What sorts of problems have you run into? I'm curious, because I have just started a system. It's got 5 dedicated industrial steam engines from one of my boilers set aside to power (you know...growth potential). Last night one of our folks fired up three quarries to rip apart a couple of...

It does, you are right. I missed where you mentioned it was an LP boiler. Those are much easier to heat up.

I doubt barrels will work (if nothing else, you're only supposed to be automatically able to pull from the bottom, and the barrel would have to be side-on). A barrel-pipe setup would work, but it defeats the purpose of the attached chest (being easy and automatic with no entities floating...

As stated, my recommendation is to make a large (gold is what I used) chest and stick it next to the boiler but leave the boiler unfinished until you get it done. Get that chest chock-plum-full of charcoal and coal coke. Charcoal is less efficient, per log, than stacks of lumber (especially...

So far I like the XyCraft fabricators to handle my storage block solutions. Not having to automatically pipe out of the ME interface is a nice touch, but I lack sufficient quartz to fully realize the system for some time to come. Thanks for all of the awesome suggestions. This mod, and you...

I thought that setup was for autocrafting things as they're called for in the crafting inferface? What skirty described above is similar to our setup currently.

Well, I thought I could figure this out, but I'm running into a roadblock, so...HELP :) I want to autocraft everything that can into a storage block. No gregtech, so I don't have to worry about using the compressor. I thought I run everything into a packager using an ME Interface, but it...

I didn't know either. I don't use IC2 or any of the sub mods much at all and don't attempt to follow his frequent changes. (Edit to be less of a jerk)

I doubt KingLemming would pursue it, since he designed the crucible to fill that slot based on comments from another thread.

Well, sure, but the lag issue from flowing lava could probably be eliminated if each source block was replaced as it was removed. That's work for single player, multiplayer, and just plain lazy player.

I still like the idea of a pump that replaces lava source blocks with cobble. 'draining the heat', as it were.

There's no need for a turtle to go down to place a block for the landmark. A turtle has the amazingly awesome ability to place blocks on empty space with no connectors (at least, they did in 5.1.1) So you should be able to write two loops (or a function) that iterate from 1 to (max of 64 and...

Yes. The setup below works perfectly to power 18 industrial steam engines.

LOL Well, I did post a bit of working code in a previous thread. enc = peripheral.wrap("right") enc.setAutoCollect(true) while true do sleep(20) if enc.getLevels() >= 30 then turtle.select(16) if turtle.getItemCount() == 0 then print("No more books! Keep up!")...

This, but a little bigger (7 wide) so 2 xp turtles. Have a cow spawner next door so I never have to worry about running out of leather.

If you don't mind asking, why don't you want to go to the end yet? Don't want to deal with the dragon? Or don't want to go searching for the stronghold? If it's the former, the easier answer, imo, would be to go to the end with a turtle, 9-12 stacks of cobble, some torches, a blank linking...

Thaumcraft, agreed.

ah ha. I didn't think place was correct, but I was rushed. Thanks for the correction.

That's a pretty elegant way to do it, actually. Mine is something like (and this is off the top of my head) enc = peripheral.wrap("right") enc.setAutoCollect(true) while true do sleep(20) if enc.getLevels() >= 30 then turtle.select(16) if turtle.getItemCount() == 0 then...
