    Managing liquids with AE

    Heya! I have a huge xy tank full of biofuel, and im also starting with bees. Last night it ocurred to me that it would be cool to make wax capsules and store the biofuel in them, instead of using the tank. i think it would make for an infinite tank (as long as you have the wax, which is...

    What to use to stop mobs from entering?

    Portal turrets wont fire whoever places them on ultimate, they also fire through iron bars, which is a great way to make pillboxes in the open and keep them protected & working.

    Forgecraft 2 blue lights everywhere?

    If your happy with 10000 then your not a hoarder. The definition of hoarder is that infinite is not enough, you need more infinites!

    AE system going haywire!?!?

    The only way i can think of stuff dissapearing is if your out of space and stuff is somehow being voided/incinerated.

    applied energestics with ic2 machines?

    AFAIK youn have to use an import bus. AE places materials int he mahcine where you tell it to, and then waits until the product "magically" appears in the network. The machine could be a chest in a friend's base, where he logs once a week and crafts a piston for you, AE doesnt care. Its your...

    Pulling and Sorting Items from Quarry (enderchest)

    The main diff i find between tesseracts and enderchests is that one has a buffer andf the other doenst. In my case for example i tend to use chests because i link all my farms and such to the chest. if i used tesseracts (assuming they transfer up to 1 stack per tick) and 2 items (wood from a...

    Ways to Get Iridium (w/ GT) - And Now Also Talk About A World With No End Portal

    BTW, assuming the stronghold is correctly generated yout dont need a stack of endereyes to find it, ive always foiund that method kinda silly. You can get a great (bordering awesome) approximation with only 2 eyes, throwing them in differnet places, and using the way they are pointing at to...

    Reading Energy Cell power levels w/ Computers

    Do you have enough tesseracts on the sending side? I understood tesseracts will consume 125mj to output 100 on another cube, but if you dont have enough power to transfer more than that the machine will run dry no matter what. Tesseracts are the pipe, your powerplant provides the energy, if...

    Ways to Get Iridium (w/ GT) - And Now Also Talk About A World With No End Portal

    If you already nhave platinum-producing bees you can get as much as you wnat, you just have to multiply the setup. if you have an apiary switch to an alveary, if you have an alveary make 100 more (youll need to get into the basic bees at least tho) Bees are self-sufficient, and given enough...

    Reading Energy Cell power levels w/ Computers

    Q: Why dont you use a couple tesseracts directly sending power from your base? I mena, i know your using tesseracts, why not just use MORE tesseracts so that power transfer matches consumption? (also rememeber tess will only transfer 100MJ/t, you might need several)

    FTB Wikki

    Judging from how modern his trolling techniques are i would guess hes a pretty old Troll, like maybe from the Ultima Online era. Back then Trolls smelled slightly better than orcs. Thats my best guess...

    FTB Wikki

    Theres a certain poetic beauty in beating your enemies with their own carcasses i guess. In this case hes not a real necro tho, hes just a disguised Troll with a scythe.

    Getting into steam

    I always do the opposite, i feed my bouilers with planks because charcoal i can use for the boilers, but always having a stock of 5k planks in my AE network is usefull for MANY recipes.

    A few machinery questions

    Level indicator is not an indicator (but it can be used that way). Its called level emitter because it emits redstone. Their purpose is to provide a redstone signal when something happens in the network. For example you could use the redstone signal to enable your extruder-pulverizer-furnace...
