    Here's a tip. Never build a skyblock base with single block layers :P No seriously, why would you not just put dirt on top of wood or cobble blocks?

    Did someone say BIG Reactors? Just farting around in a creative world. I made a 32x32x32 reactor to see just how silly big you can create these and still work. Had to use McEdit to add all of the Gelid Cryotheum in a timely manner. Placing the last block took a few seconds for the game to do...

    For the cost of a few hundred trees you can have a stack of charcoal blocks which will literally last forever.

    The item ducts will not pull out the ingot cast template. I think you can put more than 10 drains on a smeltery, but you only really need one drain on each smeltery as long as you whitelist a bucket of the molten metal for each type of cast you have in the system. There are 9 basic ores and...

    I like to throw a TE tank set to output mode between the fluid duct and the casting table/basin as a buffer so I can use fewer smelteries/high ovens. This allows multiple casts to run simultaneously.

    Those are disabled in this pack. Pretty much anything that does not have a recipe in NEI has been disabled for one reason or another.

    Might be the mob's hitbox and orientation when the game tries to spawn it and that might determine if it will spawn inside or outside of the wall.

    Oops did some additional testing and seems some mobs spawn outside what I thought they would. Looks like the exact Grinder dimensions are 5x5x4 (1 down 2 up) in front of grinder. You can check the grinder dimensions by holding a precision sledge hammer in your hand. The spawner seems to have a...

    The grinder also grinds 1 block below it. Putting the grinder on the same level as the spawner in the fashion that I describe works 100% of the time for me and does not require a 2 thick wall. You only need a larger room than 5x5x5 (interior) if you plan on spawning larger mobs, but I think...

    Your spawner is too high up. I think they can spawn up to 3 blocks above it. I think they have the same range as a grinder but 5x5 around, 1 down and 3 up.. I always make a 5x5x5 interior room with the spawner being at level 2 and never have any problems.

    If you are looking for a challenge, I suggest the Blood and Bones pack. Play on Hard or Hardcore if you like losing your world often. Be paranoid during the day. Spend 20+ hours before your food self sufficient. You will either love it or rage quit delete the pack :P

    If you are using lava or fire to heat the crucible you really should have no wood for a radius of about 3-4 in all directions. Crucibles do not throw embers. Otherwise beginner platforms full of wood using candles to heat the crucibles would be torched for sure.

    Without pictures it could be anything. Item ducts go into the closest inventory even if a whitelist is on the system. If you want a whitelist trashcan you either need to set it to "vacuum" mode or make it the first stop in your ducts.

    Blood N Bones [Hardcore Survival]

    I always move to a more hospitable environment, but of course that eats up valuable time on your first day which starts a domino effect. The problem is not getting started as more of a getting established before the hoards of invaders make it so you cannot leave your base to get much needed...

    Not really necessary, but I wanted to see if I could break 100,000 RF per tic with a Big Reactor while still remaining in a single chunk. Made a creative world. Seems you can with a 15x15 reactor with 13 Rods. This monster makes 102,000 RF using 0.850 fuel at peak output. Next experiment will be...

    If you have white listed fluid ducts and tanks, there is less than 1% chance of getting an alloy using a single smeltery.

    That is what I meant by the amount of work :P I know all of this and I still stand by that this is nearly impossible to do unless you get lucky with world gen. Even knowing most of the tricks ahead of time only 2 out of 10 fresh worlds have I had the resources to make torches using a crusher. I...
