    Automating the Forestry Moistener

    Sorry for the delay, I just realized I can run the moisteners on seeds and mycelium instead of cobble, and so I've rebuilt and simplified my original design. All it would take to switch to a mossy cobblegen instead of mycelium gen from this is to add in an extruder, chest and loader at some...

    Factory Tutorial Ideas

    Hello FTB forums! I see that people play minecraft for various reasons - to build impressive megastructures, to explore new and interesting lands, or to unlock all the toys and gadgets a mod has to offer. I play minecraft (especially ftb) almost solely to design and build interesting...

    Dumping to BC Pipes

    have ye tried a railcraft item loader to pull items out of a chest and sort into inventories along the line of the track? A trick is to have enough buffer space to allow the train to do a full circuit without overfilling while simultaneously having a train of chest carts big enough to grab...

    Automated animal breeding?

    The IC2 crop crossbreeding mechanic is pure nonsense if you base your sense in reality, but good as a game mechanic :) I am a big fan of the breeder + embarking/disembarking rail + portal turret method of animal farming, works great on soul shard mobs too :)

    Automating the Forestry Moistener

    Railcraft takes wheat from farms and cobble from extruder. Distributes to moisteners by unloaders on top supplying 64 cobblestone, unloaders on the sides supplying 64 wheat. Pipes out the back pump mossy cobblestone and mulch out the back into an output pipe. No gates required. Can provide...

    Pulveriser and Powered furnace not working

    I've had issues where my machines just simply stop working after a while, breaking them and replacing them suddenly fixes everything with the same setup. This is especially annoying with aqueous accumulators and boilers. I had an 8L boiler powering a quarry which ran for 3 days, and suddenly...

    Wisp combat

    I've grown a small node in my base and surrounded it in a room with a single iron door. I've found that many (if not all) of the wisps that spawn as a result of too much flux end up in that room. As for killing them, if they are in a combined space like that, a power II bow seems to 2 or 1...

    Converting energy

    yet another option is 64x64 quarry hooked up to a 8L boiler and 2 commercial steam engines ( or 1 industrial if you have the steel) running off the coal that it digs up.

    Fermenter, how to use?

    even better, redstone engines don't output to conductive pipes anymore, just directly to machines and suction pipes. Which means that if you put your redstone engine up against a pulverizer and leave it there for a week you will come back to an exploded machine :D

    Factory Ideas

    My goal - which you may like or not cobblegen + pulverizer = sand for peat bog Peat bog gives dirt for peat bog and outputs extra dirt and peat peat powers several wheat and tree farms wheat farms output seeds and wheat. Seeds turn to seed oil for biomas. Wheat turns to compost and biomas tree...

    Any way to sort items into chest automatically?

    Railcraft loaders/unloaders and routers are the only way to get the precision you're used to in red power. until red power :D

    Copper and Tin

    if you don't care about coal so much (running magic world for instance) you could pipe any coal the quarry finds into a 12L solid boiler to power the thing off 2 commercial engines. a 64x64 quarry usually finds enough coal to sustain itself Works like a charm :) alternately hook it up to a...

    Enchanting

    The twilight forest also offers the tinkering table (uncrafting table) You can enchant wooden tools and leather armor until you get the enchantments you want, then upgrade them to diamond and keep repairing them with diamonds when their durability drops. Obviously you don't need to just use...

    [Mystcraft] How to transport ore from an age to another

    +1 itharian engineering. Another pro in favor of ender chests is that dimensionally porting an item with mystcraft creates more server strain than teleporting via ender chests. A pro in favor of railcraft is the 0 blaze rod 0 ender pearl cost.

    how has he got it set up? Are you both on the same LAN? are on on different networks connecting over the internet? Is the server behind a router or firewall? If it's behind a router or firewall, are you forwarding the correct port? Are you specifying the correct port when you connect to the IP...
