    rhn's continued adventures: a build journal, guide collection etc.

    For future reference, check out AromaBackup. Mine is set to make new saves on launch, every 30, and on quit. Saved my bacon a few times.

    Never saw those before Agrarian Skies, so sorry, don't have a proper answer...couldn't you plant the 3 you have and farm them?

    BevoLJ doesn't seem to have issues with too much RAM, but he's also got a beast of a PC: http://i.imgur.com/fH2KU5Q.png :D Holy almighty, if I was a mod on the boards, I'd be known for doing just one thing...editing people's bugreport posts to put their bugreport in spoiler or code tags...

    Heh, your desktop looked normal (Windows drivers), but turns out you didn't actually have 3D drivers (manufacturer) installed? :D Been there, done that.

    What do I do next?

    Heh, yeah, be careful of that. You can also get pulled into the turbine and killed if you're not wearing bedrock armor; it's heavy enough to keep you on your feet. Or, just enclose the back of it so nothing gets pulled in. Best way to make jet fuel is to automate it. First step is a a...

    By "platform", do you mean to say you're playing flat-map? Yeah, there are nodes. There's a 100vis node of each primary aspect roughly equidistant N, S, E, W...not sure which direction is what, but the order is aer, aqua, ignis, terra, and up (ordo), and down (perditio). Early game you can...

    I think your options are a bunch of dynamos like you don't want, a railcraft liquid boiler which is slow to heat up, or possibly RotaryCraft engines, which in a recent update can use those fuels, or in older versions they can be converted to work IIRC. Of course, that requires an out of scope...

    I'm assuming the answer to my question was "yes", sorry if I wasn't clear on the question. So assuming Yes, you infusion craft a warding focus, then can log out, log back in, and you both have your wand focus, AND your nether star is still sitting on the center pedestal, right? First, it...

    Have you completed those quests yet? I'm guessing not, as otherwise you'd have noticed that once you complete the small stage, you unlock a new quest, with the larger quantity. That is the one with the epic reward bag too. BTW, the glass was/is 10,000 of the two types.

    Wood? Thought there wasn't "mining levels" with the hammers, just that they varied in speed and durability. I threw a stack of obsidian in one AA, with another hammering blocks (setup to automatically hammer ore gravel/sand down to dusts), and got a pile of shards from it. I only had one...

    Custom? Didja mean "RotaryCraft based", or "Reika based"? I've been meaning to toss together a pack with at least RoC, ElectriCraft, GeoStrata, Rainbow Trees, and might as well do his expanded Redstone one too, in addition to the other mods I've grown to know and love from other packs. TechWorld...

    I didn't remember the name of the angular transducer in my first post, but that is what I was referring to with checking the pipe. Glad you got it sorted. Do you have engineers toolbox? You could use a modular socket with the appropriate sides, feeding BC pipes to the steam engine. That's how I...

    Rotarycraft pipes work different from the BC pipes and fluiducts you may be used to. They require pressure to flow water, not just the presence of water in the pipe and a valid destination. What are you feeding the pipes from? The reservoir? A RC pump? Or a different model water output block...

    Unless, and I'll check later and update if it's the case, my magma crucible and fluid transposer are straddling a chunk boundary, no. If I have them transfer through adjoining sides, I get exactly what I should. If I run through 2 fluiducts across the top of the two, I get excess fluid.

    What do I do next?

    Just keep a calculator handy, so you can easy get the exact numbers for the big numbers, e.g: 2^16=65536, not 64,000 and 2^12=4096, not 4000. Mostly used for setting speeds on industrial coils. It's mostly addition, ratios (2:1 gearbox will run the output twice as fast at half the torque, or...

    There's more changes than that, but a person can look through the config file and see what all is changed. It does change the game balance to remove it entirely, but when you're playing SSP and have OP available anyway, it's an arguable point on how much difference it makes. Likely due to the...

    You infusion crafted the wand focus warding, which infuses several items into a nether star. Then picked up your new wand focus once complete, then after logging out/back in, there was still a nether star on the center pedestal, which you were able to pick up? I can tell you that was not my...

    Edit: Doh! Reading fail...you were saying ALSO netherrack. Soul sand, perhaps? I was running low in nether quartz, so started tossing the output of my sand->soul sand setup into my sieves and was picking up the occasional broken ardite and cobalt ore. Plus free ghost tears, and other goodies.

    My vacuum hopper wasn't transferring to an item duct on input mode, I had to power the input to empty the hopper. I was confused watching LPs when I'd see folks do that, until I tried it myself. I'll double check in case I goofed, but that's my results. I don't remember where I saw it, but...

    You got two directions to go already, but I'm just curious...what's wrong with the induction smelter? Does it need a resource you don't have yet?
