    I think I'm going to do something completely crazy...

    Im going the opposite way, was thinking my next pack would have BC, ic2, gregtech, forestry, Steves carts, project red and railcraft and nothing else. No extra bees either. Pipes full of stuff are just satisfying for me, for some reason. Would like to drop all the new mods. I think the one...

    Greg, you've done it...AGAIN !!!

    The part about the electric circuit factory is really what Greg is trying to do IMO. It sets up game progression also. The cutters are inefficient and it pushes you to make a machine that works more efficiently. Hammers are the worst for plates so you make a Bronze Age machine that saves you...

    Best New Modular Powersuit Setup?

    I do like tc4's flight but don't usually use the magic mods. Thaumcraft in General seems to be a pretty good mod for balance IMO, maybe I'll try it. I heard there was a change to research too, seems it's not as time consuming.

    Best New Modular Powersuit Setup?

    I don't like it either, I went back to ic2 jet packs and use gregtech recipes for MPS so other people can get a suit if they want. At least the ic2 jetpack makes you lose armor protection. You can configure MPS pretty well so that's nice. Increase power costs, reduce armor points per piece etc

    Finite Water?

    I don't use chunkloaders so then the railcraft tanks don't give me too much water. If I play for an hour and run some steam engines for 10 minutes, my railcraft tanks have 50 more minutes to recover the water lost to the engines. With chunkloaders they would gather another 23 hours before I...

    Well what is weird is that it changes if i close the ftb launcher and restart. That made me think it was not some config file issue. Ill try it though.

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Would anyone have ideas on why some recipes would disappear and reappear in NEI? I thought that just some recipes were not working for me, but today I was in the process of making a plate bender, logged out so my daughter could play an SSP world, and when I got back on my server later... no...

    Finite Water?

    this was my theory, if you remove railcraft tanks other ways to collect water, you really have to build near the ocean. Too restrictive IMO.

    Finite Water?

    Just thought id add my thoughts here Mudkip, even though we have already discussed this. :) Im currently playing in my world as if water was finite, without using a mod to actually enable it. This way you dont ruin a tiny pool of water by grabbing a bucket out of it, but I don't allow myself...

    Insert key creates a waypoint for Opis, which is I think the default map for Dw20.

    Found this in the DW20 pack

    Yeah i just saw a different one today in the launcher log, there were like 4 lines of it. Does not come across as very mature.

    Because the mod author is friends with direwolf20. Uses: the green crystals can be used for xycraft soil, which is really really powerful. The green crystals will be the only one you can conceivably use in bulk. A stack of the quartz crystals will cover you, as they are only used in tank...

    1.6 Alternative to RC Boilers for 100MJ+ power ?

    Kind of a necro on this post, but could you or someone else explain this? I think the nerf the original comment was talking about was the fuel nerf, but I think you are talking about the power? That buildcraft really buffed its conductive pipes, but people still see the loss of TE conduits as...

    I was looking for fuel efficiency. I read aobut a BC/railcraft fuel nerf, but i think the wikis all have the old numbers. So I cant tell how to compare dynamos to bc engines and boilers.

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    I thought dynamos were set to run just as efficient as BC engines are? Did something get changed?

    Compact windmills and their related rotors

    Right click on the windmill, then in the Gui that comes up, put the rotor in the blank box.

    Question about Opis: We are seeing less mobs about, so i ran the command iwth opis to find and list number of entities. It shows 14 creepers for example. I had thought this meant it was only showing what entities were in chunks that I had loaded, but it also shows 1440 'dropped items'. I...

    No, Im about 1000 blocks from spawn. Had forgotten about this though, this is good to remember.

    I have chicken chunks disabled in dw20 though, weird. For some reason my base is still running when I log off, but i only have personal anchors in the area. I have one world anchor a bit away from me, just to keep the overworld loaded on the server. Strange.

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Arent personal anchors supposed to shut off after the player logs off? For some reason, they are keeping chunks loaded after I log off of the game. Anyone have experience with these that might shed some light on why they would act like world anchors?
