    DartPatch - MFR Planter/Harvester support for DartCraft

    Are you sure it is broken? I know MFR 2.7.5 changed the harvesting mechanic significantly, but Dartpatch was still working with Dartcraft 0.2.16. I don't see anything in the 0.2.17 that'd indicate it should stop working.

    Greg, you've done it...AGAIN !!!

    Greg's had magitech of sorts since at least 1.4.7, maybe someday the magic energy absorber will one day incorporate thaumic fiddly bits.

    Would you build this?

    Because landmines don't require that kind of power :D Although I suppose one could use it for something like light bridges everywhere instead...

    Would you build this?

    I understand they explode, dramatically, if they have too much power. One could charge one up close to that and a second one with the remaining amount and connect the second one to a hidden pressure plate or player detector. It's a bit convoluted but why not. :D

    Would you build this?

    One could weaponize industrial coils with this. I like.

    An Eldritch Abomination from Below the World

    Not really. Twilight portals and Nether portals have specific rules about what they'll link to. Even Mystcraft link books/portals link to a specific coordinate which could be tested for a matching block at/near the endpoint. Maybe the portal shaft could be integrated into part of whatever the...

    Ultra Hardcore suggestions (1.6.4)

    You might want to take a look at Hostile Worlds: http://coros.us/mods/hostileworlds It has zombies digging to you and piling up over obstacles.

    Ultra Hardcore suggestions (1.6.4)

    I highly recommend checking out my signature for suggestions/ideas. The mod I wrote for Sleepless Horrors is a good addition to any server looking to end the ability to sleep (assuming other things that let you sleep like sleeping bags are also disabled). I also highly recommend poaching some...

    Greg, you've done it...AGAIN !!!

    Well I occasionally head over to the IC2 forum and read Greg's GregTech Thread. He releases new versions frequently and talks about what he's trying to do with stuff. One can always just ask too, I just prefer to lurk.

    An Eldritch Abomination from Below the World

    We have lasers and heat rays, are orbital microwave power relays a possibility?

    Greg, you've done it...AGAIN !!!

    The thing with all the different metal types being able to make different fiddly bits for machines is, as far as I can tell, so that eventually you can make machines from different metals and have them look different. The metal type can also change the gui colors. Pretty sure it's not fully...

    An Eldritch Abomination from Below the World

    I'm gonna put down some words, maybe you like some, maybe not. Void belt hubs? Quantum entangled shafts? Half-life testing chamber? Ender lubricant? Inductive couplers?

    RotaryCraft Power Setups?

    Dunno, I thought it was fun building a power bus and figuring out the right gears/divisions/etc.

    RotaryCraft Power Setups?

    I had a large array of steam engines powering an extractor through an industrial coil for awhile. But it was too loud and the neighbors complained so I had to rip it all out for a quieter RF setup that just got converted to shaft power at the extractor.

    Trouble getting Oily Bees

    Extra Bee machines' power costs are also huge. Gendustry does seem quite a bit easier to automate/use than Extra Bee machines and the barrier for entry into grabbing and inoculating specific traits is a lot lower. That's not really a bad thing. The mutatron and advanced mutatron probably need...

    Big Reactor Efficiency and Explotions?

    Probably the same troll physics that inspired diamond armor.

    Big Reactor Efficiency and Explotions?

    Ah, I had it backwards then. On the rednet port, you can do stuff like output the stored energy amount as a percentage. You can then use that information to send a signal back to the reactor to toggle the reactor on/off. Rednet cable can be set to 16 different colors, so multiple signals can...

    Big Reactor Efficiency and Explotions?

    If you're using hoppers or similar, you could have a comparator see if there's anything in the hopper feeding yellorium into its access port and if there isn't, enable the hopper feeding blutonium into the other access port. But that's a fairly vanilla-ish solution. There are a lot of...

    An Eldritch Abomination from Below the World

    So... if it only spawns beneath the bedrock, how does one typically encounter it as other than interesting ambiance? I know there's mod-added things like the Deep Dark that have natural holes, but normally the surface world doesn't. And it is my understanding that bedrock breakers...
