    Agrarian skies fuel source?

    Early game power? I usually start with one magmatic dynamo, then steam dynamos and a tree farm. I plan to run off a lava generator next time (less power at 40RF/t instead of 80, but with different costs to it), then go into MFR biofuel with several farms for different trees and seeds, plus...

    Thank you. I knew I was forgetting stuff.

    1.7.10 isn't that far off, honestly. So we'll be a version behind vanilla for a while. Mods are still a thing.

    I already made that bet. 1.8 is gonna be awesome. :D

    Sure. Big long history to follow: So basically, 1.3 was a natural disaster that seemingly "broke" modding, working as a kind of extinction event -- but which later resulted in greater diversity and playability for mods in general. The 1.7 changes were rather like that, with some very big...

    I think this is awesome, but excessive. However, if this were simplified so that you crafted a shell or machine casing, and then placed it into the world and started right-clicking parts into the shell to build the machine, that would be pretty cool. So you could have motorized machines...

    Yes, exactly. If you've seen how some folks play on ForgeCraft, they pretty much build a thousand of everything. If you can satisfy that kind of power usage with one block, you've done an awesome job of reducing lag. But that doesn't mean I feel satisfied with it. A big multiblock reactor just...

    8x and 64x generators. WTF. I guess this is for people who build GIGANTIC LAG MONSTER power systems, so they don't kill peoples' servers. Meanwhile, lava power (inefficient), redstone power (better with TE than without), but no other liquid fuel. Really? Really? Bleah.

    Huh. I thought that was a problem with TE's tanks, actually. I don't seem to have this situation happening in outside of AgSkies.

    So what would a good RPG mod be like for you?

    So basically you're asking for an RPG mod. Tried DivineRPG yet?

    Box of Matches: 3 sticks across the bottom row, 6 gunpowder across the top two rows. Six use flint and steel, risk of small explosion when used.

    As far as alternative fuels, in my next run I'm going to attempt to use MFR's biofuel with biofuel generators and/or compression dynamos as my primary energy source as soon as I can, until I get a reactor going. Biofuel gens give 160RF/t while compression dynamos are pretty long-lasting, so with...

    I choose 1.8 gets released, then RP3 for 1.7.10.

    That can be argued, but it's late and I'm tired. We'll see if anyone cares once RP3 is released.

    Molten metals don't work in a Big Reactor. However, I believe cobalt and manyllyn are all right as power coils for turbines. (The best is still enderium as far as I know.)

    Logic and common sense say this: She has every right to bring up this issue, and if I were a judge who knows little or nothing about coding, I'd rule in her favor. I'm not only not a lawyer, I stopped listening to Metallica because they were dicks about copyright. Eloraam doesn't appear to be...

    Fluiducts split fluid output evenly across all exits. That means that while you might have a slight bonus over your magmatic dynamos, your drum is going to fill with the same amount each of your engines is. If that bonus is less than the even split between dynamos and drum, then your dynamos are...

    "Actual" copyright? Copyright is inherent in the work, and appertains at the time of creation.

    What's new in modded minecraft today?

    No, that's not an overhaul, that's a total conversion, like TerraFirmaCraft. An overhaul rebuilds a particular system within the game to basically give it different mechanics.
