    Is it possible to automate a thermionic fabricator?

    Why doesn't Power Converters handle Blutricity?

    Pumping water into a Carpenter, does it have to go into the top, or can it go in elsewhere?

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Not quite - currently stored logs have higher priority than empty preformatted drives. Latest GT update stopped them being the same. I assume it's because the GS superconductors are easier to make - no Tungsten required - and Greg didn't want people skipping tungsten on their way up his tech tree.

    If YOU had only one mod to take out of Ultimate, forever, what would it be?

    Yes, but the way he said it implies "if you use AE like this, you might as well be in creative mode", which I take exception to.

    Finding lots of Nikolite

    You can presumably extend that with the HV cable

    XP turtle

    It's just as random as you enchanting things. You've just been unlucky. Keep enchanting, you'll eventually get more. Disjunction III seems to be really damn common, for some reason.

    Finding lots of Nikolite

    Yeah, my housemate is crazy. For a while, his base's main power came from a massive blulectric solar array powering a blulectric engine.

    How is that creative mode? You need to put the items in there first.

    Finding lots of Nikolite

    But sorting machines need barely any power! I ran four sorting machines off two thermopiles, and I probably could have done it with one! You don't need a massive solar array, just a few will do everything you ever need. None of the blutricity machines actually need all that much.

    If YOU had only one mod to take out of Ultimate, forever, what would it be?

    Eh... I haven't used much of the Xycraft machine stuff, but I absolutely adore the Fabricator. It is (aside from AE, because AE) hands down the best autocrafting table in the pack. The way it works is just so much more useful than any other autocrafter. See, I don't use ME chests. I use a ME...

    No, I don't think so. Used to be able to power two 36HP and a 36LP, I think, but blaze rods got nerfed hard a few months ago.

    Dumb Modular Powersuit Tricks

    You can enchant the power tool with books. Mine currently has fortune on it.

    The Tips and Tricks for AE..

    If a chunk that contains part of your network unloads, it also cancels crafting. At least, I assume that's why my crafting kept getting interrupted when I built a massive extension to my ME network.

    If I have to remove one? Obsidiplates :P

    Beealyzer vs Analyzer

    Three main reasons: one, because I'm being silly and my bee breeding room is underground (so every bee needs cave and nocturnal in order to work at all). Two, because it's a lot easier to automate with newly mutated bees than breeding the traits on the old fashioned way. Three, because I can.

    Beealyzer vs Analyzer

    Lies. If that's all you can think of doing with automated bee identification I'm sorry for you. I'm planning on building an automated bee inoculation station, which will give any bee I put in it all the best traits I've discovered so far.

    New Mixed Metal Ingot Recipes

    If you mean MMIngotOnlyRollingMachine, we have it set to false, and we still have to make MMIngots out of plates. That's the only relevant config entry I can find, aside from Aluminium2MixedMetal, Steel2MixedMetalIngots, and Titanium2MixedMetal, and I'm sure none of them are what's stopping us...

    IC2 is slowly dying out ?

    Not sure quite what you mean as regards conservation of energy. The gravity and infinite water thing are very silly, I'll grant you. Mob spawning is a handwave, it's easy enough t o assume they came from somewhere, in most cases. As for machines, many don't need that much maintenance, not over...

    IC2 is slowly dying out ?

    No, the standard assumption is "like reality except where noted". Enderpearls clearly come under "except where noted", as do Minecraft Joules, being a different unit of measurement to Joules. Steam power does not come under "except where noted", and is thus a valid target for realism disputes...
