    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    I wonder if it would be possible to add something similar to the Industrial Grinder to GT. I always loved that machine. Right now the Sag Mill is the best replacement available but its not 10% as cool as the Grinder was. Im missing the good old Grinder.

    Always full packages. So you can have lets say 10 ticks where there is no package sent and one tick with a package of 32EU going through the cable. Every machine obviously has an internal buffer so there isnt any problem with running out of energy because of that. Also the package reduces the...

    Well I guess the main reason to use coke ovens is one can simply set them up along to a tree farm an will never ever have to worry about that again. Lava needs to be replaced eventualy and the same goes for diesel. Sure there are way better and more enjoyable ways of producing energy but most of...

    Im pretty sure they arent disabled. The recipe got changed though you will need a couple of LV machines for conduit binders. Maybe you have a NEI bug or something? Btw your numbers are right, I did the whole calculation once. You will need 18 coke ovens for one charcoal LP boiler and 24,2 for...

    Hah, I did it with Oak Wood since they were in a cave similar environment. Didnt know Jungle Wood would make such a difference, but it sounds logicaly to me now that I think about it.

    Okay wait 96 Coke Ovens from one EnderIO treefarm? That sounds weird. Either there was a major change or you are confusing something. When I did the treefarm stuff back in 3.0 or something I needed three octadic treefarms to supply 72 Coke Ovens. And Im pretty certain octadic farms are way...

    yeah thanks Obsidian is a good solution I didnt see. And I honestly dont know why I have too less Oxygen. Im using tons of steel for all the Railcraft stuff, maybe thats why I dont keep up.

    That is true. But Im not electrolyzing enough to be anywhere near producing enough oxygen. I could just let my system running over night and store the produced oxygen in big tanks. But I would be happy if there could be recipe where you get lets say 250mb of oxygen from charcoal (in the...

    hm... Im sure this got discussed a couple of times here already. But im a little worried about the oxygen costs for my steel if I want to use the EBF for making steel. I calculated 380 seconds which is longer than six minutes for a single steel ingot. Not mentioning the million of EU you will...

    Okay thats true. But still I dont see it being worth all the troubles at all. One has to decide that for himself though.

    Agreed. The BC Quarry realy has no benefit over the ender quarry. Its mechanics are just outdated in my opinion. The only thing positive is you can visualy see it mining. But honestly thats not worth using it over the Ender-quarry at all. It only loads one chunk at a time versus the BC quarry...

    You know your machines are full of steam if the boilers start up building steam in their internal buffers. And as I said Steam Machines are not tier-dependent. High Pressure just costs steal and is doing its job faster whether this is producing or operating/eating steam.

    So you are right Steam machines do not wait until they have enough steam to start an operation. They just assume you will add in the steam thats missing via pipes and start the operation anyways. Basicaly you have two options therefore: Either wait until the buffer of your machine is full (the...

    Okay, so I have tested it further. Turns out removing batteries is no problem, I think the input is based on the max amount of batteries you can store in those buffers. However, when I stress-tested your setup in the rain (I cried doing this) it turns out if a Block next to a GT machine isnt...

    When you tested to run the EBF without energy did you remove any batteries? The Battery Buffers can handle "2x Number of stored Batteries" as Amperage input. Also I would always recommend to put your machines inside. GT isnt messing around when it comes to rain or any other environmental things.

    @Jason McRay Gratulations! Actualy I think this modpack might even stay like that (v2) for at least another year. So keep it up ;). Also there are two minor things I found: The pickaxe recipe from bluepower is still in the pack. It gives you realy strong ruby/sapphire picks with a vanilla...

    hah, welcome back :) btw, Jason is experimenting with a newer version of GT afaik. This one will change early game quite a lot, so if you wanna start out again it might be smart to wait until it gets pushed out. Correct me if Im wrong, im not too deep into it.

    I think this is more an IC2 thing. Its the way they safe the value of the stored energy. There is not realy much you can do other than taking an empty crystal, teach the system how to make an empty crystal (important: you have to use an empty crystal) and use empty crystals in crafting recipes...

    Good to know you cant die with it. Never tested it that far^^

    To be honest thats not the best early-game solution. radioactive arrows are indeed a little too strong I think. Since you cant even stack milk in this modpack afaik.
