Just a note on an apparent problem... that isn't really one but can confuse players into thinking there's one: The combination of Buildcraft liquid pipes and Mariculture fluid tanks results in an apparent loss of 100mb of fluid when a single fluid is pumped from a Buildcraft machine like the...

Speaking of odd spawns... I was out exploring in my scuba outfit late last night and stumbled over three bats flying in circles underwater. Flying just like they do in the air. New way to get bat wool: go diving! Great for bottles o'enchanting too. Came back with a stack. Would have been more...

Should be able to build a sorter with golems too, if you want a lot of moving... parts. :) There's also a fish sorter that appears to not be limited to fish. Haven't tried that. I did diamond pipes with clay insertion pipes and mostly drawers in 0.65. Haven't done anything in 0.71 so far...

NEI is your friend... at least mostly.

Yes, night vision. And you can switch it on above water too. I think that slowly damages mask though. One thing different is rate of hunger burn. Much faster when scuba diving. That's fine. I mostly don't eat unless out fighting and have loads of magical food at this point. :)

A picture is worth 1,000 words: The base is above. I'm down about 30 hovering, which is perfect for underwater construction. I can hover! With the scuba mask and dive suit I was being pushed every which way and a tap at a control sent me somewhat unpredictably up, down or off to a side...

Oh, I have been doing that too. But I wanted to see if I could make the scuba set work too. :) I think the flippers are going to be more important for me, working on my underwater base as I am. Steering with the snorkel on is a major pain.

After reading about all the troubles getting scuba tanks to fill with air from the compressor, I just want to say... MAH TANK IS FILLIN'! Compressor does eat power. The hobbyist steam engine is underpowered so this will take a while, but there is red in the tank bar now. It seems you have to...

I wonder if it expects an empty wand? May need to craft another if that's the case, but I'm not at all convinced that's the issue.

Gas leaks and tanking gas: Got it to work with a little research. FTB wiki gave me the point I was missing. I used the air pump hand cranked (by me) in the gas cave, with a liquid tank beside it. When I first tried it failed, but I was at the bottom of my 1x2 shaft and the walls were close. The...

I had two cases of the bottom half disappearing in 0.65. I was using hoppers and decided (perhaps wrongly) those were the cause so stopped using them. I haven't seen another incident since in either 0.65 or 0.71 (knock on wood.) From reading the Mariculture threads around, I think this is not a...

I got it to work in both 0.65 and 0.71. Takes patience.

Did spawn on jungle tree for me in 0.65

Makes mental note for later: 3 buckets... (haven't gotten that far in Witchery)

Ow, Binnie, you just made my decision exponentially harder... those are a lot of different wood pattern combinations!

I have a feeling it can be done with pipe wire and gates, but haven't done that. Even if the pipe is doing nothing more than acting as a wire-support. May be easier than vanilla since the gates are compact.

I swear, the most time-consuming part is deciding what meterial/pattern to use when building. So many options...

That's one option. There is at least one other that does not require mushrooms. NEI is your friend.

You should have skeleton essences. Use those to make the bottles. I think it's 3x3 in grid, or maybe the usual swirl 8.

Can't you just use a timer instead?
