I was as clueless as most as to why my nodes in the desert weren't growing, so I spent a couple of hours digging through the thaumcraft 3 thread on the minecraft forums. That hit gold. One post which was hardly commented on had exactly the right information needed on how node merging actually...

Too bad it's a test world :) 1916 aura means it reaches up to 479 blocks away. Set up a chunk loader on top of it, build a magic base 200 blocks away (but away from other nodes, like far up in the sky) and you can start sinking the vis into useful stuff.

The best option is not using grass, dirt works just fine for a twilight forest portal

Nope, the railcraft blast furnace isn't hot enough for titanium.

Use an energy cell between the engine and the pump set to 1 MJ/t output and it won't overheat.

Hehe, yeah that scared the crap out of me, the first time I could actually see one of those in a Barrow. I was looking for the nearest node, walked up to a slight bump in the terrain (barrow was in a ditch so it hardly stuck out). I dug down two blocks and stared into a massive black hole.

In the sorting machine comparisons thread, someone posted a system using RP managers to achieve some form of auto crafting. I tried it in a creative world and it sorta works, but it creates large amounts of surplus items (the managers are stupid and send 10 items when one is required, then take...

of course that is still cheating, it's just not as big of a deal ;) Man I wouldn't want to lose my nodes, I spent (actual) days growing those silverwood trees.

Yep, big computercraft screen works just fine. Though you'll have to code it yourself. bonus points if you attach levers to the entries to add a check on completion ;)

I personally think the Industrial Grinder is an awesome machine. Sure it's a nightmare to set up and keep supplied with power, but once you have one it'll be the preferred method of processing valuable ore blocks. It doesn't feel overpowered either, due to needing other materials (like mercury)...

I read somewhere about pumping coolant into reactors. Is that possible yet?

Nobody actually answered his question though. And I don't know either. The bio-generator is part of forestry, not IC2, so we can't assume it works the same as the geothermal does. Though forestry is generally somewhat smart about energy consumption, so I'd hope so? I guess you'd have to test...

I think the main problem is that he doesn't understand NEI, not gregtech ;)

Too bad this interesting thread has derailed in an RP versus LP spamfest :(

It looks awesome, but it doesn't work very well - surplus items get created and get stuck in the system. Adding the buffers you suggested just fills up with extra items created by the autocrafting table, then the top manager fails to extract from it.

Try sticking that jar into the same folder as mindcrack pack when you run it - that is also a valid java path.

erm, I'm pretty sure that's not the case. IC2 ores look very different. AFAIK, the current ores (at least in Mindcrack pack) are from Thermal expansion. Slowpoke explained how it allows specific setting of how rare some ores are via thermal expansion config.

if it's a well written mod, you can keep it on and it won't do anything to your world outside of the holiday season. But I personally hope they don't, seasonal game content is a waste - content should always be available to play with.

Well I can't fault your reasoning on getting the clothes dry if it wasn't for the fact that the castle is gone. The first Making Of episode is up: Making of Unhinged Science #0.1

He used to use builders for those nine by nines - but they never got fixed.
