    Blood N Bones [Hardcore Survival]

    It aims to provide a difficult survival experience through expensive tiered technology, revamped vanilla mechanics and dangerous new creatures. Most other modpacks are just a big collection of mods; this has custom recipe changes to integrate them better.

    Tips for resources and power?

    I'm not sure how many cows each sewer can take, because it has a limit to how fast you can pump out of it. But, if a sewer can take handle 20 cows, it will be the same whether they are directly over it or in a pen with a range upgrade. The range upgrade increases it's harvest range. I just...

    Tips for resources and power?

    As Slowking said, MFR tree farm is cheap and easy power and it works for both EU and RF. Build a MFR Planter, Harvester, Composter, Fertilizer and Sewer. Build a pen for animals, put the sewer in the center and put a range upgrade in the sewer the same radius as your pen. Pump the liquid sewage...

    Creative Portable Tank with steam in it?

    Blood N Bones [Hardcore Survival]

    That is because the Magma Crucible is moved to late-game. Rather than making resources valuable, it prolongs the time required to acquire it while not addressing the initial problem. For example, the Steam Dynamo recipe changed to require a bit more redstone, iron, tin and copper. You also have...

    Blood N Bones [Hardcore Survival]

    Yes, just like how Steam is treated as a fluid. Not a technical problem, just that it's far too easy with the default cooling value of water. As I explained in my previous post, you are capable of producing 960 million RF with a small lake of water, which does not seem to be consistent with the...

    The compression dynamos need liquid coolant. What other mod adds liquid ice?

    Blood N Bones [Hardcore Survival]

    Also, as far as I know, the ice it is referring to is Forestry's crushed ice, which is not in your modpack. Would you be able to add your own liquid ice? Keep in mind that the Glacial Precipitator can make ice blocks and snowballs very cheaply, so you'd have to find a way to balance that if you...

    Blood N Bones [Hardcore Survival]

    Yeah, I know it already has it tiered like that. But, with the default values there is no reason to use the other coolants, as I said in my previous post. I meant to balance it around the new value you use for the water.

    How would you feel about making gelid cryotheum the primary coolant for engines? You could nerf water in the TE fuel config so they can start out with it but eventually need to transition into the cryotheum. Balance it to go water -> ice -> cryotheum. That way coolant could be tiered like you...

    How do I produce Nature Essence automatically?

    IIIRC every Magical Crop has a 10% chance to drop Nature Essence if broken by a player. If it is broken by something else, like a golem or MFR farm, it drops seeds with a metadata value that will never drop it.

    Yes, you have to place it directly above the water.

    Blood N Bones [Hardcore Survival]

    I emptied it with the Buildcraft pump in a different modpack, to test the water quantity and to provide a visual without it being replaced with stone.

    Blood N Bones [Hardcore Survival]

    Ah, my experience with Metallurgy machines is fairly limited. You can produce ~68,000 RF with a Steam Dynamo per bucket of water. A fairly small lake of water, like in the below image, has a deceptively high amount of water; 14,100 buckets. Excluding charcoal processing and pump costs, you...

    Blood N Bones [Hardcore Survival]

    Isn't this a huge buff? Before it was 8 sawdust -> 1 compressed sawdust -> smelt -> 1 charcoal. Now it's more profitable than smelting the log directly into charcoal, and hugely more profitable than the default sawdust. Default config Saw 8 logs = 800 RF * 8 = 6400 RF 8 sawdust -> 1 compressed...

    Greyscale is pretty easy. I'm not the best builder for aesthetics, but I think this looks decent. This is the entrance hub to my base. The walls are Edged Stone with Alternate Border Stone in the corners, and Border Stone separating the walls from the ceiling and floor. The ceiling and floor...

    [Solved] How do I extinguish this?!

    The fire breaks the pump. I had to use the sponge from OpenBlocks to destroy the oil and then repair the water.

    Rainbow Forest manually spawns them to prevent taint from changing the biome, which can be disabled in the config. I'm not sure if it's considered magical, though.
