    Automated Apple Oak Farm

    Always a sound indea. I have found that almost any type of treefarm (Steves, Forestry or MFR) is capable of supporting at the very least one solid and one liquid boiler, usually more.

    Starting new

    I have to say that I don't agree with Miguk's idea of cheating in an Industrious and Imperial line. Yes, it can work and give you some idea of how to work with higher level bees and their machines, but I think that if you really want to understand how bee breeding mechanics works then the...

    Mindcrack & Logistic Pipes ?

    There is a version of Logistics Pipes that I have seen work with Mindcrack. However you will have to modify some item IDs for it to work, otherwise you will just crash.

    Books

    Havent been reading too much of late however the Emberverse series by S. M. Stirling I found quite entertaining. Very nice alternative history/fantasy. Just try to imagine the modern world instantly losing all electricity, gunpowder, and gasoline as well as all other forms of high power...

    Looking for ideas for a door

    The reapearing and vanishing blocks are all found around the Dark Towers in the Twilight Forest. They make some pretty awsome doors.

    How to make a good tree farm?

    Thats an interesting idea tunnen... perhaps you could even set the sorting machine to wait until it can send out 3 full stacks of wood.. that way its much more likely to keep enough to fuel the cart with something.

    How to make a good tree farm?

    Tried that too. But then you run into the problem of transfering stuff from one cargo manager to another. I finaly decided that I'm overthinking the whole process so I decided to dumb it down and use a filter and about 8 detector tracks. Simple but effective.

    And fail.. Sticky pistons cant move sorting machines at all. sigh...

    How to make a good tree farm?

    After some testing I found that the sorting machine does not respond to a redstone signal to turn it off or on, however I like your idea about using a sticky piston.. I never would have thought of that. Now I gotta go try it. :D

    Lets See Some Bases! Give Us a Tour!

    Vyron I see nothing here that you should be ashamed of. With your flooring, large windows and little beehive decoration your starter home looks far better than my typical hole in the ground after 3 hours.

    SC Treefarm and Making Insufficient Sapplings

    Well if I were to make one of the multi-block farms which one would it be? I haven't been able to do much research on them and Sengir's wiki is a little vague. If anyone could direct me to a non-video tutorial or wiki about the different types and functions of the farms that would be great. I...

    SC Treefarm and Making Insufficient Sapplings

    Well I checked the SC2 wiki and didn't see anything in the changelog about saplings or the treecutter at all. I don't suppose Sengir may managed to change vanilla sapling droprates through Forestry? I can't seem to find the changelog for that atm.

    SC Treefarm and Making Insufficient Sapplings

    Well I can go into more detail on my setup. Cargo manager on top of cargo distributor. Sorting machine pulls from distributor right into an item tesseract which delivers into a basement chest. Another sorting machine pulls from the chest and sorts the items into barrels for logs, saplings and...

    SC Treefarm and Making Insufficient Sapplings

    The only dumb question is the one left unasked.. oh and that one. :D Oak of course. That does raise an interesting point though. Perhaps I should try one of the new multiblock farms? Or maybe try to breed up a tree that drops more saplings. Even though I haven't messed with tree breeding at...

    SC Treefarm and Making Insufficient Sapplings

    Golrith the cart is being fueled with logs on a seperate manager system so its not burning the saplings. I am starting to wonder if the dimensions of the farm might be part of the problem. If perhaps I space out the trees more or even the space between the tracks won't I produce less logs but...

    SC Treefarm and Making Insufficient Sapplings

    Recently I have found that my Steve's Carts treefarm isn't producing as many saplings as I would like. Right now it is at 16X16 in an E design. I usually dont build them quite so large but I have run smaller setups in the past without much trouble. Now this produces more than enough logs to...

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Kirin there are also new cobblestone huts/libraries that spawn. They're full of bookshelves and usually 2-4 myscraft sybols on lecturns. Plus there is usually a chest hidden behind one of the bookshelves that contains more.
