    His topics look good, but does he shows code examples/demonstrations? Which to me would be the most important thing, to see it in action.

    Object Object_Array[]=new Object[100];Could do a list if you wanted to I think, there are many ways to utilize it. Just have to remember what I said before, anything that has extended object can be put inside, which is ingeneral a lot of things, integers, strings and even things you create.

    All objects in a java array don't have to be the same if the array is of type object :) In an object array you can put pigs, cows, and little doggies too since objects extend object, just as long as when it comes time to extract that animal you don't forget to put a dog into a dog and not into...

    I should probably also mention this since it often never really gets mentioned straight out. Mod devs often have to deal with people. Now lets go into what that means. To some this might not seem like a bad thing, but I think a casual stroll through the various mod forums and all the topics...

    How can I merge Unleashed and Unhinged and run it as a server?

    As far as I know natura doesn't generate clouds like that within the promised lands. Are you doing this with the 5.9.3 version of BoP? If so this could be a new form of generation within the biome.

    I think I probably would have had more fun learning C# first, but C++ certainly has it's place. Java also has it's place, for instance the Android operating system was written mostly in C, but uses Java for front end application design. Most operating systems actually still use some form of C...

    The Perfect Energy System

    I have and it comes close, although I want wireless transmission without having to place something next to a machine. Which would be closer in nature to Calclavia's MFFS 3.0 where you could pinpoint exact coordinates of where blocks will move, only in this case the transfer of energy. It...

    How can I merge Unleashed and Unhinged and run it as a server?

    rofl what is that, it looks like promised lands gone rouge. Also Underground Biomes, and Nuclear control are two other mods that Unhinged has that Unleashed doesn't. I wonder if this is the result of combining Underground Biomes and BoP.

    The Perfect Energy System

    One without cables where nearby nodes can beam energy to the machines sounds kinda ideal to me, except that might suit a magic machine setup more.

    Learning a little about C and C++ does help show the roots of Java though, also teaches you a little bit about manual memory clean up/disposal as opposed to Java's automated system. I still think having my first class of C++ before java was the right choice, even though I prefer Java and C#...

    Why Do People Always Build Boxes?

    You could always expand out of the top in a tree-house like fashion as well. I usually do that with my farms

    Opinion: Why I think some mod authors should think twice about their new content

    You pretty much accomplished that goal, though a faster version of a furnace/pulverizer hybrid, multi-block or otherwise would always be appreciated ;) There was also a mod out there that let you generate MJ from damming up a river, its not really outside the box but it was something different...

    Will the new ModPacks be Updated?

    Xycraft and the TC slime islands can be retro gen'd in. From what it sounds like the packs will carry over in name, but they may gain a few mods.
