    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Can someone explain to me the difference in using a managed or manual peat multifarm, other than being able to place down the peat and water yourself? Doing some testing, it seems like having more waterblocks around peat actually makes the peat grow faster, so there doesn't seem to be much of an...

    Windy Bees

    Well, there's your problem. You're having terrible luck.

    How much biofuel does it take to start a steam boiler?

    Just to add my few cents here; isn't 1000 buckets of ethanol a bit on the high side to accumulate before starting the boiler? Considering the fact that it will take quite some time before the boiler has consumed the 700 buckets needed to reach max temp, and the fact that OP will continue making...

    Windows .exe Multipart blocks disappeared after relog/visiting the nether?

    Doing some further reading it appears this is a known issue, so feel free to ignore this. For anyone experiencing the same problems I did, however, try using a piston to fill the 'ghost' blocks; it worked for me :)

    Windows .exe Multipart blocks disappeared after relog/visiting the nether?

    Hi, I'm having a weird issue on a server I'm playing on. We are all playing the default version of Unleashed, so I'm pretty sure its a server issue since it seems there aren't anyone else here with this problem. Basically, I was playing with the multipart blocks earlier today, then logged off...

    Soo... Why exactly is it impossible to automate a Steam Turbine?

    I'm a bit late to ask this, but CJ, you were saying on tuesday that you based your decision on beta feedback. Would you consider doing another feedback round and see what the majority wants now? After all, a lot has changed since Railcraft beta... Yeah, but we've tested that and it doesn't work...

    Working Oil Well In FTB

    Some oil spouts in newer versions reach down to bedrock. At the bottom of these kinds of spouts, there is a type of bedrock block that will slowly generate oil. It's slow, but at least it's there :)

    Working Oil Well In FTB

    Dear me this looks great! What else is really awesome is you're using buildcraft, a mod that many has left by the wayside. This proves that used correctly, buildcraft can and will look amazing! It's too bad you're playing the older version though, newer versions made some rare oilspawns...

    What mod adds these puddles?

    Are the puddles server- or client-side? They're incredibly ugly and I just want to get rid of them, but I play on multiplayer server hand have no connections to the higher-ups, so I can't do anything to the config if it's indeed a server feature.

    Logistics Pipes Vs. Applied Energistics

    Oh man, I'm actually really stoked that Logistics Pipes finally made its way to FTB. AE is incredibly powerful, that's for sure. But I will still use both, because AE is severely lacking in some areas, mainly item management. I plan on setting up a laser factory with several tables making...

    Lets See Some Bases! Give Us a Tour!

    That looks very nice, I love huge builds. Me and my brother is actually doing something similar right now, but we're pretty dang slow at it. Will post something of my won once we get on with it, in the meantime, I'll be looking forward to seeing your updates. I should start taking pictures...

    Best Biofuel/Ethanol setup for Unleashed?

    Fermenters can take creosote now? Whats the modifier? 1.5, same as fruit juice and honey?

    Soo... Why exactly is it impossible to automate a Steam Turbine?

    I am one of those :P I have just started playing on a server with my brother, and both me and him can't log in every day. I would imagine I'd have to start off every session by replacing rotors, and that could become expensive fast :) I do have some ideas of the base going in emergency mode or...

    Soo... Why exactly is it impossible to automate a Steam Turbine?

    Yeah, it's a pity. This basically makes the turbines way too much trouble for people who want large amounts of power. That being said, since GT is no more there aren't that much to spend EU on anymore. I was thinking of powering a mass fab full time and some teleporters (mystcraft is banned on...

    Soo... Why exactly is it impossible to automate a Steam Turbine?

    Same, but with Railcraft 7.3.0.0 instead. So, did Direwolf lie? Was this possible back then, and Dire has just neglected to mention that his automation isn't working anymore? :P So many questions :)

    Dumb Tinkers Contruct Tricks

    So... does that axe work on Seqoia trees? cause... dayum. If I might hijack the thread a little, anyone know where to direct a newb at TC to some videos or some such in the vein of the Beecademy videos that could help me start? There's just so many materials and stuff I dunno where to begin :x

    Soo... Why exactly is it impossible to automate a Steam Turbine?

    Yeah, Direwolf made a similar setup I think. Though I've been skimming through his episodes and couldn't find it... zzz. sent him a message asking if it was still working, here's hoping he's not too busy.

    Soo... Why exactly is it impossible to automate a Steam Turbine?

    Still have to insert them manually though :\ But I like the idea! Maybe a steampowered obsidian pipe would have enough range to be able to pick the item up from anywhere? A golem would probably do the trick as well.

    Soo... Why exactly is it impossible to automate a Steam Turbine?

    Er, you can insert the rotors with AE? I've tried sides, front, top and bottom, but it refuses to cooperate. What's your trick? Also, for some reason, my rotor crafting recipe is turning up as red in the assembly chamber, even though I have all the components (the disks). So my crafting doesn't...
