Nobody mentioning factorization charge as a power source? It's arguably one of the more costly ones, needing horizontal space (cannae stack solar mirrors) and metric wtftons of silver. A note on steam, Railcraft steam engines will output MJ at a rate of 5 steam to 1 MJ and steam turbines will...

Thanks for the bituminous peat info. I always assumed it just ran longer, now that I know it actually runs more MJ per tick I might have to make a bituminous peat production line. The ash I would have to get from my other peat fire engines running the bogs and forestry farms. The propolis I...

only 1 silver vein from factorization can spawn per chunk. Not all chunks have a silver vein. You need a helluvalot of silver for factorization to work. 8 per mirrior, which most machines needing 5 or so mirrors of power each. Any machine with induction coils (read furnace heaters, grinders...

Engine listing. I am calling any object with an inventory a machine. 20 seconds to a tick. Sometimes this value fluctuates due to server lag, but if B is displayed in seconds and A is displayed in ticks, then A is always 20x faster than B. Unless marked with a *, none of these engines will...

The FTB team doesn't think thaumcraft fits in with the theme of the rest of the modpack and does not want to use it for official FTB maps. That being said, it will probably be included in the universal pack which should contain every mod the FTB team can get permission for.

on your fermenters w/ apple juice, try pumping out of two sides simultaneously :D

wouldn't a better and cheaper version of "free energy" be a railcraft steam boiler hooked up to power itself with magma crucibles OR just attached to a farm? Been working on a vertical stack of wheat farms creating biomass and biofuel for a steam boiler that requires no further input once set...

I tried not to include such products or else I'd also have to say pistons, most types of engines, doors, ender dust, sulfur etc. I did include some of the weirder ones (rock crush gravel into gold and diamonds), slimeballs from bees and soon to be redpower cow milking machines. it's also worth...

I have to agree with meldiron. Infinite Cobble Gen from igneous extruder Infinite Sand and Gravel gen from igneous extruder + pulverizer Infinite dirt gen from igneous extruder + pulverizer + peat bog OR any farm + compressor + macerator personally if I'm using a lot of a resource, I like to...

sure, i'll playthrough with ya :D

direwolf20 has done several mod spotlights on steves carts :D

So far my favorite fix for this is to center my bases power around steam boilers. Feed fuel in - get EU and BC power out, then use the power for all the cool stuffs! after getting enough iron to get an automated peat boiler setup going, immediately quarried out a 64x64 area under my base...

Quarries take between 2 and 9 MJ per tick, depending on how full their internal energy storage is. it takes 30 MJ for them to break a block and I believe 10 MJ to move. The engine MJ/t amounts are as follows Redstone - 0.05 and can no longer be hooked up to a wooden pipe. In order to draw...

kill a raven, turn its feather + paper into a magic map. use the magic map in the forest to show biomes in a large range complete with markers of where the hills, mazes and bosses are. The maze map foci are in underground mazes and are probably exceedingly rare in hedge mazes. The underground...

Maze Focus -> Maze Map -> Ore Map See through walls within a vertical slice of 3 blocks, map shows quite a few chunks distance all at once, sees through walls at around 10-16 radius. Twilight forest has made precision ore mining a thing.

Dense ores will always make a mystcraft world unstable. unstable worlds give random maluses like hunger, weakness, nausea, fatigue and slowness. unstable worlds may also have random explosions (meteorite strikes), tons of lightning (none that will hit a lightning rod) and most famously...

btw, anyone have the math for exactly how much each size boiler/pressure tank configuration uses for water? I have this chart Math Base Fuel Usage Per Tick (base) = ( (3.2 - numTanks * 0.04) / ( 16 LP or 8 HP ) ) * numTanks Heat Adjust Fuel Usage Per Tick = base + base * (8 - 8 * heat%)...

it very well might be wonky physics glitching. currently running an akliz server that claims to be designed with enough specs for a 32 man tekkit server, cancelled my subscription to eve online in order to pay for it lol. Figured a server with enough CPU and Memory to run a 32 man tekkit...

energy pipes are never looped in me base :D also, engines only explode if they accumulate too much power, though they run faster and output more power if they accumulate it. They will explode if nothing is taking their power (a misplaced normal pipe instead of conductive one, etc) but running...

you know what, maybe it was the piping system. I had all the accumulators below the boiler piping their ouput up (they had no water sources next to them) each accumulator had 1 gold pipe and those pipes DID connect into loops. maybe water didn't refill the pipes in some loops and then the boiler...
