Observationally it goes, "Preformatted, then determined by order in drive bay, then determined by distance of ME chest from controller BY CABLE LENGTH." By the way; spring for the preformatter up front. Don't do what I did and avoid that. It sucks to have stuff scattered randomly in opaque...

There is a bug with golems. If your world resets (server reboot/restart singleplayer) sometimes they can spawn before the world does and fall to their doom. Be prepared.

I did the same math recently and my conclusion was similar. The only time you'd go for the railcraft boilers is when you're at "Steel isn't a big deal" level of production. Which is actually not endgame, but it's past the critical point where you can't just LOLava or use one of the solar mods.

One way to make Gregtech harder is to just remove railcraft and leave forestry bronze nerfed. Railcraft provides a cheap out on stage 1 of gregtech, the blast furnace, giving you access to important metals a lot earlier with much less aggressive stuff. Remove RP2, for example, and require...

My MPS forcefield is so strong meme incoming...

That one recurring nightmare where an Enderman teleports in wearing a fully upgraded Modular Powersuit.

And assuming you get that right, it works. :) The risk is in getting it wrong. Minecraft doesn't give you many ways to do "dry runs." Do nukes have a use besides griefing?

Hmm. That does seem like a lot, but of course it's not that simple. Type I reactors are usually Type I because they have little fuel and lots of cooling. Maybe 2-5x makes sense. You want it to be good, but not insane. That said, there is Dat Fusion Reactor and at some point you say, "The risk...

So getting back to the "admins-make-nuclear-competitive", would a 10x increase in EU output be apropos? Is that too much?

S'fine. I know I'll be doing my best to submit patches to you after I get through this next push at work. I'd rather see you flesh out the rest of the mechanics for the armor anyways. I heard something about heat and I want to see it. :) My first goal: make an...

This is a boring circle you have set before us. Avoided. Then turn that off if it bothers you so. The config is there. It's not like steel is an insurmountable goal in these packs, nor even particularly late game. Particularly in ultimate, where you can get steel from RailCraft blast...

10x boost it is, I guess.

Routers can do absurd things with water buckets. If you're in Ultimate, Routers + Xycraft Item I/O can make the whole thing work even better (I think you can use exactly 0 redpower timers now!). I think you can get it very close to using no timers at all with a few routers and a perpetually full...

There are free virtualizers too. VirtualBox comes to mind. I use it for work.

You'd have to have a pretty old computer for it to not have any 64-bit support at all. Are you rocking a Cyrix-powered ugly stick?

That's exciting. So let's say I was running a server—does that setting "fix" nukes as in, bring it back inline with what is reasonable to expect from such an expensive and dangerous system?

Right but Java cannot use all available process memory because of the way the heap is organized. It also needs some machinery for the runtime and GC and the JIT loaded at all times. And I seem to recall... isn't Pre-7 Windows the one that only gives userspace access to like 2/3 the actual memory...

Upgrade. Your. OS. You're hitting fundamental limits on what 32 bit OS's can do. Linux will play Minecraft perfectly fine and 64-bit installations are "free as in it costs as much as it costs to download the OS."

People who also need gold?

Do reactors outputting steam "push" to valves then? If they do, then Xycraft and buildcraft tanks could be used since I've never seen a valve be a bottleneck. Linked Xycraft tanks as efficient conduits for high speed steam transportation and output would probably be cool too. They seem to...
