    [1.10.2] Age of Engineering

    All right, things aren't quite as fast as I envisioned, since I found I need to build Mekanism thermal evaporation plants in for the creative gas tank. Also, I'm dithering, putting off the chaos dragon fight and making stuff I need later until I've watched DW20 doing the fight. Really, I HATE...

    [1.10.2] Age of Engineering

    Yeah, I now have made everything I need for the creative capacitor bank except for the chaotic core. Man, that was some bit of work. I think I put another 60 patterns into my AE2 system for it, and I sent about 45 billion RF into the atomic multiplier for that, and for rewiring my base...

    [1.10.2] Age of Engineering

    Just a short progress report. I finally finished moving all of my stuff - I'll do some pictures later - and built my bee room on my space station. I am approaching the state of being fully self-contained as much as possible - some metals neither bees nor the void miner can give me are the...

    [Direwolf20 1.12.x] Riddle78's Questions & Musings

    Yeah, that, too. The prevalent wiki at gamepaedia lists wrong power consumption rates. The squeezer and the fermenter consume 640 RF/t each, so you'll need HV wiring to give them what they need.

    [Direwolf20 1.12.x] Riddle78's Questions & Musings

    Well, here's the problem that I suspect: you get more plant oil out of industrial hemp seeds (120mB per seed) than you get out of melon seeds (80mB per seed), which means that you must process more seeds per time unit if you use melon seeds for plant oil than if you use hemp, and the Squeezer...

    Is there any mod that can replicate EnderIO conduit functionality in 1.12?

    Yes, I know, but it doesn't support any kind of facades or covers, as far as I'm aware of.

    Thanks again. This is, in fact, turning out to be one of my favorite builds. Seriously liking this mod pack, it's forcing me to go a lot deeper into mods than before. Indeed so. I can't count the things I did in this pack I never did before. BTW, your base looks nice. What are the blocks you...

    Is there any mod that can replicate EnderIO conduit functionality in 1.12?

    Of all the the things that haven't been ported to 1.12 yet, I think EnderIO conduits are the most important for my typical playstyle, which focuses on keeping my facilities neat, compact and good-looking as well as functional. Is there a mod available for 1.12 that replicates their...

    It is? I found the gold vanishes if dropped by a dropper. Maybe the distance was the problem. I'll try again. Thanks.

    [Direwolf20 1.12.x] Riddle78's Questions & Musings

    You'll need one Fermenter, one Industrial Squeezer and one Refinery for every two Diesel generators. You'll need three cloches with melons (use a compacting drawer to convert to melon slices) and 6-7 with industrial hemp in order to give the Fermenter and Squeezer enough materials for continuous...

    [Direwolf20 1.12.x] Riddle78's Questions & Musings

    Make a one-block pit surrounded on five sides (everywhere but the top) by nether brick and fill it with lava. Throw some gold in, get demon metal out. People say there's a chance the gold gets destroyed, but that never happened to me so far. I used whole stacks. Yes, you don't have to be in the...

    A short update to the progress of my space station.... I added another, bigger dome which will eventually have a self-contained biome with trees, water and wild animals. Another 2000 aluminium and more glass than I can count went into that. And then, the reason why I wanted the dimensional...

    Wow....that was a successful evening. I actually found an ocean monument and got all the other essences for the peace essence in one playing session, yay! It wasn't the guardian which was the most elusive, but the ocelot. I didn't find one until I set Journeymap to display mobs as large icons...

    Do you know if the fluid outlet can fill a lake? Since neither Buildcraft (for its Flood Gate) nor RotaryCraft (for its liquid spiller) can be in the pack, none of the machines I know to be able to do that are available.

    The work never ends... I just thought I could get around to moving my apiaries (and cheatingly industrializing them) :D I'm usually driven by some need. I'm not seeing you're so unusual in that. Everyone needs to fly, right? So when the suffering from not being able to do so gets too painful...

    There are two different issues here: (1) Plutonium. At some point, you'll need quite a bit of that, though I don't recall for what exactly. Plutonium you'll get from centrifuging spent uranium fuel cells, or from UU-matter. Making plutonium from UU-matter, however, is expensive. I had been...

    [1.10.2] Age of Engineering

    Thanks :) I am quite satisfied with the way this is turning out, in fact. The only downside is that I may be forced to add another sphere. My recreation area is not big enough to serve double-purpose as a tree farm, looking quite cramped with trees in it - and the new sphere would have to be...

    No question...the builder. Then map out an 8x8 chunk area of the mining world and let your builder quarry go crazy. Just don't get a heart attack looking at the recipe for the quarry shape card. Also, congratulations for beating the dragon and achieving Age 6. Things are going to get a lot...

    [1.10.2] Age of Engineering

    Before I get to my latest progress, a question that has long bugged me: in videos, I often see someone using an interface with the EnderIO conduits where you can select the direction (North, West etc.): How the heck do you get that interface? I've never found out, and so I must click on the...

    I'm going to answer in a short way since I'm very much at work moving all my stuff to my space station... (1) My name starts with an "I", not with an "L". (2) I'm using Soartex Invictus (there is a "modded universal" version) as my primary, and Chigocraft as my secondary pack. (3) The problem...
