    Thaumcraft Mining w/ Tools & Enchants. Competitive?

    Well I tried to create a small automated system for it, and it worked like a charm. I think it could use some refining, but the concept is sound. It does run you into the obvious issue of Vis cost for the process (the wand has charging and the pick has repair 2 so they are self repairing at the...

    Thaumcraft Mining w/ Tools & Enchants. Competitive?

    Well I did a few tests using a Pickaxe of the Core on 128 iron ore. This came out to be 42 Native Clusters and 86 Iron Ore. Assuming you have an infernal furnace with 3 bellows I ended up with 170 ingots with 188 nuggets. This accounts for a total of 190 ingots with 8 nuggets remaining. So it is...

    MystCraft 0.10.0.00 Discussion Thread

    Are you sure you are using Cave World and not Caves? I created 2 ages using that setup (one with the dense ore, charged, accelerated and one without) and they both came out fine. And depending on your use of the age you may want to change to Bright instead of Standard Lighting so the world...

    MystCraft 0.10.0.00 Discussion Thread

    Well the medium biome modifier (along with huge, large, and tiny) requires at least 3 biomes to be selected not 2, which is for tiled biomes. Standard terrain and cave world are conflicting symbols since they are both the key symbol for terrain generation. There is no standard time symbol...

    Speed of Orchards?

    Assuming that sappiness is the fruit yield then Walnut, Chestnut, and Cherry trees all have 'Highest' in that stat. Yield I believe is for the actual saplings, but I am not sure.

    An idea to prevent Nether lava exploitation

    I'm fine with not agreeing with people, I understand most people won't change their mind based on what someone says on a forum thread. I just dislike repetitious arguments that seem to repeat endlessly with the same points in the same fashion. For the topic of nether pumping, geothermals are...

    An idea to prevent Nether lava exploitation

    I think the only thing left of lava pumping is IC2 geothermal power, as Hydra said there is no clear progression, and really they provide a rather large EU/t for something so easy to obtain in the nether. It kills the idea of using nuclear power, and I don't even want to go into solar. For MJ's...

    Speed of Orchards?

    http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/forestry-tree-breeding.10135/ http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/tree-breeding-spoilers.7869/ Those 2 threads have some information about tree breeding, the second one has a list of all the current combinations to obtain the other trees. I assume of...

    Speed of Orchards?

    Of course :D The base apple tree is awful from what I saw. In my tests it was an apple every 30-60 seconds. Not very good at all.

    Speed of Orchards?

    Seems they can use up to 75 MJ/t from what the MJ reader told me, but the rate that they gather apples/fruit is dependent on the actual trees stats.

    What the Heck is This?

    The blocks are especially hard to break last time I checked so it wouldn't be the best way to gather them.

    xycraft

    1 stick + 1 sulfur = 8 sulfur torches that produce more light then torches by 1 which means slightly less torches needed to prevent mobs from spawning, which is the main draw of lighting things up. If you use gregtech you can also use his sulfur for the torches making them even easier to get.

    Filler questions

    No. That was changed with buildcraft 3.4.0 to prevent people from exploiting the filler as a quarry. The items dropped by the filler should also disappear a few seconds after being broken to further prevent it from being exploited. Get a quarry instead.

    Forestry orchards

    xycraft

    Torches emit level 14 light, the Xycraft sulfur and aluminum torches emit level 15. If you do not believe it place a torch and stand with your head at it's level and check F3. The bl (Block Light) should read 15 for the xycraft torch.

    xycraft

    Well it is probably fixed in the ForgeCraft version we don't have. They haven't exactly updated the official release much. But Soaryn has tweeted about a new world gen release in 2-3 days, so it might be fixed with that.

    Myrtle Ebony growth

    Well are you sure it is a 2x2 tree? The default myrtle ebony sapling from the creative mode is a 3x3. So that might be your problem.
