Regarding engines this info might be helpful... Coal Engines: 2 types, small and regular one...They're both easy to make and dont take much room so might as well make the regular...It is slightly more efficient and holds more fuel. Solar Engines: Most people say compact solar engines, but just...

Hmm can't say I've tried either of those, although I do love games with space themes. I was recently looking for a good space game but it's hard finding one that can fill the shoes of freelancer, EvE Online, Homeworld, and Galactic Civilizations 2. I haven't played any of those in years...

Just thought I'd start this up, if there's a similar one already I apologize. I've always been into online games so lately I've been trying out a few of the ones available through steam or that I find through ads and such. They are as follows: Star Conflict: Always loved space games and...

True, nice because it doesn't require cobblestone, but unless things have changed it uses more power than would be used through a magma crucible + igneous extruder cobblestone combo...If you use netherrack you get an even better return w/ the crucible.

Hmm I'm surprised nobody has mentioned Thaumcraft's Crystal Core yet (unless I missed something). http://thaumcraft-3.wikia.com/wiki/Crystal_Core It takes a bit of research and mats to make one, but it's probably one of the more reliable methods of moving a node. If it's a big issue then...

Regardless of which modpack you're using, if you have a solid amount of disposable EU generation (like with ultimate solar panels), electric engines are easy to use and in my opinion more interesting and balanced than alternatives... 1. They are upgradeable using circuit boards. I don't...

For anyone giving ideas out, it may help if you mention which modpack you use (Ultimate, Mindcrack, etc...). That being said, if you use Ultimate, power converters are your friend...Have a bank of generators for EU but want MJ way out in the middle of nowhere? Use powerconverters to make...

Lambert, It's almost impossible to ignore a gentleman creeper superimposed over a British flag. Although the tea leaves something to be desired...I think biscuits...

Oh man I might have to change my all caps title, it's starting to stir up some serious ire...

I apologize for offending your sensibilities with my shameless capitalization. You should apologize for portraying your creeper in such a humanized fashion, I take great offense to pointless things. Just kidding, it's not a real thread unless you pop up to shoot someone down Lambert. Thank...

*looks at lambert's capitalized name....looks at the capitalized "yelling" in his sig...* :confused:

Yeah Wither skellies have a good coal drop rate. If you set them up to be killed as an exp farm you can also collect their heads to summon the Wither boss and use nether stars for all sorts of fun stuff or energy using a magic energy absorber (or converter? beer makes me forget). *As a note...

SHAMELESS BUMP FOR GREAT JUSTICE! Pardon my caps.

To be honest I'm not much of a number cruncher, but I have used the solar turbine for different types of energy. Powerconverters have a feature that's not too well known which allows you to see what output you're getting by just right clicking the box. When I sat there and made a full size...

Thanks! I literally just coughed up some cash for a small 8man server about 3 days ago, but considering it was just me and my friend it's almost TOO quiet... I wish I had bumped into your reply sooner (even though it was just yesterday). I will still take your offer into consideration, the...

Thanks! And thanks for reminding me Lambert, I forgot to add the section underneath it all mentioning the different types of farms you could make to fuel some of these.

I only point out they're worth it in endgame because if you're swimming in mats, you can just put a block down and have power. Steve's Carts tree farms are awesome, but require a bit more forethought and space, and not everyone likes or wants a tree farm.

12. Dragon Egg Siphon: **WARNING** This thing is sort of bugged, I’m not 100% sure if it has been fixed. Basically, it will blow up as soon as the chunk it is in unloads. In addition, if there is one on a siphon and another one is cheated in and put on another siphon, more explosions. That...

7. Blutricity Solar, kinetic generator, thermopile + blulectric engine - More sustainable energy, but I'm not a huge fan of any of these except the kinetic generators. Why? Cause windmills. The solars are easy to make, but to power 1 blulectric engine to it's max 32mj would take something...

There was a forum post recently where people were discussing some cross mod “exploits” or interactions. It’s hard to call some of these actual exploits due to the fact that when it comes to most of the power in FTB, the ultimate goal seems to be sustainability. Now this is my opinion, but it...
