    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Put a roof over the top. Use solid blocks of some type. They teleport during the day with line of site to the sky.

    Hmm without upgrades what about 2-4 harvesters in a 3x3 at the center of the 9x9 grid. 8 planters around the outside.

    Are there not MFR upgrades in ultimate? Pretty sure they were in ultimate for 1.0.2. Don't reacall 1.0.1.

    IC2 is slowly dying out ?

    Yes, we now have the TE charging station -- though I rarely have to charge anyway. Before that was released I used conservative settings on the glove and relied mostly on the kenetic generator. Then when I added the 5m batteries I used the power converters universal charger to fill everything...

    IC2 is slowly dying out ?

    I haven't looked at the techic pack without IC2, but the 1.5 pack i made for myself could very easily drop IC2 and i wouldn't notice. I left it in initially cause i love nuclear reactors. So far oddly enough the only thing i have used IC2 for is crops :P It saves on needing an MFR planter...

    1.7.x Packs Yet!? [Mindcrack/DW20/Ultimate/Lite/Horizons/Monster/Unleashed/Unhinged/Tech/Magic/etc]

    Wireless redstone depends on redpower 2. You won't see wireless redstone update until redpower 2 is out for that version of minecraft.

    Applied Energistics sorting question

    Emitters and export buses are the way to control exact amounts of materials. To me they are expensive, both high resource and energy cost. If the amount you want to keep can be the size of one pre-formatted disk though, then you can pool many items together on a single storage bus. Pre-format...

    Immibis (Micro block)

    Not sure on UE, but IC2 wiring already has a method to prevent connections -- paint. Has a roller thing you use on foam can be used on cables to isolate lines run side by side.

    Automating quest ram...

    I am on 1.5.1 with latest/near latest builds of most mods. It is added by Modular Power Suit's auto feeder module. I think that module is in the base mod. Could be the MPS addon mod. Either way it decreases that displayed number until it reaches 0, then it eats a new piece from my inventory.

    Automating quest ram...

    What is so difficult about grass? You can get it easily (minium stone cobble) or silk touch or natural spread. I have two 5x5 pens with the 16 colors of sheep in them and passively building up a wool supply using the MFR rancher. They can eat all the grass under them, but adding a ring of...

    How well to redpower's microblocks work with any of those mods? Not at all you say?

    Factorization processing. Is it worth it? Also, a concept.

    Will it blend? http://www.youtube.com/user/Blendtec

    Immibis (Micro block)

    Second that. I updated TE. Saw the crash -- checked the change log. Downgraded back to the version I was running and went back to playing my survival world. It is nice to stay on the bleeding edge, but you don't have to run the latest version of everything in your world. This bug would...

    Redpower's Manager block gets clogged when managing more than 1 type of item

    Oh wait. Just set this up in a test world. I remember this bug. There is a bug with 0 priority managers. Just set your infinite manager to 1 and the other manager to 2 or higher. Will work as you expect. Edit: Managers are so wierd... Without a restriction either to a different chest or the...

    Redpower's Manager block gets clogged when managing more than 1 type of item

    You have a route to a chest and to the 0 priority manager on the same chest?

    AE pre-formatted disk question

    There is a mode button on the IO port to reverse what it does. So you put in your pre-formatted disk and it pulls all matching items from the network and puts them on the disk. No need to pull every unformatted disk and drain it just to fill one pre-formatted disk you add to the network.

    Compact Factorization automation with 1.5.1...

    Not sure of the charge generation system is part of the size of the setup, but you can get a lot of charge using the smallest railcraft steam boilers. A few versions ago when i tested the ratio of steam to charge in factorization turbine was 2.5 charge per steam. So a single tank LP boiler...

    Redpower's Manager block gets clogged when managing more than 1 type of item

    I haven't used manager in a while, but I think the infinite mode does not work as you think. With no items set in its filter the 0 manager is trying to empty the chest of everything. I suspect if you clear its backlog and put anything unrelated in the chest first it would backlog on that. So...

    Need Help, losing all biomass over night

    Did some testing... The chunks loaded around spawn looks to be about a 15x15 box with the actual spawn chunk in the center. Basically equivalent to having a chunk loader in square mode with radius 7. The player loads 21x21 box with the player at the center. I might be crazy, but in...

    Need Help, losing all biomass over night

    I was surprised to see a chunk loader setting in Modular force field's config. Do you use any MFFS blocks?
