    Applied Energistics 2- ME System Question

    I always make sure my cables only have a single path for exactly this reason. The first time I used AE2, I quickly got sick of entire rows of devices flickering on and off as the network repeatedly tried to recalculate path lengths or whatevs. So now, I tend to mass-produce cable anchors and...

    What are these posts?

    On that note, I have some pills and a potentially nonexistent bride to sell you. Please gief bitcoins :)

    Tinkers and me

    Way back in the day I think you could. Putting the tool through an MFR disenchanter worked for a bit if memory serves. Definitely isn't the case any more.

    Colin's adventures in 1.12

    I did not know that, I'll try and find a way to work them in...somehow. At the moment i'm using a good old SSD setup, so Storage Bus->Interface->6x Storage buses->6xDSUs, rinse/repeat. I'll have to do some comparisons and see if the black hole controller is more efficient than doing it like this.

    Colin's adventures in 1.12

    So yeah, I decided that having tens of thousands of units of ore taking up space in my inventory was getting to be a bit of a pain in the behind. Only problem is, I really don't like half-measures and the expansive ore-processing center I have planned will need a whole bunch of channels...

    Colin's adventures in 1.12

    It's a 1-or-2 hit kill on most mobs. Durability isn't so much of an issue now i've used a mod slot for mending moss. It's always in my hotbar and I spend long enough faffing about that it's usually fully repaired before I need to use it again

    My sword is commanding me. Is this a sign from Colin?

    1.12.2 Power Generation

    I'm using a Big/Extreme Reactor at the moment. Not gone overboard with it, just churns out about 9k RF/t. I might give nuclearcraft a look when I come to set my endgame power supply though. Hopefully it has some powerful but tricky and involved toys to play with

    Colin's adventures in 1.12

    Eh, it's more just a wry documentation of my playthrough with a liberal sprinkling of Colin, but if it becomes an issue for a mod, feel free to shuffle it to community showcase :) In that vein, Colin is hungry and must be fed with the souls of the damned a large amount of resources. Luckily...

    Besides MC, what have you been playing lately?

    Stellaris. Putting the cider back in "Genocider" :3

    Revelation, another useless FTB pack

    Colin is to AE what Shai'Hulud is to the Fremen Other mods come and go, but Colin remains. Forever and always :)

    Colin's adventures in 1.12

    Also there's a Skelington in my smeltery. Lol. I should put something molten through it for a laugh. Other side of the room, my early-game control center I've got a decent amount of hillside I can dig into as Colin expands. Trying to decide whether he's going to have an underground...

    Colin's adventures in 1.12

    So, one has already posted Colin's first steps into the brave new world. It's early days yet, but the beginnings of noodly appendages are beginning to take shape Early storage. Subnetting, not a big deal. Meanwhile in the basement, an automation has taken place. Latex production...

    Revelation, another useless FTB pack

    Oops! Muh bad. I don't think i've actually used them since they were renamed. Like, 1.5 or 1.6 or so. I don't remember them needing that previously, but I am getting old so maybe they did.

    Revelation, another useless FTB pack

    So I installed Buildcraft, which helpfully tells me it's still in Alpha. It also seems to have gone back to good old MJ, so my RF cables won't attach to my good old-fashioned quarry. No biggie, i'll just build a couple of stirling engines and hook em up with kinesis pipes. Oh, kinesis pipes...

    Mid-ish game power storage in Revelations?

    That would also work, it is a bit extraneous when I've already sunk a bunch of resources into a nice powerful reactor though.

    Mid-ish game power storage in Revelations?

    Sounds delightful! Now all we have to do is nag until the tesseract comes back and the mod is perfect :3 Even an upgradeable one that wasn't transdimensional until you hit Resonant tier would do me at this point. I can get by with ender tanks and ender chests but without a tesseract or the...

    Yeah well I live near a factory that makes green and yellow stripey paint.
