It works with all ExtraBiomes trees, does it not? It's just a matter of us seldom wanting them to. It certainly did in my test world! And that's part of the absurdity of it, MFR at least has a height cap. Have you ever tested how far SC2 will actually strip a densely connected forest? Hint...

For one, we both know that for trees dense multi-block farms actually decrease overall yield, not increase them. I was there when you set it up, if you recall. I even helped move some parts. Some key differences in my estimation, though: It wasn't self-bootstrapping. A treecart is a fire and...

My new litmus test for inviting people to our minecraft servers: I ask, "Do you think EE2 was OP?" If they hem and haw, or say no, or ask what I mean, then they're in. If they say "Yes" without hesitating then I probably don't wanna play minecraft with them. Because all this thread shows me...

Dire uses mods we can't use anymore. Although I suspect Infinitubes could do what the sorting machine is doing. But it is like a fancy buildcraft hopper. We've said about 4 times that it doesn't ever overflow. The hopper is uniquely suited to water conveyors because you can't really push stuff...

Actually I am wrong, you are right. Voiding your quarry output is sub-optimal if you want to use its spare output for Ars Magica. And you'd want to do this becuase why the heck wouldn't you wanna slap down a quick nexus and charge up batteries with it? it's a total waste not to because that...

I still think this is a fair change. SC2 tree farms were insanely good. Way too good. Like: literally nothing anyone has ever released was as good as a SC2 tree farm. Many of us have single-SC2 tree farms that ran uninterrupted for months powering 5-6 solid boilers and 3-5 liquid boilers running...

Oh I meant SC2 farms, where you need bone meal. You can use Ars to produce the bone meal for free to reload the cart, or you can use a caster to force tree growth. I think the SC2 output was adjusted so that it's only worthwhile if you constantly fertilize the trees.

No one who wants the cobble needs it ever. And you'd have the hopper push it into a dropper next to lava. This is as cheap as void piping for the server and client, and very very inexpensive.

Fun game: use water conveyors over hoppers that filter out cobble. :) It'll look cool. Putting a dropper on top of a quarry results in a nice orderly stream of items popping out to one side. MFR and water conveyors handle it nicely.

I am gonna try them tonight when I record along with the new bee houses. This change seems super-cool. The big problem before was how hard it was to get into beekeeping; by the time you could actually build all the stuff the early bee outputs were not useful. It was too good w/out fertilizer...

Just make the MPS pants, mang. They're better than the traveller boots in every way!

Ars Armor may suit you well as well, sir. I suspect you will like it. For the record, Ars Armor supposedly stands up to lasers as well. And more for the record, it's proooobaby because he used explosive mode that it happened.

Yeah but the sorting system aspect is still under development. It isn't even like, you know, done yet. People are still figuring out how to make it more compact and useful.

Right now, for all intents and purposes, Gregtech IS IC3. If RichardG doesn't like that he should stop changing his API 3 times a week and work on content. To be fair, you are also the slowest and most vulnerable person on AdvancingCraft. Remember that time Poppy accidentally shot us with his...

I was going to make a snappy retort about Gregtech, but actually GT just added support for UE power. So uh... maybe kinda true. Especially if Ars Magica goes in the pack. MPS, Tinker's Construct, and Ars Magica can all make tools that the quantifiably better than all but the Gravisuite tools...

This is a really weird and specific set of events. I can see that'd be bad, but in the same way that mixing IC2 voltages is supposed to be "bad." This is specifically a feature and Thaumcraft specifically makes sure things don't get too out of hand if you do this. It actually has a limiter on...

You can't charge off buildcraft power yet. This is supposedly gated on KingLemming. I update my modpack then check that snapshot into git. This way if I bjork something I can roll back. It is not the most efficient use of git or github. But I pay them money so you know what? They can take...

The T3 crucible was never a problem for anyone, and if it was they fixed it. GT translocators on AdvancingCraft are terrible. They go to sleep for long periods of time, don't consistently output to non-GC-item inventories, and have a very slow flow rate. Supposedly the delay is 10 seconds...

Oh clever. The TE machines eject into its inventory! I hadn't thought of that, but it definitely opens up more flexible builds. When are Buildcraft pipes gonna get upgraded to not drop things? Now that hoppers exist, they have no excuse save for legacy coding purposes.

I was wondering that, too. Maybe this is how DoctorOr is loading the machine. You can just right-click them and drop stuff in and it's more convenient than the stock TE interface in many cases.
