    Boiler fuel question.

    I would recommend getting into bees. Extrabees has a bee that can produce oil for you, which makes it a renewable resource so you could actually have an infinite amount of oil since finding a constant supply of oil can be difficult (until mystcraft adds modded liquids to the generation and we...

    Boiler fuel question.

    Well since you produce 7.2 buckets of fuel per minute (432 buckets per hour) and at max heat the boilers will use ~12 buckets of fuel per hour, you could in theory run 36 36HP boilers given an infinite amount of oil.

    Applied Energistics

    Because RP2 is old. AE is new. With RP2 the general population understands the average complexity of creating a RP2 system, but AE is so new that we have not grasped how difficult each machine is to make or the price to run it. Given time people will understand the amount of materials needed to...

    Boiler fuel question.

    You won't need to save up any fuel. 6 fully powered refineries should be able put out 7.2 buckets of fuel per minute (Each producing 1 bucket every 50 seconds so 1.2 buckets per minute each and 7.2 for 6 refineries). At no point does the boiler use that much fuel in that amount of time. Just 1...

    Applied Energistics

    Well I have only just started looking at this mod myself. I really like it so far, though I feel like I am going to neglect other types of storage in place of it now. I do prefer it over logistic pipes, but that might have to do with never properly learning how it works and me liking the...

    dungeon generation in mystcraft ages

    Well I did some tests. Using just dungeons like you have I was unable to find any number of dungeons over any range of area. I tried moving the dungeons page outside the clear modifiers page because I thought it might have something to do with it and it does not. What I did find was that if you...

    Mystcraft question...when do the worlds get removed?

    Yes, you can delete them yourself and it won't harm anything. Mystcraft itself does not delete ages automatically at this point in time.

    Trying to update XYCraft

    The Xycraft world update didn't happen until Thursday last week. FTB updates on Mondays. So it wasn't even out when they updated FTB.

    Dense ores and copper/tin

    That is because mystcraft's new update will require mod developers to add mod ores directly into the dense ore generation. Before dense ores would look at the forge dictionary and add everything, this lead to getting all the ores you disabled. Since coal, iron, gold, diamonds are all default...

    In your next Direwolf20 build, will you bother with IC2?

    Most of the functionality it provides is easily obtained through Thermal Expansion and other mods that use MJ, as well as being used for other things it can't do. This means we have to add infrastructure for EU generation that is going to have a more limited selection of machines than MJ using...

    In your next Direwolf20 build, will you bother with IC2?

    It doesn't centrifuge. Industrial Electrolyzer: 4 Blaze powder to 1 Dark Ashes and 1 Sulfur.

    Finally...

    Gregtech's Matter fab requires scrap to even run and by default costs 16,666,666 EU per UU. There is no decrease in cost like the normal mass fab does.

    Autumn Woods, Single Biome, Cave World, Bright, Caves, Rising, East, Full Length , Normal Sun, Setting, East, Full Length, Normal Moon, East, Normal Stars, Normal Weather, Dense Ores, Clear Modifiers. The Clear Modifiers should be included because at the moment all ages are experiences some...

    Mystcraft World

    Cave World. You place it in place of standard terrain when you create the age.

    DW20 5.1 - RailCraft Steam Boiler Changes?

    Boilers have always been more efficient in larger sizes. Solid and Liquid both follow the exact same rules for all calculations with the only variables being the size and pressure of the boiler, the only difference between fuel types being the heat values. Liquids are really the most reliable in...

    Thaumcraft Mining w/ Tools & Enchants. Competitive?

    It would be determined by the amount of ores you obtain. If you are not processing lots of ores per minute then you wouldn't have to worry much about any excessive Vis use, even with the repeated attempts to turn them into clusters. Putting it into an alternate dimension is always an alternative...

    Things are Disappearing

    When they disappeared the first time did you check all the IDs/configs/mods before hand? Things tend to disappear if anything is out of place. The Yes and No screen has never been very useful to me and I would just backup my worlds before loading, click yes and check to make sure everything was...

    DW20 5.1 - RailCraft Steam Boiler Changes?

    Nope. There is no config to alter fuel levels for the boiler in the Railcraft config. Accept it and move on. I wouldn't call it 'hard' to switch to a liquid fuel, which seems to be the only reliable way to fuel a boiler at this point. A 36 LP boiler will only use ~6 buckets of fuel per hour...

    Things are Disappearing

    FTB's launcher will auto reset all configs and delete all mods that are not in the pack by default when you update it. So I would recommend using multiMC if you are capable (it even allows importing from the FTB launcher) or backing up your entire config and mods folder before updating and spot...

    DW20 5.1 - RailCraft Steam Boiler Changes?

    Well if you look at the tooltip you would see that it says Blazerods are worth .5k heat which is down from 2.4k heat. So probably between 6.14 and 6.15.3 he nerfed it without changing adding it to the changelog. It was probably expected because of what Soul Shards caused with blaze rod farming.
