    Question about Turtles

    A chunkloader turtle is a turtle crafted with any chunk loader (I use chicken chunk spot loaders because of their cheap cost). The turtle will now keep the chunk it is in loaded and will not restart unless the server restarts.

    Question about Turtles

    I would also be interested in learning how the fs API works if there is anyone kind enough with enough patience to explain it (or better yet, point us in the direction of a semi-decent guide). As far as how much EU a turtle can hold, it's limitless as far as I can tell...

    A moral dilemma - was I right or wrong

    that's stealing in my books, I'd give then a warning abd ban if it happens again

    ComputorCraft program help

    that kind of program is deceptively difficult to write, even though it appears very simple. I recommend watching direwolf20's button api tutorial videos, he has a pretty good program already set up for people to use.

    Replacement for deployer?

    This would work, but it is not as efficient as it could be, because the program will loop infintely and eventually throw an error because it doesn't yield. A better code would be: This code will halt when it finishes and wait for the redstone signal to change before it runs again, much more...

    [MindCrack] Solar Boilers?

    Not sure exactly what you mean Chrissy. The picture explains it far better than I could. Its also very easy to build once you get going, the mirrors face the boiler in the center if they are close enough, and if they are too far away, they face straight up, so its just a matter of placing them...

    Looking for a specific server. (Ultimate)

    because the forum is for server promotions. just browse the forum and find a server that fits what you're looking for, that's what everybody else does. don't expect someone else to do all the hard work for you. though you might get lucky and happen across some kind soul who will point...

    Looking for a specific server. (Ultimate)

    You may have more luck browsing the server promotion sub-forum, that is where people post their servers and where most people go to find servers to play on. http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/categories/server-promotion.81/

    Infamy servers

    [MindCrack] Solar Boilers?

    228 mirrors i believe, though that is a rough calculation so I could be off... The whole setup produces roughly 114 eu/t, not quite as much as a 36hp bioler. Not bad really, but keep in mind the mirrors use 9 silver ingots each...

    [MindCrack] Solar Boilers?

    each mirror adds roughly 10mb/t of steam, or 1/2 and eu/t. The ideal placement of mirrors lets you get 56 mirrors around a single boiler, which produces 28 eu/t. Pretty underwhelming i think, but it runs forever once you get it built i guess. Also, you can stack the boilers and they share...

    Liquid Tesseract limits

    I set up another few tests. I had the same setup as above, but was outputing to 4 different tesseracts and quantum tanks, The result was almost exactly 250mb/t was output to each tank, therefore suggesting that the input tesseract has a limit of 1000mb/t of steam. The next setup involved 4...

    Liquid Tesseract limits

    I just did a test setup using a steam producer producing 200,000mB of steam per tick, being fed into a tesseract, which fed into a quantum tank. I ran the test for 10 minutes and got pretty much exactly 1000mb of steam per tick. This is not 100% accurate of course, because the quantum tank may...

    Re coding for turtles

    Turtles use the LUA coding language, which is quite basic. There is no macro recorder available that I am aware of, i'm not even sure it would be possible to implement that in minecraft anyway.

    Re coding for turtles

    you don't need computers at all to run turtles. Turtles are literally moving computers. You can make as many program's as you want, if you name it startup it will simply run when the turtle loads. As for your second question, no, there is no way to run the code line by line. Though it does...

    A lot of oil spawned in my world.

    I would love for this to be implemented in the vanilla buildcraft spawning. It could occur in like 1 in a thousand chunks and be insanely rare, but if you found one then it would be like striking gold and you would be the server's oil baron

    That's actually really awesome. Its OP as hell but really cool.

    Automatic mob farm with Turtles

    yep, a pressure plate in front of the turtle is the way to go

    Automatic mob farm with Turtles

    abdiel has a very good code, use it, it's almost identical to my set up and its the most lag free way to run a turtle farm
