    Extra Large Multifarm--Best Use?

    What you should do is document the output for us, please. Forestry multifarms are poorly understood beasts by this community.

    So, whats the best way to harvest a wheat field this size?

    Actually if you have PowerConverters the MFR BioReactor thing is crazy efficient. Crazy efficient. You could also use some other MJ->Power solution (like lava) or use a Mekanism energy cube (which eats nearly all types of energy and outputs the correct type for whatever it's facing).

    Ultimate could handle it, I think. It's just so amazing as a construction tool. And its mining tools seem OP until you realize quite how insanely dangerous and monster-spawny the holes it makes are. The thing is, an admin can easily use rainbow goo to fix anything that is broken. Small comfort...

    Advanced safe?

    The Advanced safe is a baffling block. It's worse than the IC2 safe in many ways, not the least of which is that it is not creeper-proof.

    I seem to be the first person to mention this. The mod Grey Goo is a really, really, really interesting mod. It uses fairly expensive machines to create blocks that can perform all sorts of interesting autonomous functions like self-preservation, wall building, structure building, fluid...

    True story. The purest expression of this is probably EE3.

    Epic Fail stories

    The absolute maximum you can increase a forestry engine by is 12 MJ/t, for a total of 16MJ/t. You do this by putting 2 tin and 2 bronze tubes on the board (the max of both allowed). This is not the most efficient configuration (0.28 mj/eu ticks) but it's one of the strongest single outputs in...

    If you go this route consider using MultiMC to expedite the process. It'll make your life a bit easier.

    You install Grey Goo and fight the Darkness, Plague and the World Eater. Seriously, check out that mod if you haven't. It's a pretty cool mod for endgame projects.

    Powercraft: What do you think of it?

    Powercraft logic doesn't really need a lot of textual explanation. It works almost exactly the same as RP2's logic with a different crafting scheme. But if I can find the time after wasting it writing epic screeds in defense of modmaker freedom I will. But for now: to coding I must go. I have...

    Well maybe if you created mods as opposed to just consuming them you'd have a slighty different opinion. What I think is interesting is your implicit assumption that the recipe database for Minecraft is somehow read-only and once someone puts it there, it's essential that remain untouched. Why...

    Powercraft: What do you think of it?

    You are doing wonderful work. I'm in a big product push at work but I've resolved to do a quick video on the logic stuff so people can see what that's like. I have it functioning in my new project modpack and confirmed it works. I'll probably have time to put it together later tonight, then...

    I'm curious what your findings were. So far I've only been using the Logic as a replacement for redpower's logic (and in this case it's more expensive per gate). What in particular did you find OP over, say, MFR? The problem with LB is that it really donks up a lot of other mods recipes.

    Let's get real for a second. Human civilization is essentially a game we all play to grant an illusion of control. In reality, the control we can exhibit on our surroundings and our future is quite minimal in a realistic scale. However, by reducing the change we see locally we can use our mind's...

    Dumb Modular Powersuit Tricks

    Cool conversational necro, bro. Perhaps instead of drawing your sword and charging into battle you should read the thread, Galahad.

    Powercraft: What do you think of it?

    Go look. 1. It predates Rei's Minimap. 2. I am not your research department. When you're wrong, it's not my responsibility to walk you down a garden path. I do not care if you use Powercraft in the slightest. You are not worth that degree of intellectual and emotional investment to me...

    Factorization Power

    And the new factorization deprecates the Solar Turbine. It's not the solar boiler and the steam turbine. You can make steam for use in any steam-friendly mod with mirrors and the boiler, and any steam source could power factorization now. So no more excuses for not using it. Except the epic...

    So, whats the best way to harvest a wheat field this size?

    Yeah but if you did it this way then there's no reason to ever move it. I know how fertilizer-deploy farms work and they're great. But we're talking about a massive farm and so it'd be some sort of weird frame machine decision. Seems like over-engineering compared to the much simpler solutions...

    So, whats the best way to harvest a wheat field this size?

    Why/how? Intelligent straw golems replant as they harvest. Unless you go jumping on the wheat, it's not going to ever go fallow. Golems also handle crops that many other mods don't handle right, like flax and corn. Golems are overwhelming the best bet for farming, by like an order of...
