This from the TreeSlayer. Need I remind the members of the jury what happens when you give Poppycocks a power tool?

Put a hobbyist steam engine on top of a factorization solar boiler and it'll get external steam. Which also uncaps its potential, max output is 3mjt/t. I think it needs 10 mirrors and daylight to get this, so thats 80 silver, but it'll start running slowly with just 2 mirrors. So you can scale...

It's actually not a bad deal. Sadly Steam is not very energy dense so you can't use tanks as a battery. But you could make lava or oil with it (very slowly).

yeah yeah. I know. And how many people here actually know how to simulate a timer with rednet? Basically four of us who are talkative, and I know a lot of people just use bare square waves.

He said he's not doing frames. Lots of people don't like them. Any new frames implementation will probably be pretty different from the RP2 system; they'll have fixed sizes and special semantics to make them less likely to explode. And lots of mods rely on internal space tracking and shape...

You have translocators AND YET you use Emerald Pipes. Just to spite me. Key comparisons: Hobbyist Steam Engines are much more efficient than TE steam engines, but only on long running loads. Hobbyist Steam Engines have a startup and cooldown time that is significant, making it hard to...

The square wave -> OSP is perfectly good, but yeah. Epic overkill for a lot of stuff.

And Tsun... if I may? I have been working hard to get my pack into FTB. But part of what you have to do is make a private pack for testing. If you don't test your configs and mod releases thoroughly, you ship with bugs and crashes. I use TechnicLauncher for this (in addition to multimc bundles)...

Let's hope Immibis and PowerCrystals talk. RedAlloy wire would be awesome in conjunction with RedNet. Often times I find myself wanting "last mile", inexpensive logic while doing test builds using the programmable rednet controller. And let's face it, sometimes the PRC is way overkill. But the...

But it's like... a full DSU. Believe me. I know. I am sorry!

Stephen re-claims to have the fix, and we'll get a new build of IC2 soon. Hopefully the days of hard crashes will be behind us soon.

I just want to accomplish tasks. If the argument is, "AE makes some stuff easy!" then yeah, sure. I am with that. AE's autocrafting and machine automation is great for task-driven stuff. Never been better. Neither MFR farms nor Forestry farms do this very well. Forestry farm have to be...

Why is it dumb? Obsidian, Iron and Wood are all pre-diamond resources.

But the setup you described will never retain any wood for building OR will only start building after some minimum number is reached. It cannot both store and produce outputs at the same time. You end up with massive fields of expensive blocks just to keep your stuff under control. For...

ME exporter into the water mill exporting full buckets of water. ME importer on the bottom pulling emptybuckets out. Export empty buckets into the bucket filler of your choice.

It is cool how far off topic we are.

The key difference here was that you got to where you were via a series of steps that the mods intended. EE2 made it a different game, and EE2 was actually a pretty fun mod! The problem was it was then paired with IC2 and Buildcraft by a certain group of popular modpacks and these intense (and...

Elo did not do all the work for RP2 on her own, nor did she come up with all the concepts of RP2 ex nihilo. She worked closely with her contemporaries, borrowed ideas and changed the way she did stuff over time. MFR is 3 people, and they're insanely prolific. Minefactory Reloaded is a bigger mod...

Mean that you have an upper limit on what you can store. For example, I'd like to have a DSU full of wood, feed a solid fuel boiler, and never overflow into the world. Doing this with AE intelligently is hard. Even worse, level emitters are binary; on or off. This means that if you DO want to...
