    Deep Storage Unit and Open Peripherals + 1 other question

    I wrote a small test program to see what OpenPeripherals returned: Returns one stack of 64 cobble on a DSU filled with 500+ cobblestone. Seems like OPH does not fully support the DSUs (yet). Edit: I would suggest using a buffer chest for this. You can read items from adjacent chests...

    Bio reactor - power for the poor

    So i decided to pick up FTB again and wanted to see if i could revive an old method with a new touch inspired by a few forum topics :) The version i'm using is Unleashed 1.1.3 but suggestions from other mod packs are also welcome. My plan is is similar to squid power except it will use seeds...

    Did some testing but golems do not seem to get hurt when walking on the bushes in the latest version of unleashed. Also found out the berries can me matured with a water can :cool:

    Is it possible to get a turtle to put items into a diamond pipe filter ?

    I've seen DW20 use tesseracts placed by turtles. My suggestion would be to let the turtle eject items to the tesseract and filter the items at the receiving end ?

    Pull Items Out of the Chest Without Filter?

    Quarry can output items to an item tesseract. Hook up 1 receiving tesseract to a ME interface and items will instantly be put into your ME network. Pros: Extendable (can easily add more quarries) Instant item transfer No redstone signals No gates Cons: Every item transferred into your ME...

    Only keep X amount of items in ME system

    Haven't seen anyone mention that the storage bus also has a filter interface when you right click it. That way you can decided what item goes where and don't have to worry that the item will go somewhere else when a dsu/chest gets emptied.

    Accidentally moved filler with gravity gun, now yellow/black outline won't disappear?

    Had it happen to me once on a server and a re-log fixed it.

    AE & Iron Tanks/Xycraft Tanks

    Xycraft Item IO will fill buckets and bottles, haven't tested any other containers. Only problem is keeping a certain amount of empty containers in the input slot of the item IO because any automation will also fill the output slot with empty containers, stopping the filling process.

    Filler wont restart?

    Do normal solar panels work under leaves? Sounds to me you accidentally picked the wrong engine and would like to change it to a coal engine :) Edit: Thinking about this a little bit, but it seems more of a hassle to keep the leaves from growing above the track, then to just set up a cargo...

    why doesn't my computercraft program works?

    Don't know how LUA handles type conversion, but you could try converting your password to a string. local pass = "322221" Edit, from LUA wiki:

    Ways to travel up & down?

    Few unmentioned options: - Water lift, just make sure no blocks touch the stream or it will be really slow. - Mystcraft portals controlled with CC to insert/extract books. - IC2 Teleporter, even though it uses a bunch of power it's quite powerful. - Repower 2 elevator. - The thing from TC3 i...

    What to use to stop mobs from entering?

    What I did on one of my builds: - Get a Steve's cart with the advanced shooter module. - Optional but picks up mobs drops: Cleaning machine module. - Lay down the tracks where you want the cart to patrol. - Setup a cargo manager/distributor for cart fuel and arrows. - Watch mob get killed by...

    Unique Energy, Your Set-Ups and Plans.

    I've got 7.2k mB/t of steam running through my liquid tesseracts and decided to hook up an factorization steam turbine. Seems one steam turbine can easily produce enough power to get a constant stream of EV EU with power converters ! Hook it up to an oil generator and you have a nice compact...

    The Tips and Tricks for AE..

    I was wondering if it would be possible to pull a storage disk from a ME chest? Been testing a bit with getting items into my ME network using an item tesseract and a ME chest. A router seems to be able to insert disks into a ME drives and a gate can read if ME chests are full. If I could...

    Having a Biomass/fuel issue

    Multifarms still need apatite. SC2 and moistener are the most compact, simple and automated biofuel combo for 1.4.7 I have seen so far.

    Having a Biomass/fuel issue

    Another option besides plantballs is the moistener. Best thing is that it doesn't require any power! From forestry wiki: I have one set up with xycraft soil and golems and it easily supplies my 2 fermenters.
