Blood magic to make charcoal to power steam dynamos? :)

Hydrogen generators, biofuel reactors (or biogenerators..I always get the two mixed up in my head). relatively good power, low impact. I'm also really fond of the glowstone/ghast tear dynamo. But only with massive supplies of magical crops.

It probably wouldn't, but I am unclear if Silk Touch currently does anything when used on a block that doesn't normally require it. It interacts oddly with some blocks (Essence Ore and Power Ore are two examples). If it were possible to get an Iron Ore block with FortuneOres, and items like...

Interesting idea. Changes a lot of the dynamic and makes something like a TiCo hammer with fortune even more required. Might be something to play around with...hmm. How does it interact with Silk Touch?

The digital miner is one of my favorite automatic mining devices, and pre 1.7, I was very fond of the hydrogen generators. But must-have? Probably not, when you've got the other laundry list. There's a lot of overlap with TE, BC, and IE.

The function setAllControlRodLevels should be available. Have you tried that one?

Depends, obviously, on whether the authors lean toward the punishment side, or if they decide that education and general usability are worthwhile goals. I suspect the former, because it seems to be the going trend.

I'll have to do more testing to be sure, but even things that bypass armor seem to draw damage from the blood pool before they hurt you, unless you have the Inhibit debuff.

This is relevant to my current thoughts on ore doubling, progression, and hardmode/grindy subjects. I think it could be a positive step forward if ore doubling didn't. I'd like to see a mode where (to pull random numbers right out of my nose) a tier 1 SweetOreMachine gave a small bonus...

Well then...that's right out! :)

At least one. Sigil of the dome makes the liquids afraid of you, and sigil of water probably gives water breathing (not 100% sure since I use a sigil of elemental affinity for water breathing..shame it can't go into the armor...at least in 1.6)

As I said in another thread, I'm not terribly familiar with the limitiations of AgS, but can you setup the dye generation via pulverizer and cyclic assemblers seen a few months ago? (in case the thread is difficult to find, you craft 8 white wool with the dye of your choice to get 8 colored...

Well, no, I played it with a good attitude...I just no longer have the good attitude :) And while your statement is technically correct... with my current attitude toward the minigame it feels slightly duplicitous, since you typically have to research quite a few things in order to get to the...

Simply put, I have to research things I have no interest in in order to unlock things that I am interested in. If I'm making machine frames and redstone conductance coils, it's because I'm making a machine that uses them, and it's something that I plan to use Right Now (or, at least, soon)...

And I felt similar the first and second times. It doesn't take that long. I can get what I want and pick up the rest later. I've got all these cheat sheets to help out, etc. The third time, I unlocked everything (no KAMI installed). That was a looong process, and I didn't use 90% of what I...

Not having played AgS for more than an hour, are translocators not installed? That's my current go-to for bioreactor automation.

@Ieldra, @asb3pe really said it well I think. Thaumcraft research is an incredible timesink that is typically handled to get to some very specific results. The time spent scanning, researching, traveling, node hunting, and finally researching is just .. after the first time, it's tedious...

I look like a walking weapon shop. I've been carrying a shadow steel rapier, enchanted bound sword, cryotheum sword from Redstone Arsenal (whatever it's called), and a wing sword from dartcraft (since I had to give up flight when I went to my blood armor). lol.

As good as Thaumcraft is, it's far too easy to reach a point where the thought of having to repeat it is an unbearable grind for some. I've restarted worlds several times, and shifted servers to play with different groups of friends or because disaster recovery failed and each time I look at...

What mods are available to you? Magical Crops and Bees are the first suggestions.
