    Redpower going the way of Nandonalt's Mods?

    I vote for Saryan (sp!!!), what RP needs is about 50 more world gen ores that don't have any use until MC 3.2.3.5 :)

    normal lagg?

    Yeah, 1000 chickens is bad.... if you're playing SSp, remember the server is also your computer, so your getting hit twice as hard. If its SMP, well the server's doing alot as well plus you have bandwidth/lag that can also cause you video lag. Lag will get horrible, but you learn to live...

    Drones, pipes, apiaries and cloning

    Consider just mass producing drones with standard apiaries, so your current set up just keeps a full stack in each machine, rather then a single drone? Or, collect all your drones from all the cells into a chest, and then when the first one dies, distrubute all the drones in this one chest...

    steam boilers

    Do you have a water source block touching at least 2 sides of each accumulator? AAs produce water VERY slowly from the atmosphere (and I think in some biomes not at all), placing water source blocks against its faces increases this dramatically. So long as that is the case you should be fine...

    steam boilers

    use 1 accumulator with a water source blocks on each side (4 total if you want to be overly cautious) for several/each boiler(s), no need to have 4 of them. If you don't have source blocks on them, I don't know if normal operation from the "air" is enough and might have been the problem.

    I liked the analogy of buying someone a brand new car, and them then demanding you help pay for gas because it consumes more then they thought it should.

    Bee Mutations

    To get a mutation, you in essence have to make a Hybrid (of the mutation) and THEN roll the mutation chance from my understanding. So pure/pure gives you the highest chance to get your combo since it will always have (2) sources of the mutation you want.

    steam boilers

    On the off chance ^what he said^ Plus.. don't use PUMPS for them, water regen can glitch out in an heartbeat and run your water supply dry. Use the Aqueous Accumulator from Thermal expansion instead for lag/glitch free water. if any chunk along your water run become unloaded, it would have...

    Biomass Vs. Biofuel?

    Yes, conversion costs.. didn't think it was that high though. Issue with using boilers / automation /renewable fuels too much you begin to get blind to the costs of things. its still 5%, but with it being renewable.. it really comes down to how many steps do you want to toy with. Once fully...

    Wither Skeleton Soul Shard - What am I doing wrong ?

    Looting does work, vorpal will not cause wither head drops. I just get them all :)

    Wither Skeleton Soul Shard - What am I doing wrong ?

    DW20 stated in his LP that the intent is to prevent all rare drops from the soul shards, but its not yet implemented. So long as a golem, turtle, player kill them they should drop.

    Biomass Vs. Biofuel?

    I bucket of fuel burns significantly longer then 1 bucket of biomass (40,000 ticks opposed to 10,000 ticks) both run at 5MJ/T so that means the values are 50K MJ - biomass, 200K MJ - BioFuel. Since it takes 10 buckets of mass to make 3 buckets of fuel that still leaves BioFuel with 20% more...

    T5 Endermen Spawner but how to kill them

    Nice! The upcoming DW and MC packs both have the udpated version of computercraft which has an XP storage upgrade for turtles. I don't know if its limited like the brain in a jar, but it looks promising.

    Turn On/Off Timer Using Wireless Remote?

    Use an emerald pipe in place of your wooden pipe, and set its filters to only pull out the ore's you want to clear out of the enderchest. If you play SSP you can also increase your enderchest to its max size (wooden chest I think).

    Redpower going the way of Nandonalt's Mods?

    Elo owes you nothing, get over your self-entitlement and either work around the tool you're given, make your own improved tool, or stop using the tool.

    Wither Skeleton Soul Shard - What am I doing wrong ?

    use a portal gun to move the actual vanilla skelly spawner into the nether and it randomly spawns wither skeletons as well. Soul Shard spawners were fixed and no longer spawn wither skellies

    Building a Statue/Monument with computercraft??

    There is an API on the computercraft forums with a build from schematic program. Then you just have to find a schematic of the statue you want.

    Factorization Router with "Overflow" chests?

    A "real" overflow system is as simple as a emitting a redstone signal when there's no valid inventory for the item in its queue.

    Pigmen reflect damage or something else?

    I thought this at first too, but have not yet seen a thorns enchanted piece of armor. And thorns does'nt reflect damage, it does a static amount of damage in return for the strike, so unless many of them have thorns armor (increasing the chance I'd see something drop) in the pack, its unlikely...
