    ANSSRPG - Open Source Player Progression. Build your own RPG!

    Well a magic skill could give a vis cost reduction or reduced instability on infusion (no idea on AM2 or Blood Magic, I only play TC4)

    The future of automation

    No, he just refuses to join the dark side. I know, you got cookies over there, but cookies aren't everything.

    Extracting essentia from an Alchemical Furnace with pipes?

    Essentia tubes do not sort, they suck. One given tube only transports the aspect with the highest suction, which would be the one in the jar nearest to the said piece of tube (with little difference, some jar types suck more than others). You can lock off jars from the net with the valve tubes...

    Extracting essentia from an Alchemical Furnace with pipes?

    Unless you use thaumic tinkerer you'll have to use either essentia tubes or golems. Tubes really only work in small contraptions where you have a small set of essentia types (e.g. supplying lamps of growth or arcane bore). Supporting the infusion altar really needs the golems. You'll become...

    AE Automation and Modpack Migration

    I normally set down a pair of crucible and liqud transposer and have the recipe "4 pearls and one empty bucket -> one resonant ender bucket" in the interface. Then I set an itemduct to pull items out into the crucible and the transposer. The crucible gets ender pearls whitelisted and the...

    Applied Energistics and Logistics Pipes

    Sorry, I cannot understand your first sentence. If you wanted to know if LP can craft in AE, then the answer is 'no'. The reason can be found five post above yours. That's the main reason (besides the style-factor) why I prefer autocrafting in LP - that way both systems can craft. In 1.7 AE2...

    Applied Energistics and Logistics Pipes

    You can have it easy or you can have it cool. decide yourself. But be ware: "If once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny, consume you it will, as it did Obi-Wan's apprentice."

    Primitive firearms for Tinker's Construct?

    1st: mDiyo never 'should' something in his mod. You'd appreciate a lot, if he would.;) 2nd: A musket is a weapon with a smooth barrel (not drawn) which shot round bullets that were significantly smaller than the caliber of the weapon. Both characteristics lead to a slow flying instable...

    AE export/import

    Yep, that would work, too. But I think, I'll go for the other solution with the dark cable and the BC gate (I'm a big BC fan).

    What is RF?

    So as long as I only use TE there is no need using other conduits than leadstone at all (well maybe except for the energetic infuser, but that fella can be buffered with a redstone energy cell). Nice.

    What is RF?

    Does that no-internal-threshold apply to the hardened and leadstone conduits, too (I know it applies to tesseracts both for fluids and RF, too)? E.g can I power eight pulverizer with eight steam dynamos via one leadstone energy conduit line?

    AE export/import

    That could be the first really useful idea here. 1) level emitter on export bus 2) export bus set to export one item at a time 3) dark cable turned off as soon as the machine is working. This will shut down the export bus so only one item enters the furnace at a time and as soon as the last item...

    AE export/import

    That could be a solution, but that way I need one furnace for each item type to keep stocked AND all the furnaces will be full of raw materials which can be as expensive as to produce too much stuff (e.g. having 64 advanced processor assemblies in a shut down furnace cost the same materials as...

    AE export/import

    So no solution here, also. Thanks for the reply, I'll keep on searching.

    AE export/import

    How do you prevent overproduction? E.g. you use the same furnace to produce bricks AND charcoal and level emitters on the chute to emit when bricks or charcoal fall below 64. Now take ALL bricks and charcoal out of the system and the export busses start exporting wood blocks and clay until stock...

    What is RF?

    Kinetic energy is one of the energy forms that can be stored most easily. Just take a wheel of great mass and rotate it or make a pedndulum oscillate. Even the vibration itself (as MJ is more like vibration than pressure or motion) can be stored, eg. in a gong or a spring or even a long pieve of...

    New to modding (as developer)

    Nay, that wouldn't be good. In the omnitool you cannot have your favourite behaviour. E.g. some like the excavator better and some prefer the flux infused shovel or the earthmover. Also custom enchantments would be impossible. And I'm not only refering to the standard tools like the vanilla ones...

    New to modding (as developer)

    Make a toolbelt. We have far too much tools in modded MC and no way to switch them in a convenient way. This could be a leg armor with its own inventory capable of holding any tool that can be assigned to a certain quickbar-slot. Pressing a configurable key shows up a ring-menu in which you can...

    What's new in modded minecraft today?

    Oh, I always thought, BC NextGen is the new BC :D
