Couldn't you just create a mystcraft world for ores? You could find a village with bookcases, get a chicken (for feathers) and you're set. In fact that's easier than getting a diamond for twilight forest, so you might want to disallow that as well. Also, maybe make a rule about only making UU...

Fusion reactor definitely, I will try to build one sometime, question is, is it worth it? Now I think about it, second place (even though its not on the list) is the matter fabricator. I mean, getting 20 naturally-occuring idirium ore? Really? Takes forever even with quarries. Again, not on...

On the industrialcraft forums there's a bunch of good reactor designs (hell there's even a thread dedicated to them). You should look there. A word of advice though: the extra copper needed is negligible compared to the extra energy you'll get from using dual and quad cells.

Hardened glass is really blast resistant and is cheap, just 1 piece of obsidian dust + 1 pulverised lead. It can survive any number of tnt, and a 2-thick wall will stop a nuke. Haven't tested a reactor yet, but a 3-thick wall should suffice. EDIT: Just tested a reactor full of quad-plutonium...

New year? Meh, old news, happened 50 minutes ago.

I can't get my quarry to work with the landmarks. I've got 4 of them in a square, I'm placing the quarry next to one of the landmarks but the quarry doesn't detect the landmarks. It just creates the black/yellow lines (quarry boundaries) in the normal size and ignores the landmarks. Am I missing...

Yes, i've researched it... guess i'm screwed until one of the FTB gods tells me a solution.

I've tried making some thaumium, using iron ingots + blaze powder, but whenever I use the wand I just get iron nuggets. I guess this is because the praecantatio isn't being used up, is there a way to make so that it is?

Well, as long as I don't get anything that will destroy the world (decay, meteors etc) I can live with it. Or rather, my quarry can.

Is there some combination of mystcraft symbols, that will make a good mining world? I would really like to include as many dense ore symbols as possible without the world spontaneously disappearing in about 5 seconds due to decay. However, i'm not sure how many I can include, and I don't want to...

Well, I had some spare time so I decided to work out if we would really have a black hole (if you don't like maths or physics, then ignore everything in italics). Seeing as we don't know what the real-life equivalent of minecraft stone is, i'll settle for a rough estimate of the mass of 1...

Hmm, this all sounds very complicated, is there a tutorial for it somewhere?

I see, isn't there a way to do it automatically? I don't want to have to take the LZHs out of the reactor every 5 minutes to cool them.

I've tried making a CASUC reactor to help make better use of my uranium supplies, using LZH condensers to cool it. I'm testing one in creative, but whenever I try pumping lapis into it, it just pops out of the reactor without doing anything. I know 1 piece of lapis will cool 1 LZH by 40k, does...

When you're forced to make a new save, you can just get back all your stuff with NEI right? That's what i'll do I think, not done with this world yet, still plenty of stuff to make.

Although its kinda late-game, I feel compelled to add the GraviChestPlate acts as an ultimate lappack (stores 10 million EU, same as an MFSU) as well as acting as a quantum chestplate (as well as letting you fly). Thats the only armour integrated lappack AFAIK.

In my opinion, the best thing about GT is that it gives me a use for my UU matter. I don't have loads of it, but after making quantum armour, its not really that good (there are far quicker ways of getting diamonds or redstone or what have you). Admittedly, the endgame GT stuff isn't necessarily...

Has anyone else suggested Balkon's weapon mod? I mention it because at the minute we don't have any range weapons apart from the bow (mining laser uses too much energy to be viable, unless you have an ultimate lappack or something). Also cannons are just epic :)

Just wondered if anyone knew any good fission reactor designs involving thorium or plutonium.

I just found 2 iridium ore in the nether, is that supposed to happen? (I've yet to find any in the overworld, but it looks so alike to sliver/lead ore i've probably seen a few and gone straight past them).
