    How to Automate Big Reactors.

    Thread revive time. I stumbled into the setup @Lordlunder talks about above with the 3 redstone ports, and my reactor keeps toggling off eventually. I'm thinking it happens when I have a bump back up over 5% full, then I have a sudden power drain that takes the battery back below 5%...

    FTB Iinfinity Evolved -- Dirt Eroding/Disappearing?

    I've noticed the dirt disappearing in chunks that are frequently loaded but outside the mob load distance but that I visit now and then, so there shouldn't be endermen picking anything up since they would unload when I go back to my base. And there are no hungry nodes anywhere that I've found...

    What the hell?!

    It's a fantastic mod pack! I played through Sky Factory 3 prior to this and have been playing through Expert Mode on and off for the past year or so and enjoying it thoroughly!

    Yeah, I tried fiddling with cobblestone for a bit without success bc I wondered the same thing. I suppose I could look to another mod for a wall-mounted repeater-ish item. That would stink not hiding it in a facade though.

    Yes, it will transfer a signal to redstone dust, but can it power a block? If you point a repeater into a block of cobblestone and put dust on the other side, the dust will light up when the repeater is powered. It seems to me like there is a way to do this with the conduit, but I'm not figuring...

    Something want to asking

    Draconic Evolution has an item called a Charm Of Dislocation that has 21 uses and can bind to only one location--though it works across dimensions. The upgrade to it can store many locations and is powered by ender pearls (one pearl per teleport). RFTools has an item called the Charged Porter...

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Can you power a block with an insulated redstone conduit from ender io? As in, you run the conduit into the block, set the conduit to out put a strong signal, and a piece of redstone dust on the other side of the block would be powered. I thought you could, but I haven't been able to make it...

    What the hell?!

    Just found this in my Infinity Evolved world and was so confused. My birthday is tomorrow, so I was trying to figure out if there was some weird mod that had access to some record of my birthday, but my search found this thread instead. This makes a heck of a lot more sense. Had a similar thing...

    FTB Infinity Beyond -- Age-Old Question: AE2 ME Storage Bus

    Hm. Now it's moving new items into my DSUs even though the numbers still don't match up.... I doubt I'll have any critical problems with these particular items and that number mismatch, but I don't want to get into that situation with another type of item. So I'd still like to find a solution to...

    Something want to asking

    1. For making blocks unbreakable, Thaumcraft offers warding through its wand system. You have to make a wand focus for warding, then you can apply it to most blocks and make them unbreakable, even by other players. I'm sure there are others, but I don't know enough mods to give you other...

    FTB Infinity Beyond -- Age-Old Question: AE2 ME Storage Bus

    I know this has been a problem for a lot of people, but I can't seem to find an answer to my flavor of it in the threads or videos I've read and watched. I just hooked up some DSUs for my basic bee products (honeydew, propolis, beeswax, and honey drops), and I want to make those my sole storage...

    Magic Bees/Botania -- Beegonia Behavior?

    So I've tried a few different things, and I think I've found what I'll be using for my base. Since my mana farm is where I see it a lot and I'm limited on space, I won't be using the massive 5x5 transvector setup I showed above. My setup that I'll try running for a while uses 11 flowers (6...

    Magic Bees/Botania -- Beegonia Behavior?

    I cut it down to 4 flowers (corners from the original 3x3), and they quickly got stuck. They didn't fill up their buffers, but they stopped eating. Perhaps they have a visual buffer and calculated future buffer? As in, they know how much mana they're going to have from the bee they ate, so they...

    Magic Bees/Botania -- Beegonia Behavior?

    I set up a 5x5 field of Item Droppers, and they behaved just as before, as far as all bees being consumed each round and with occasional hangs and delays. So this is probably the best solution for amassing huge amounts of mana in short amounts of time: I'm going to see how few flowers can...

    Magic Bees/Botania -- Beegonia Behavior?

    I managed to get an array of item droppers to drop a total of 12 bees every 2.5 seconds without any issues with the flowers eating them and transferring them. They must be able to transfer their mana faster than they eat, so that's why a group of flowers is able to look like it's not eating at...

    Magic Bees/Botania -- Beegonia Behavior?

    They are indeed getting stuck. I've got a setup in creative with four piles dropping simultaneously, and sometimes they eat the bees before the next one hits but sometimes the net one groups up before they do and they all hang for a cycle or two. It must have to do with the grouping together on...

    Magic Bees/Botania -- Beegonia Behavior?

    So I think when stacks group up on the ground, they reset some sort of timer that allows the flowers to eat them. Speeding up past 2 seconds seems to make the flowers slow down a lot in their eating. I'll run some more tests in creative and try dispersing the bees and see if that makes a difference.

    Magic Bees/Botania -- Beegonia Behavior?

    I'm messing with this again, going back and forth between my creative and survival worlds. From what I can tell, these flowers refuse to consume bees if they're full. Regardless of whether they're connected to a spreader, so long as their own buffer is full, they won't eat flowers. One thing I...

    FTB Infinity Evolved -- Additional Bees/Effects

    Oh, and I've been wondering whether these effects just mean they spawn the respective animal. I'm working through the genes right now to test it out.

    FTB Infinity Evolved -- Additional Bees/Effects

    I'm working up through another bee branch because I want to automate wool production with my bees, and I can't find info on this branch on the internet anywhere. The two I've looked for are the Sheepish and Porcine bees, and the Porcine seems to be from Magic Bees. But no website I've found...
