    Are my Steam Boiler calculations correct?

    Which is exactly what SBs are meant to do - as long as enough fuel+water is provided, the boiler will keep all connected machinery at full power. Within its steam producing limits ofc. So, yes, you're right and no, the boiler will not run out of steam.

    Thoughts Minecraft Server !!

    What did the person whom you quoted mean with that? As long as there's no explanation about that - and we're left in the dark to speculate, I'll go with: What is this I don't even? Which is just as good to think about. ;)

    Think the idea of VR Minecraft would be awesome?

    *thinking about literally all VR-solutions since 1979* ... Meh. Sorry. But meh.

    Need a fast way to get rid of watersourceblocks

    To RP2 pumps, as a sidenote: The water from those is not 'gone' but rather 'moved'. So unless you have a crater big enough to fill with all that water... ;)

    Tropical bees not working

    If it's SMP and if the bees are not where I left them and if I know I harvested them from junglehives myself - then it's definitely not the least likely solution. ;)

    Tropical bees not working

    I did not say anything different - but the bee in your beealyzer-screenshot does NOT want ferns or vines. That's why she's complaining that she can't find the right type of flower. If she would be looking for vines/ferns, the beealyzer would state "Jungle", not "Flowers". Somewhere in your...

    Tropical bees not working

    She's got vines, she's got ferns - and where in that screenshot, are the (vanilla red/yellow) flowers? ;) The Beealyzer would say "Jungle" if that bee wanted vines/ferns. That one really wants flowers, like a meadow bee. ;)

    Automatic Door

    While in theory, you are perfectly right, imagine this setup in any kind of city/village scape with doors about 20 blocks apart from each other. While your multisensor setup works well for a single door, it falls apart slightly when used for several houses. Even for one house with multiple exits...

    Best way to auto-build walls?

    Why not just move the filler? I.e. let him "room" the biggest square first, break away the blocks in the way, place landmarks in the next available square and let him "room" again? I mean, the filler does not need a square to work. A rectangle of any kind is fine with it. Heres a small animation...

    Where is the line between contraption and exploit?

    Mind sharing the used symbols / the content of the book? :D

    Automatic Door

    Sadly, sans GregTech, there is no real proximity sensor. Even the one from GT is rather basic, as it's always set to a 16 block distance and can't be changed to a smaller range. Which is not so nice, considering you usually don't want all your doors to fling open as soon as someone passes the...

    32x [32x] JohnSmith Technician's Remix

    Weird, I get 1.1Mbit download rate. Seems to be a problem along the line, not the hosting server. And no, I cannot tell why your DSL gets bad rates. Sorry. :-/ Curious as to what could be wrong, I downloaded the most recent JSTR pack - I see the warded glas just fine and the brain / brain in a...

    If there had to be only one energy type...

    For now, as the packs are, I'd go with MJ. It's feeling more accessible than EU (though I like the Bbox, MFE, MFSU system from IC2). Only thing I miss are bigger RE-Cells. And for that matter, a way to use a RE-Conduit with one input and one output face at the same time. BT scares me (a bit)...

    Need a fast way to get rid of watersourceblocks

    Though costly, the MFFS way is the goddamn fastest way to get rid of insane amounts of water. I had a weirdly positioned max size quarry that cut through 2 rivers and had two tiny lakes in its area - combined with the subsurface water sources, I had one laggy monster of water flowing around...

    32x [32x] JohnSmith Technician's Remix

    As far as I can tell from the changelogs (and my own humble additions to the pack), the focus lies on an up-to-date version of the FTB-Ultimate pack. Which in turn includes the DW20/Mindcrack/etc packs. At least activiywise there's not much happening with the Legacy pack at the moment. I know...

    Advanced safe?

    Unless you are living in America, that is indeed the case in most "western" countries - a reasonable suspicion is needed FIRST, before any action may take place against the suspect. What you want is a dictatorship over your servers "citizens". Which in the end usually never works out well. But I...

    Advanced safe?

    What I tried to convey is that some seem to overreact about this whole "I can't access a players advanced safe" thing. I do not understand the problem with this. One should've made sure beforehand that there are no "dangerous" blocks available to a mere player, obviously. So I simply don't get...

    Advanced safe?

    Uhm.. why does an admin have to have access to that safe? I mean, an admin knowing his or her tools of the trade does not have to worry about "illegal" blocks or the likes and if a player wants to store away stuff out of anyone's sight, so be it. And in case it is obvious, that action has to be...

    [General Railcraft Question] Industrial Steam-Engines and overheating.

    Those are the ones saving your engines (does not matter at all, which engine you use), as they "eat up" the excess that would normally overheat your engines. As long as you use the power, it is transferred through the conduits with a loss of 5% - as soon as you do not use any power, the conduit...
