    Steve's Factory Manager might be able to do that with the Advanced Inventory Relay. Possibly in conjuntion with a Comparator, but the player needs to give the block permission to interact with their inventory. You could work around it by throwing an item on the ground, walking over the relay to...

    Depends on which version of research you gave up on and why.

    I thought they were random drops from grass. Maybe I'm wrong.

    I have added PneumaticCraft to Magic Farm 2, and I'm getting no seeds. All I get are the Hunger Overhaul seeds. Could this be a compatibility problem?

    I read his plea as more "I'm surprised no-one has done a guide for this" than "I demand that the FTB team give me more free stuff". It's a subtle distinction. I've done nothing with bees since 1.4.7 (when the guides and wikis were great) so I haven't looked to see if the guides are up to date.

    Dunno, does TMI still exist? Craftguide? Recipe Book?

    I agree, the days of "critical mods" are over, and that's a good thing. RP3 will be optional for modpack builders. I will use it in my main world, as I love the computers if nothing else. Frames are cool as well, but like I said, there are alternatives. I never really got on with the pneumatic...

    It already was unique, and worked really well. I don't see why it needs to change just for change's sake. Most power systems are essentially interchangeable, you have chunks of power thst move around and do stuff and are consumed. Blutricity was never like that. Is that a pain? I guess it could...

    Depends on the mod. Thaumcraft? Probably, because of nodes and taint spread. Railcraft? Yes, because of player tracking. AE? Yes, because of Certus Quartz rendering (but only if you disable it BEFORE worldgen).

    I really don't see what the hate was for with RP2 not updating. Nothing that you built ever stopped working because RP never updated to the next version of MC, because worlds are never compatible across mod packs on different MC versions, so why does it matter that 1.5 packs didn't have RedPower?

    The harvester works, or it did in 1.5 when I last used one with 'cane, and you don't need a planter as it only harvests the top two blocks.

    You can't copyright an idea. As long as they don't rip her textures or code, there's no problem.

    You could try switching to peaceful and then back, that will get rid of any accumulations of mobs that are preventing spawning due to numbers. If you have any mobs that you want to keep, like a charged creeper in a bottle, then snag it into a safari net or golden lasso first.

    What gives you that feeling? I've seen nothing that she's said that in any way seems to be expecting any kind of spotlight. Your aspersions are entirely un-called-for.

    I was a huge fan of RedPower, still am as I still play a 1.4.7 game with a friend. Back in the day I would occasionally don the holy regalia and play a paladin. I never thought that anyone should delay making a pack for lack of RedPower though. I moved on and used other mods. The one thing that...

    Why Update to 1.7

    In the save file? Thanks. It had to be, really. As the saying goes, "there are no problems in computing that cannot be solved by adding a layer of abstraction" (apart from the problem of too many layers of abstraction).

    Why Update to 1.7

    So save files are now well over ten times bigger than they used to be? Instead of four pieces of stone being stored as 1,1,1,1 it is now Minecraft.Stone,Minecraft.Stone,Minecraft.Stone,Minecraft.Stone? I smell nonsense.

    Why Update to 1.7

    I don't believe it. I'm not a modder but I am a programmer with over 30 years of experience. The missing piece of the puzzle to me is, how does Minecraft maintain consistent block IDs from one run to the next? And don't tell me there are no block IDs any more, the Anvil format is still used to...
