But Noooo! One more punch on my card and you owe me a free coffee! This Enigmus1 loyalty card is WORTHLESS now. For you, software licenses are just a thing jimmies can be rustled over. For me, they're sort of how I support my family. Forgive me for understanding more about them than the...

Equal trade wands with treasure DO get you more diamonds. Btw fun fact, glass is a valid target to swap for. In combination with a pickaxe of the core this can lead to some interesting decisions. But you really really need to get charging on that sucker if you use it as a mining tool for...

Can you? I thought I tried it and it failed and spat the items everywhere.

It's important to understand that item coloring in RP2 doesn't guide path-ing, it restricts path-ing. An uncolored object ignores all colors. A colored object cannot pass through any other color but its own, or uncolored things. Finally, objects try each possible destination in order from...

Okay cool, but make no mistake: RedPower2 has several longstanding bugs, a few outright client crasher bugs and two server crasher bugs I have run across in just 4 weeks of running a server. And it definitely introduces some client latency to some of the slower computers that connect. You can...

You be the carrot, I'll be the stick. As PZ Meyers has shown, it takes all kinds.

Any mining turtle program that doesn't use an ender chest is doomed to an inferiority complex. Everything else is gravy. I eagerly await item tesseract turtles.

I've never seen a pure node spawn a hostile wisp. I think that's part of the benefits.

Wait, Mindcrack has GT hardmode on for the macerator? I guess yet even more reasons to never ever ever use the macerator ever again.

I received 4 from the first tree I cut down, then none since. The RNG can be a cruel master. On the plus side, you just really don't need that many unless your plan is to kill a dark node. It's actually a pretty bad idea to make one giant supernode over your lab unless all the nearby nodes are...

I agree there are tons of cooler ways to do automation than Yet More Item Tracks. I think that anyone who's played with thaumcraft golems can tell you how much better that can be than pipes. I have single golems doing things that traditionally to 2-3 block structures with multiple timers. And...

Probably the most trivial: You can write to a file then call shell.run.

Reread point 6 and I think you'll understand why I use intelligent straw golems. Also, perceptive on straw golems is something of a waste in the current version, because their range resets after each operation. They will routinely run across your entire farm.

Do also remember that holding Control-T will terminate any program that is not specifically blocking that feature. By the way, if you like that you might like code with this shape. And also if you want to make really smart-looking programs, use coroutines. They let you write functions that are...

Software Engineering is sort of infamous right now as being particularly laden with these issues. For example, you're much more likely to find women in electrical engineering than software engineering.

That said, I still cannot figure out how to get MultiMC to add freakin' NEI to a fresh build. I wish they would document that tool even a little bit.

Siimilar to Mero's post here is how we get all the seeds we'll ever need (2 upgraded barrels and a full iron tank of seed oil). Set up a normal farm. Get some intelligent straw golems and perceptive wood golems to man the farm. Set up a sequeezer nearby. Assign a clay golem to keep it full of...

Oh, because it'll let you clone existing worlds and saves and more easily track FTB just adding the extra things you want. Neither really makes the modpack building process that much easier (except for assembling the actual forgeified jar, which can be tricky) but it does make tracking existing...

If you're going to do that, it might also make sense to start using MagicLauncher or MultiMC to manage the modpack.

Maybe it does, but do consider it's immaterial to the discussion of how to assemble a modpack today.
