I uppgraded and improved my electric blast furnace a bit with the border sharing on the multiblocks :) I went from 3 to 6 without that much of an investment. It was a nice exercise in learning how to make combined multiblock structures :) http://prntscr.com/arull2 They can actually share all...

I'm not actually sure, ive never gotten around to using those frames when iv'e done bees so if someone could clarify what it actually does that would be really helpfull. I can imagine thought that if it just ordinary flux events the problems could be taken care of with a flux scrubber around the...

Using the magical frames you can decimate the time it takes to breed the bees by a LOT so it is likely the way to go. If i remember correctly the fastest way would be to use 1 oblivion frames and 2 metabolic frames. Then each breeding cycle takes about 30 seconds and has the cultivation has a...

Brilliant, with the frames available from there you should be able to quickly cultivate new breeds without spending to much time. Hopefully you won't have to venture that far into thaumcraft to get them. If i remember correctly the metabolic frame increases the mutation chance and necrotic...

Do we have the thaumcraft addon in the modpack that gives you new frames for the apiaries? Especially the ones that reduce the lifespan of bees is a real time saver when you quickly want to cultivate new breeds

A very nice and easy way to automate the apiaries with identical bees if you have the tech for it is the ender io item conduits. You put it into input/output mode and allow self feeding with a higher priority. Then connect a chest and it will automatically put back drones and the queen and send...

The compact turbine setup works perfectly, just need to save upp about a stack of tungstensteel to complete the upper turbines :) http://prntscr.com/argme8 I can't run it for very long though as my battery buffer get filled in about 10-15 minutes even with 3 HV blast furnaces running and 12 MV...

If there is a pipe with the flowrate you want then why not just use the pipe directly to begin with and skip the middleman? This is a fair point though when you need a flow that you cant find among the different types of pipes which is usually multiples of 100 or 1000. I do think you would have...

you would also have to increase the inputs and outputs between heat exchanger and turbine. For 48000 l/s it would be rather difficult as you would need 3 regulators, 3 input hatches and 3 output hatches per turbine but you only have 2 input hatches per side on the large turbine. In most cases...

I do use the ic2 regulator for the lower flowratesbut i don't think you can use it for higher flowrates. If i remember correctly theIc2 regulator can handle a maximum of 1000 mb/tick or 20000l/s which is to low to handle the output to most large turbine rotors. The fluxed electrum rotors im...

Is there any way to work as a full time modpack developer? Im guessing you get some from donations but beyond that im not so sure. Can you bring your own laptop to work maybe? :D

Thats like a half time job :O I really do appriciate all the hard work you and the infitech team puts into the modpack (and those developing GT5u!)

This might be know to a lot of people but a very neat trick when you want to controle the flow into a certain machine you can use one of the many GT pipes as a flow restrictor. This becomes extremly relevent especially when you want to controle large flows of fluids into the large turbine. The...

So they still require the same amount if input/outputs but you save a lot of space and require less casings and coils?

Im gonna see if i can make it work. I would have 3 large high pressure turbine and 3 regular ones sharing floor/roof to make two 7 high, 3 wide and 4 long turbine multiblocks. i would have 1 block between the high pressure and low pressure multiblock so that i only need 3 huge tungstensteel...

You just improved my lava heat exchanger turbine setup A LOT. This means i could potentially fit 6 turbines in the same space where i had 4... This lava setup is gonna be such a monster ! :D

Mind blown! How does it work with sharing input and output slots? And how does it work with energy hatches? Lets say i share the maximum amount of walls by building a 4 blast furnaces as a 5x5x4. Does it still need the same amounts of inputs and outputs and can they all share energy hatches as...

So the answer to your question is that the voltage is not important as long as it passes the threshhold of the recepy. If the voltage is high enough then only the total amount of amps*voltage you send into the multiblock needs to be considered. That is actually very nice as it reduces cable...

A quick question regarding the processing array. Do you only have to consider the total amount of energy required for all of the machines it contain or do you also have to consider the voltage tier of the machine in question? For instance i wanna use processing arrays to handle all the 24 MV...

You can make ethanol in the distillation tower however the numbers are very poor. Very low output so i think it needs a bit of a buff to be viable. Im still dreaming about the GT gasifier, i can just imagine all the fun things you could do that. Then you could refine solid fuels into syngas...
