    The swarmer block appears to not do anything aside from consume royal jelly, unless the 'swarmer' rate is absurdly low or unless it only works on certain bees.

    What are you currently playing?

    More like 20. Oh gods that makes me feel old, Morrowind is turning 12 this year. Almost all my neighbors' kids are younger than my favorite game, which I bought new.:eek:

    Autocrafting with AE?

    Or use translocators linking a ME interface set to autocraft/otherwise keep stuff in it's inventory and an ender chest/pouch pair. With a diamond nugget on the translocator on the ender chest you can keep a specific number of items in the chest. Useful if you want to use the same pattern for...

    Weird worldgen Direwolf20 1.6

    Have you updated or changed the BoP configs (assuming you are using BoP generation). Changing Biomes o Plenty configs usually has the sliced biomes effect. as for mystcraft stuff, the 'temples' or libraries only occur within mystcraft ages as far as I know. And the villagers are random but I...

    Didn't Arena have most of Tamriel available for exploitation exploration?

    What are you currently playing?

    Hmm, all this talk of TES games makes me want to dust off my morrowind stuff and play again. Maybe this time I will beat the main campaign(first time for everything I guess). As for Minecraft: DW20 with AM2, MPS, Red power and probably some others disabled and a whole bunch added including but...

    Automatic Emerald Machine/ villager par-boiler

    So ya, step by step. y1: block redstone dust computer with timer: while true do rs.setOutput("left",true) os.sleep(40) rs.setOutput("left",false) os.sleep(12) end This is fairly exact timing and if you want to use something other than computercraft you will probably need to mess with it a bit...

    Well most of those growth inducer's require a material investment, are fairly minimal, and/or require fuel. I think the best thing if balance is your goal is to eliminate the extra seed from harvesting option, this requires you to make each seed and limits the growth of a farm. If you are...

    Don't know the base time it takes to grow magical crops but it feels about as long as vanilla wheat, maybe a bit longer. Many things can speed up the growth of magical crops. Thaumcraft lamp of growth, Extra utilities? watering can, reliquary's lilypad of fertility, blood magic's sigil and...

    HOW DO YOU SMELT IRON??!!

    What do you need refined iron for? The only thing I know of that uses it was IC2 and IC2exp does not have/use it.

    Applied Energestics General Help

    I do apologize, it's just that bringing up a long dead thread bugs me to no end(though I couldn't tell you why), especially since we seem to have a rash of it going around this week. I am glad you got your question answered and if you have more please ask here or as I said in the ask a simple...

    Sinister nodes do convert biomes when freed from a jar(at least in non-nether areas). No idea about the nether/silverwood interaction though. I might have to test it since I am planning major terraforming in the overworld in my current playthrough.

    ah, yes that should have been worded better. It made sense in my head when I wrote it. Ya their fuel consumption and steam production do go up as they get hotter. This has eliminated the whole 'need 3 barrels of charcoal to get a boiler up to temp' thing that RC had going on before.

    Is it me, or do some people not "get" that FTB and its mods are free ?

    I think it's one of those human nature things. Most of us (or is it just me?) like to complain about things we like. I don't complain about Gregstuff because I don't use it and probably never will, it does not affect me. I don't complain about computercraft because quite frankly I hate coding...

    The last two Direwolf20 forgecraft videos have them discuss the magical wood S6E16 and S6E17. It looks like, as blastedsura said, the wood is a somewhat important part of the new ender quarry requiring 8 blocks I think. As for the other stuff, I don't know, the latest version of DW20 1.6.4...

    Player proximity imitation

    From my own experience before I removed AM2 grinders do generally work fast enough if you have enough of them. I don't remember if 1 grinder per 5x5 was enough, I just spammed them and never had an issue A couple of 'clever' ways I've seen: Gather everything together (like with a ritual of...

    Base being destroyed

    You would hope, but you cannot deny that people on these forums can an do omit that kind of info on a semi-regular basis. (hey why did my machines explode? <7 posts later> oh I forgot to mention I have GT and built outside and it was raining) Not saying that the OP did this, I am just throwing...

    Applied Energestics General Help

    It would be advisable, or at least less anoying to ask that question in either a new thread or in the wonderful ask a simple question thread instead of necroing a 6+ month old thread. Despite what Zein's Necrology might make you think, thread necromancy is somewhat frowned upon.

    Base being destroyed

    How is the damage manifesting? Cause monster looks like it has Meteorcraft which would probably explain the noise. And the devastation.

    Isn't it used in some of the recipes? Or at least planned on being used? I thought they were talking about it in one of the forgecraft videos. also form the EU changelog: 1.0 - Golden bags of holding can now be 'enchanted' with magic wood. They will remain in the player's inventory on death...
