Isn't that the point of playing Survival Mode? Limit yourself to make playing interesting?

Mod that should add challenge and competitiveness to (heavily automated) SMP Minecraft. "Master Block" (or Feed-Me-Block, or Hungry Block or Root Block or whatever). Which is a world anchor (all other world anchors are disabled). It can probably do other SMP-related stuff, such as grief...

Transformer upgrades are not that expensive (real price is lower energy using effectivity), but they help to reduce lag a lot, when you get to hundred thousands eu/t rates. Intermediate energy storage is useful early game, when you use energy in bursts to process stuff that you just digged.

And to answer my own question - MFR is probably a new IC2 (a little less elegant, but with a lot of bonuses), with it's mining lasers as new MassFab.

In SMP 1. Travel few hours in random direction from the spawn, until I collect all necessary stuff (bees, rubber saplings, cacti, etc) and found a good spot to settle. 2. Set up a magma-powered base 3. Find some diamonds 4. Make a fillerforest to get thousands eu/t and quantum suit 5. Fool...

IC is great, and if I had a choice of just one mod to play with, it'd still probably be IC2. But I think closed-source mods have no future. Is there some UU-equivalent in other mods, btw?

Use electric jetpacks. And have one or more of them in reserve.

Thaumcraft 3 has Rod of Equal Trade that can be used to chop trees too.

Wrongs. Mods are designed to be playable as standalone (some more, some less), but ARE developed to be combined with other mods as well. That's why mod developers make changes when some loophole is found (such as lava in RC boiler) and test them together (DW20's server)

Red line is also inside filled zone. So, if you put filler "on the red line", it will clear itself.

Never connect engines directly to Filler. Filler can only consume so much energy per tick, so it needs some pipes to serve as buffer.

Floating house = no wandering in mobs.

That's why config changes should be pre-made in modpack.

Idea of (new) FTB is distribution of modpacks, not mods. Modpacks that aim at different auditories and playstiles. Some modpacks (MindCrack) value balance, some (BronyPack, probably "ultimate" pack too) doesn't. If EE is supposed to be used in balance-conscious packs, it should be balanced with...

Yes, not EVERYBODY have same idea of that is OP. But 80% of FTB users and 90% of FTB mod authors think that something that makes 95% of other mods content useless is OP.

I have two base ideas I hope to implement one day 1. Huge (255-high) tree. 2. Flying frame base, Wolfenbach Castle-style

When boiler accepted lava, you could make more lava than you spent. It was OP, so it was fixed.

I like wood buildings (especially birch), but they catch fire so easily.

Balance of RP/IC/BC is hinged on irreversibility of convertions. You can't convert metal back to ore, or uranium back to ingot, so you can have different ways of converting things without breaking game balance, When there is even a small case of reversible convertions (like energy back to lava)...

I like vertical tower design. With jetpack, vertical movement is actually much faster than horisontal
