/10th the overall resource investment at the cost of max throughput.

    The more the merrier. I'll link you from our G+ page too.

    Huh. Fusion.

    The most underused starting strategies?

    Ars has a ton to like, but really messes with resource balancing. Its tough to integrate into a pack.

    The most underused starting strategies?

    I'd do another starting video, but I feel like my mod pack has drifted too far from Ultimate to really contribute to this discussion.

    Question about ME Drives

    The 1.5.2 stuff can do even more than that, now. It's nice.

    Oil Rich

    I'm pretty sure it's not a bug. Why does everyone always assume it is? There's a new biome in buildcraft.

    Detecting items in an inventory

    Probably the easiest way is ComputerCraft. The Inventory mod can do a lot.

    How should a youtuber start an FTB series?

    Is this really true or is it apocryphal? The Yogs cheat all the time... I dunno. No one has ever complained about this to me. I do show how I mine for yield now (TiC max fortune pickaxe + dartcraft fortune armor + extrautilities sonar goggles + dartcraft backpacks: x2.75 ore, 0 processing...

    Question about the Wither.

    You can fly, shoot super arrows, and lay about with unstoppable lasers and plasma cannons. Why do you need to trap the wither? Beat him to death and laugh as he rages against your impervious armor. He is a midgame boss. Seriously, nether stars are not really something that you need auto-farm...

    A survey about how you play- anyone can view responses (no private info)!

    My secrets are: 1. Dartcraft regeneration rods (mark2) on a force belt. 2. Dartcraft holding rods (cheap) 3. No one has seen Devil Hunter (Witch Hunter MarkII). It's a TiC tool. In combination with my new dartcraft armor which adds to my damage (and drops)... 4. Another good tool against them...

    Yeah you saw... it was grim for awhile. I need to get a wall going.

    Why Does Everyone Care So Much About Expense

    FWIW, Resonant is backing away from Ars. The permissions are impossible and it really is a challenge to balance into a pack. You cannot remove fabricators without breaking the mod.

    Now that I got my dartcraft stuff in order, it's easy. My regeneration and electric armor beats their poison every time.
