There's a relatively new mod called VanillaFix (https://minecraft.curseforge.com/projects/vanillafix) which drastically improves load times and performance (well, it does for me!), if it's not in the pack, try adding it.

Version 0.76 will be available soon (awaiting approval). Main feature is adjusting the assembler recipes to use the item being crafted as a blueprint, to avoid the assemblers crafting other items if resources run short. Also added the Electric Furnace and the Cobblegen-5000 Module Upgrades have...

So been looking more at Advanced Rocketry and asteroid mining (this gives Osmium and "Unusual" Ore, for late game progression). Boy is it so Slooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooow. Seems you need to launch at least 30 satellites just to get a good amount of "Data" to find the asteroid and...

Odd, the link in my sig is the permanent link: https://discord.gg/RpSXHBj

Confirmed, just rotated the standard assembler, placed one of the upgrades, and bingo, structure no longer works. Damn!

Not yet :D Took a break after discovering things are a bit weird with the modifiers. There's something I want to test (I have a sneaky suspicion that the modifier blocks base positions are not being rotated to match the controller (and so the rest of the structure), which means modifiers can...

@GamerwithnoGame FYI, with the modifier system, I found the X and Z co-ords have been swapped when detecting modifiers. So the block at x": 2, "y": -1, z": 0 currently needs the modifier to point to x": 0, "y": -1, z": 2. Here's the Standard Assembler with all upgrade modules, confirmed all...

Been playing with the Machine modifiers, discovered that one blockspace can only be assigned one modifier block. If you define a list of modifier blocks in the same block space, only the last one defined is registered. As a result all 3 modifiers can be applied to a machine as long as they are...

Wow, what sorcery is this? It's not cubes.

I'm thinking of making use of some of the chisel blocks, removing them from the chisel system. The Spinning Fan for Speed Module (+20% speed, +20% RF/t as a result - basic assembler and standard asssembler both can accept 20% max with their current input plug) The MegaCell Battery for reducing...

Small energy! Small energy! Small energy! - screaming in my mind :P Factory is starting to take shape nicely, and that's just the beginning. I think the best option regarding the metal press is to setup a dedicated area for making plates and gears, using some detection system when storage is...

I always lower the sound volume in the config. I don't mind the machinery noises, but they are too loud by default. Those silencer upgrades will be there and not locked behind any research.

The only thing I can't do is have increased power usage as well as speed/efficiency. But TBH that's not a big deal, the minecraft stuff is either more expensive to build, or more awkward (or both!). But I'll restrict the upgrade to just one type, so you have to choose what you want to do...

Yeah, I've been looking at modifiers too. There are some issues. Only one modifier (so you can't increase speed and power usage), the block being used must not be a meta of the blocks used within base machine. Speeding up the machine keeps the same total RF requirements, so increases the RF/t...

Unfortuately that would mean having to loop the "blueprint" back into the machine for continuous autocrafting, I can see where you are coming from though regarding AE2. AE2 is really near end game (and totally optional), so I think for this pack, I'll have to not factor in AE2. Am I missing a...

Each machine has something unique about it, that way I can lock it behind stages, but I can see the need for that machine blueprint system, it's not easy to make a machine that's different enough. Similar recipes are not a real issue in normal Minecraft, but the Factrio style is a few components...

The fluid inputs/outputs also support Mekanism gases. The shape can be anything (see here: https://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/manufactio-minecraft-factorio-hybrid.283615/page-7#post-1996745) my first machines. The mod includes a tool for highlighting the blocks to make the structure, so...

The smallest I've done is 4 blocks (controller, input, output and power)

Its' not quite random, it has a priority system based on avaiable materials. What I'm going to do is change the recipe so that the item you are crafting is part of the recipe, but it's not actually consumed as part of the craft. This makes the recipe totally unique and will stop the assembler...

Yep, any block. Worth testing though with Tile Entities, but so far, I've used MagneticCraft Inserters and IE Pre-Heaters fine. Allows for some more visually interesting builds.
