I greatly enjoy the tower approach. radius 10 or so circular rooms (square is probably more space efficient, but I like round rooms) stacked on each other with a headspace of 6 or 7 blocks. Ladders connecting all floors. If a room requires auxiliary space for machines, windmills, outdoor bees...

not really... all it does is make wisps spawn in your base. There is a benefit to moving the node into a sealed wisp killing zone near your lab though.

only a few of them sting you - tropical is one of them. Tropical needs vines and marshy need mushrooms

the only energy conversion I can think of with that in mind is the EU to MJ to Lava to EU using netherrack as a fuel. This kind of makes sense to me as you have to spend netherrack to get this conversion, you can assume it takes only a small amount of energy to receive a lot of energy from the...

lol, maybe the electrician rage goes down a bit and is replaced by physicist rage when you realize that the photovoltaics in question generate a lot of power because they somehow have refined uranium built into them (This is also under the assumption that refined uranium alone produces charge...

you also use an alchemist skin? :D mine is edward elric of fullmetal alchemist I'm curious to see yours :)

I mostly use buildcraft MJ to get things done the way I see the power split is as follows: Builcraft for the automation of basically everything, gathering of bulk resources and generally BUILDING (yay, eponymous mod title) IC2 EU for the creation of gadgets and other wondrous items. I am a...

Remote desktop into the host of a virtual machine with a console open which is X tunnel/ssh'd into the original machine which is remote desktop'd into the host of the virtual... *brick smacks into vovk's head* such arrangements proclaim much density - almost an eternal density...

darkroom for the automation of all the seed and flower types. The bonemeal spawns the appropriate stuff but all of it dies because it's too dark and there's no view of the sky. then all the loose stuff is picked up by obs pipes or transposers or something. It used to be an EE EMC farming strategy.

You sir are silly and should feel ashamed.

meh, I couldn't use simba - the name was already taken for my diamond jackhammer, also I think someone stole the name for the protagonist of some disney movie.

maybe it's a really really really small 4 dimensional object, so that it has many cross sections and shadows in the third dimension, all of which are techinically the same thing and take up the same tiny space in the 4th spatial dimension which I have named fred. so it could look like it has...

hmm... dunno. I really only feel nothing but nostalgia from my avatar, however yours would probably only be creepy if someone were terrified of chesticles, small calibre firearms, or left-handed people.

heh. I thank ye twice for both statements. This picture gave me nightmares as a kid and I wanted to share the awesomeness of Stephen Gammell's art with the rest o' ya :) also @ kirin dave - you can set up around 2-3 crucibles throttled to 16 or 24 MJ per tick so that each gets 8 MJ/tick. Then...

The issue is that flowing lava blocks are not removed if they are next to any other flowing lava blocks or lava source blocks. Flowing lava blocks require more data to be passed from the server to the client (how tall is the source block, how far can it flow). when you pump lava from the nether...

It is called a dark tower http://twilightforest.wikispaces.com/Dark+Tower

items with similar ID numbers will mostly be from the same mod (thresholds nothwithstanding) so if you see something with item id 30906, you can scroll through NEI to the 30,000's and view other items around 30906 that will be from the same mod. This makes it fairly easy to guess which mod an...

I've just done some testing. 4 seem to be stable at 4900.6C (their cooled max) with only 1 accumulator. a tiny bar of air appeared at the top of their water tanks once they reached max, but that bar does not grow or change.

hehe... I said simplest starting off the bat. of course you could make an 8 headed bluelectric monstrosity once you had a quarry up and a flax farm and scarcity is moot :)
