    Hybrid Energetic bees and lightning

    I had/have no interest in bees. None of us did until a husband/wife team joined our server approximately 48 hours before the lightning came. She has bee experience from another server and wanted to concentrate in that area which is fine by us. How the trait entered is beside the point. Which...

    Hybrid Energetic bees and lightning

    Yes, we did use the analyzer and we did see that the bee was "Valiant" with a secondary trait of energetic. Did I not state that earlier? Regardless, to me that's a secondary issue. The point I was trying to make was why the mod authors made the lightning effect so over the top. Lightning...

    Hybrid Energetic bees and lightning

    Yes, I mentioned they had a secondary trait of "lightning (ie, energetic). Glad to know that the lightning rod would be ineffective. We found and killed the queen with the trait...no more thunder every few seconds. Thanks for the reply!

    Hybrid Energetic bees and lightning

    I know this has been discussed previously, but wanted to put to rest any question of whether or not this variety of bee causes lightning. The answer is a resounding YES. Our resident apiarist bred these bees (and somehow picked up a secondary trait of lightning) and now her place is getting...

    Open pit quarries cause excessive lag - fact or fiction?

    Ok, so building a Buildcraft quarry over water (I assume not have it come close to a shore line to prevent water flow problems) is ok. Will definitely use WorldEdit as we have some water problems at the moment. How do I access the 'chunk explorer? I've done a google search and come up...

    Open pit quarries cause excessive lag - fact or fiction?

    @Baron The server admin(s) would have to make inspections, I suppose. I don't really want to put too many limits on quarries, per se, but the ones built over water seem to be particularly bothersome in regards to causing increased load on the server. @Scaffolding...do you mind pointing me in...

    Open pit quarries cause excessive lag - fact or fiction?

    Thanks for the reply. I hadn't even thought of the water issue. That alone would be the cause for a lot of CPU cycles. I think I will prohibit any mining over water. I also think the Mystcraft idea has merit. I'll look into installing that within the next day or two.

    Open pit quarries cause excessive lag - fact or fiction?

    I have read differing opinions on whether open pit quarries cause excessive lag. As an admin of a hosted server, I'd like to keep things running as smoothly as possible. So, I would like opinion, or better yet--fact, as to what causes more lag. Open pit (eg, BuildCraft quarries 32x32 or 64x64...

    IC2 Miner config question

    I want to open the use of miners on the Mindcrack server I admin and need to configure the server to allow it. After a bit of research I found that I need to tweak the IC2 config file to expand the list of ores/blocks the miner can locate. According to the IC2 wiki, the config file should...

    Problem [IC2] Furnaces, Macerators, ect throwing exceptions to server log

    As is detailed in this thread (http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/ic2-api-errors-filling-up-my-logs.10085/#post-120975) you can d/l an IC2 update manually which fixes the problem. At the time of that thread, the release version was 212. 212 fixed the errors, but it seemed our CPU usage...

    Whitelist Server Mote Prime*Mindcrack*Whitelisted*Relaxed atmosphere*Mature players*

    We're a group of about 6 guys (US/Canada) that have been playing games together for several years. We're looking to add 4 - 6 folks to our MC server. (We'll keep the size under 18.) We don't have a lot of rules and you don't have to go through some bend over backwards and jump up and down...

    What does this mean?

    It can be fixed now if you're familiar with doing manual updates to the client(s) and server. If you're not, however, I would wait for the next modpack upgrade.

    Problem Mindcrack v8 IC2 API error causing server to hang on load

    Then I'm puzzled why you created the post when you won't employ the solution. I suppose you will have to wait until FTB incorporates the updates into the mod pack. If you want to file a bug complaint directly to the folks at IC, then go to this page: http://bt.industrial-craft.net/my_view_page.php

    Problem Mindcrack v8 IC2 API error causing server to hang on load

    We have machines from several different mods running and after the patch, all of them are working fine. I can't guarantee the results of what you'll get, but here's what we did to fix the problem. Back up your world, first. go here: http://ic2api.player.to:8080/job/IC2_lf/212/ d/l this...
