I dunno why you guys need two layers. I always have one 5x5 layer with water sources in the corners and a transposer in the middle, and the chickens lay their eggs there just fine.

Planning on running more boilers? With that many stills, you should have plenty of fuel to spare.

Those lasers are yellow. Did you just start it up, or is there still plenty of room for moar power?

Well, then my last suggestion would be managers. Yeah, you'll need additional buffer chests and managers at each crafting station, but now you only need one manager at the first buffer chest, instead of a filter for every table. Do you have a picture of your setup that could help us get a look...

How about installing a regulator between the chest and the retriever, telling it to keep a modest supply of all the necessary ingredients, and use a filter on each side of the chest for each crafting table that is independently pulsed when one table is in use?

I've created an album to demonstrate my suggestion. http://imgur.com/a/eVmAL/embed

You misunderstand. I mean keep the original setup (minus one retriever), and have it deposit to a temporary chest. Then hook filters or a sorting machine to that chest, and have that/those handle the distribution of the item.

This is getting complicated. Why not have one retriever pull the item to a regular chest, with two filters pulling from it, or one sorting machine in the default mode with two columns? Would that work for your situation?

If you apply a continuous redstone signal to the retriever you DON'T want receiving the item, will it reject it and pass it on to the next one? The same way a transposer with a continuous signal rejects items? If this works then maybe you could set up a circuit that pulses one and "locks" the...

I have noticed this same issue with the upgrade from Direwolf20 version 4 to 5.0.1 (local SMP server). Of note, it only seems to happen while I'm near my base with all its machines. Traveling away or to another dimension seems to restore expected loading behaviors. I don't have conclusive...

I hope to someday see a tool that works like EE2's tools. Having control over how fast your pickaxe mined was really nice. Vajra is nice for tougher blocks, but too dangerous to walk around your base with.

Responding to the thread title, I do like Computercraft's computers. I have been able to take complex Redpower circuits and replace them with a single block, while allowing for additional features to be added as I think of them, without needing to re-organize or move a complicated circuit. For...

That hasn't been my experience. You'll get the same EU/t on either end of a line of transformers, without needing 4x for down steps.

I was only suggesting that you could design something to face any direction, not that a design could be switched mid-operation.

I have also successfully tested the bore on frames, and it works well. Since you can aim the bore in all six directions, you could even make a surface-based mobile bore quarry, if a tunnel bore is too boring (haha puns). Someday I will make a UFO with a death ray and use it to demolish...

kcbanner, your base looks like a really fun place for PVP...nice large corridors and rooms and not repetitive. I like it.

Is this an issue I may be able to verify in a single player world, or do you figure it's only apparent when connecting to a remote server?

I was delighted to find that MFFS blocks can be powered by MJ directly, so now my base is protected by a forcefield which requires 50 industrial steam engines to maintain (coming off four biofuel boilers). I had 8 turbines ready to power it, but why go through the rotors? I like biofuel. I...

You need a tallow golem for a crucible. Edit: Fixed, thanks Korenn

I wish the sorting machine's auto-pull feature could be added to filters and transposers as a sort of in-place upgrade, similar to Factorization barrels with their interdimensional storage upgrades.
