    Steam to MJ using Power Converters

    I'm currently running 5 max size HP boilers and have notice a max of about 300 mb/t on 1 input face of the consumer. Given the I use a setup of 1 mj producer, 1 energy bridge, and 5 steam consumers with all available faces of each consumer with a steam pipe on it. I currently have 6 such setups...

    Colecting items in a large radius

    You can get nearly the same effect with a vanilla hopper cart but I don't know it's range. On the up side no fuel needed just Redstone power and booster rails.

    Galgadorian drill + cargo manager

    Quarries plus is just upgraded BC quarries. They can cover larger chunks of land but otherwise function the same as a standard BC quarry. You should be able to find it on minecraftforums.com but you will need to do the item id's for it yourself since it is not in any ftb packs.

    Galgadorian drill + cargo manager

    Only thing I can suggest is to look at the config file for bop. There 'might' be an option in there to turn them off but I don't know for a fact there is. Or you could just go down from time to time with a few stacks of cobble and fill in the pools your self. With that drill it is not like you...

    Simple Skelly farm question

    Personally I like the look of dropping unwanted items into a lava pit instead of the void pipe. I just drop what I don't want from my ae system into a chest then pump them out with wooden pipe and gate, pipe it up high and drop down a glass shaft to lava. Let it rain. Lol.

    Galgadorian drill + cargo manager

    Extra utilities is your friend here. Use item transfer node with max speed upgrades. It's quick, easy, and compact for your needs.

    Seed Oil or Low Efficiency Biofuel?

    Personally I went with 2 squid with 4 ranchers feeding bioreactors. Made so much biofuel I had to shut off the ranchers. I managed to fill a max size steel railcraft tank while heating up 5 max size HP boilers. Overkill I know but it was fun. Just for the fun of it I threw in about 12 unifiers...

    Colecting items in a large radius

    Looks like you are using mfr for the tree farm. Use upgrade harvester for this.

    Steve's Carts Underground Tree Farm: Trees not growing

    What are you using to light the area? From what little I can see if you are using wrath lamps that may be your problem. I would suggest glowstone or glowstone bricks under your tracks. With your current track layout the glow stone should light it well enough to prevent spawns.

    Colecting items in a large radius

    Same as above but I would use the mfr item collector and mfr conveyor belts. The belts give a bit more control on how items flow to your collection point and you don't need any special design element like you do with water.

    Base Design

    I know that there are some players that make an area of the base for villagers. Monkeyfarm and dataless822, both on YouTube, are vanilla players that have done this. Data less even included a breeding system and torture area for them.

    Base Design

    On my current SSP world I started in a cave. but after getting some basics I went and found my current site. Built a small house then moved everything over. Will try to get some screenshots later. Base is still very much a W.I.P. <--- {jaw hits floor}

    Worst teacher you've ever had?

    I had one years ago, my history teacher. All he did in class was read some notes that he wrote like 20 years prior. That's it, 50 minutes of him droning on and on. No homework, no text, just lectures and 3 tests all year. Made me wonder how he kept his job. Then I remembered that he was also...

    Base Design

    I have done a lot of different styles. I built towers, domes, underwater, and 9x9's. Currently I'm trying to build 'with' the land. Got a nice cliff face overlooking a cove where I built log cabin with some simple machines, ae system, and bed. Wooden walkways suspended in air with stairways to...

    Portal Gun + Portal Spawner = Easy RTB

    I know direwolf20 used to do the portal spawner in his base all the time but not so much any more. I think he just shoots a portal there and leaves it now.

    Base build from a lag standpoint?

    Tesseracts have a 100 mj limit, but I got around it. I just use alot of them all on different frequencies. Currently have 4 running in my SSP power room but I have I think about 24 tesseracts in total to use with room for more. As I add stuff I just add a new channel to the network. Got 2 squid...

    Base build from a lag standpoint?

    It is your engines causing all the lag. I'm sure it looks great tho.
