I'm a bit curious regarding the HSS materials. I used the green ones(HSS-E?) for my turbines since it seemed as if it had higher durability and efficiency while the iridium-based one had a lot lower. Although I haven't been able to find an iridium vein(where do you even find it lol, checked...

Using the arcane terminal from energistics causes constant crashses, any reason why? Like, using primordial pearl, sometimes changing the gear, sometimes unequipping in the wand slot, shift-right-clicking for a stack, all of this causes crashes often for some reason. Will compiling the latest...

Man sometimes railcraft acts strangely. These are part of the same train and move in parallel without requiring fuel o_O Edit: seems to be caused by this intersection, and I just can't identify what is wrong with it. The train seems to try to go the left(from picture perspective) even though...

I ran my railcraft boilers with alumentum, as long as it has a burn value it works I think? I assumed you prioritized automation over efficiency but wasn't completely sure, yeah lava would be a good solution too.

Wouldn't a 1x2 railcraft LP boiler be a good choice? It heats up very quickly, is automatable. It does produce 10mb of steam per tick which might be a bit too much, but automation based on drum content was possible, yes? If a better boiler setup was what you sought then this might be handy.

Time to set up an advanced miner then :) Good to at least have a moderate buffer of lubricant to survive.

The batteries aren't viable since I wanted to fuel steam locomotives. I run a distillery for lubricant, how would I go about automating the brewing machine? Afaik it requires talk or redstone, which might be a bit difficult to supply easily? I used golems + fir before to automate the pyrolyse...

Hmm, that sounds interesting. Any chance this is available with gregtech refining, that is those alternatives since I am drowning in nitro-diesel, and pretty much voiding extra methane and LPG.

Thanks, I'll look into that. Although I still need some fuel for my trains. Power isn't a problem, though I still in some way gotta create fuel for them and it seems difficult without a large tree farm of some sort.

What's the easiest way to generate lubricant and solid fuels? Want to set up a good system for advanced miners, but the solution was a pyrolyse oven and distill the creosote into lubricant which felt like a huge and clunky setup and laggy including the tree farm, likewise the coke ovens are also...

How do you fix when carts bug out? Like you cannot target them, it is driving me insane. Sometimes carts just don't exist and act really strangely, which really makes it difficult to work with them. The only solution I've found is creative and spam destroy blocks around it until they disappear...

Use 2x transfer nodes with hyper-rationing pipes on all the reactors, works fine for me. I then use round robin + speed downgrade from the output to split cells evenly between chest and hydrogen canner. Man, making a train station for multiple trains requires a loooot of logic gates o.O Takes...

Sulfuric acid will also used in the creation of I-tnt/tnt from oil, so it is important to not use up all of the sulfuric acid. LPG is also used for materials, so guess I cannot use it all up. I use nitro-diesel for the entire setup and I still manage with a hefty bonus, even without proper usage...

I just finished mine, and I haven't really found a dire use for the cracking unit, although I use raw oil for processing. Might I say you're gonna work for quite some time, blood made a good job with making it interesting.

Is there any way to easily distribute cells with a ratio(for oil production) in a small space? Right now I just crafted like 200+ cells for oil production just to ensure correct distribution, while it might work seems a bit clunky to use.

Yes, that was my predicament. For the mean-time I just use MFSU's as buffers for the reactors, although guess they are now disabled so it's not really a good solution :P

I cannot seem to get energy out of my reactor using only GT transformers(it is full size). If I use an MFSU between the reactor and the transformers it works fine, but only transformers does not work. I use one normal(2048->512) and then 512->2048 to output to my battery buffer. Is there a...

What version of optifine are you using? I downloaded A4 non-HD and I consistantly crash due to updating screen events.

Ah jeez I am stupid, used an MFE to gauge power output and for some reason I assumed it was a requirement, man that saves a bit of resources.

Oh and how will I get power out of the nuclear reactors now that stuff like MFSU is disabled?
