    Me interface not hooking up to my network.

    No worries :) I had similar issues when I moved to AE2 from AE1. Nowadays i'm really obsessive about cable management, I have cable anchors literally everywhere!

    Me interface not hooking up to my network.

    If that's an import bus on the ender chest, you're using 8 channels before you added the second interface. I'd make sure the interfaces and crafting chambers etc below are connected to a separate cable coming from a different face of the controller

    Could you include a screenshot? It'll make it easier to diagnose :)

    Those little things that irk you about Minecraft

    That's basically it. I want to siphon off most of the power for extractors and borers etc and just have the small remainder for RF. But yeah, that's just my test world, in my actual legit world I'll be using a second shaft power bus setup to split things down for the dynamos. Still works out...

    Those little things that irk you about Minecraft

    Yeah i'll definitely need to tinker with my setup before I use it. In the meanwhile, here's something i've been tinkering with in my test world to reduce wasting power. What's coming out of my power bus is 4096Nm at 131072 rad/s (1/16th of the output from my Turbine) This is way too much...

    Those little things that irk you about Minecraft

    Be me. Be setting up a shaft power bus chain. Notice that the power output i'm trying to optimise is starting to drop. Look over at turbine and see it's slowing down and then stopping. Check steam line with angular transducer and see the reactor isn't producing much, if anything all of a sudden...

    Or, swap out the faucets and channels for enderIO conduits. If you end up with less than an ingot's worth in the casting table you can invert the direction of the connectors on the table and drain and just suck it back into the smeltery.

    So just for a challenge, i'm living in the Nether

    Random nonsense: So I got my rftools stuff going on, first dimension i've set up is just an excuse to outsource my uranium production as it was running a wee bit slowly, I wanted to expand it but needed some more floor space to do it. Of course, I needed some sort of building to house it, but...

    What cool little thing have you discovered today?

    But that's so...abusable! Almost like planting thermalilies on those floating platform thingies so lava won't destroy them, then just using an export bus to keep a lava source block on hand for whenever they're ready to generate again :3

    Those little things that irk you about Minecraft

    Electrolyzers. Particularly for sodium production. There's literally no way to make them tidy. You need a VDG generator, a power supply, an input pipe and two outputs, then for sodium you also need a friction heater to melt the salt first, so you have all 6 faces in use. My neat freak side...

    So just for a challenge, i'm living in the Nether

    So, i'm getting there. Base is running stably enough on my interim power supply: I'm building a healthy surplus of ethanol crystals and jet fuel despite perma-running most of my machines with gasoline engines and Microturbines are just crazily useful when one is just idly producing...

    Are you thinking @Reika is a paid shill for a shadowy cabal of Canola producers? ;)

    Those little things that irk you about Minecraft

    Another personal derp. So I spent ages building my HP turbine, then tinkering with the reactor to feed it. But I found no matter what I did, I couldn't get the bloody thing to turn. I was producing steam, so it should have been fine. I tried getting ridiculous to try and amp up the output...

    Me too. Unfortunately doesn't work though, the boiler won't take it :(

    So just for a challenge, i'm living in the Nether

    About to start setting up my reactor. Normally, in the overworld, i'd set down a big reservoir of water underneath and use liquid transfer nodes to shuffle water into my steam boilers. I'm wondering...can I make a reactor that boils blood? :3 EDIT: Well this is interesting. Steam boilers...

    What cool little thing have you discovered today?

    Now I know this, i'm going to find a way to mass produce the parts. Bedrock is easy to do. Nether stars are fairly simple too (withering bees to make the heads, auto-killers are ten a penny these days) Awakened Draconium is the sticky one. I need to kill Ender Dragons to get hearts for the...

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Nope. That's the best bit about the upgrade, the princess and any drones that will stack with each other get dropped right back into the breeding slots rather than the output slots. You'll end up with 63 drones in the drone slot but anything beyond that will get pulled by your conduits.

    What cool little thing have you discovered today?

    Top mining level, 10ish points faster in mining speed than anything else. You need an awakened core to make one ingot's worth of parts (so 4 nether stars, 5 awakened ingots and a bunch of normal draconium) but totally awesome if you can afford it. Also, combine it with a bedrock tool rod...
