    Just leave them on, they won't explode.

    Well now you've got me curious... Soot

    Automatic Sawdust Compression

    As we mentioned, you'd need something extracting items from the ATC, much like you'd set up a wooden pipe with an engine attached to extract items from a chest, which means without that it can't work. The chest just makes it run more smoothly as the items never actually enter the table, so they...

    Automatic Sawdust Compression

    So yea, looking at his setup it should be sawmill -> chest -> ATC connected to wooden pipe + engine/aut gate or some RP2 machine that draws items from something.

    Automatic Sawdust Compression

    I was typing that as you posted your picture :X Thought the recipe was a full 3x3 grid, which the packager can do, but it can't do the 3x3 with an empty center. You can try what I mentioned in the edit above though.

    Automatic Sawdust Compression

    I thought you had to use something to pull items out of the auto-crafting table for it to work, rather than it just crafting and dropping items. Also, there's the factorization packager that you can try out. It tries to craft items in a 2x2 grid, and then in a 3x3 grid, so it should automate...

    FTB Ultimate Pack..

    Well, iirc slowpoke just said there would be a pack released for 1.4.6, not that it would be the ultimate pack. Even then it was an expectation that wasn't met, as the mindcrack pack came out a bit later than what he stated. That said, in this time of waiting I've managed to get a char from...

    Found the quote, took a bit cause the search wasn't helping me find it so I just went through threads I posted in :X

    Humus Farm Help

    Hmm, I'm gonna see if I can find that post on how to atumate carpenters that was posted here before, brb. Edit: In the mean time, make sure you're giving it water for the recipe and set up a pipe to automatically draw items from it. Edit Again: Also, do you have an engine attached to it?

    Humus Farm Help

    Well, first I have to ask, have you tried piping in from all sides, and are you using BC pipes or RP tubes? Also, there is a solution that I have that could work, but would be too expensive for a single carpenter, so I want to exhaust other setups first. Edit: Also, from looking on the wiki...

    Institutional Hypocrisy: FtB's role in infringing Mojang's copyright.

    From my understanding of copyright law, by Mojang not taking actions against mods they have given implicit approval to modify their game. Another thing to note, making a mod that adds onto the code of a game and distributing that is incredibly different from distributing the code of the game...

    CHALLENGE: Inter-dimensional/Long Range EU Movement... w/Limitations.

    First, do you want the system to be completely automated? This is fairly important as some solutions require some form of player input. Second, is this challenge just for EU, or does a conversion of MJ to EU and EU to MJ also count for this system? If you don't mind having player input and...

    Random Witch Spawn

    For the TC3 trees, they have aura nodes in them, and the ones that spawn naturally tend to be of a decent size. As for what to do with the tree, destroy all the leaves and chop down the wood, you'll mostly want the saplings from them right now due to them making new aura nodes when they grow...

    Buildcraft quarry (What is best way to power it???)

    With peat at the charging station it would still take way too many engines than you'd want to produce of that type. Energy cells have a high storage capacity (600k MJ iirc) and, unless your system can put out a lot of juice, it will take a while. If your charging station will be stationary...

    getting started with Thermal Expansion?

    The only problem with factorization's "tripling" is that it really isn't and it takes 20 minutes for the last part of the process. The reason it's not actually tripling is that it works on a system of averages, where several of the machines give you 140% or 160% or 150% of your input as output...

    crushed ice and other fluids.

    Yes, and that situation would also imply no water whatsoever would be able to keep it cool, making the crushed ice thing a moot point.

    Factorization: Sell me

    The ash thing is only if you're using peat engines though, and later on why bother with those when you can use boilers, since engines can also be a bit difficult to automate properly as they have the same issues as moisteners. Also manure (as compost is still called on the wiki for some reason)...
