    Performance in the next pack?

    I'm not saying that it wouldn't be amazing beyond words. It would, however, bring a whole new definition to the word tedium in some respects.

    I'm sorry to sound impatient, but...

    The English language in general is full of inconsistencies and mispronunciations of words. Color and Colour are both pronounced wrong. Get over it.

    Xycraft Multitanks and Lag.

    I have quite a large amount of Xycraft tanks, and I haven't noticed anything too horrible. Compared to a fresh world, my FPS wasn't too different. Graphical lag might be a different story, but my bottleneck is CPU.

    LOL. Ten points.

    Ultimate 1.0.2 GregTech recipes

    Oh, I meant that strictly for myself, mod interaction without GT is boring. Of course, that's just me. Minecraft for me is a game of supply and demand. You need supply to meet the demand. With vanilla mod recipes, your supply will always be vastly larger than your demand. GT helps with that by...

    Ultimate 1.0.2 GregTech recipes

    That's true. Not everyone uses GT, either. In fact, if you don't play with mods like AE, I wouldn't advise using GT. GT is balanced around mods like AE so that mods working together don't make the game obscenely boring. If you're using GT and you don't have access to some form of crafting...

    Performance in the next pack?

    That could work for a cooperative server, but Minecraft isn't scaled down simply to have mercy on your computer. Resources on that scale aren't feasible to be used or mined by one person. Imagine finding a pool of oil that's actually on scale with real life ones. That would power your base for...

    Too much coal

    I was actually trying to remember WHY large amounts of coal were useful. I'd forgotten about industrial diamonds. Thanks. And yeah, do that. If I'm not mistaken I think a stack of coal equals one diamond. I'll have to see if that's right.

    Ultimate 1.0.2 GregTech recipes

    AE essentially makes manual crafting obsolete. At this point, complaining about the complexity of crafting recipes is equivalent to complaining about how long manual mining takes. You can complain all you want, but there are less painful alternatives.

    Stop mobs spawning over a large area (DW20)

    Well, really your only choice is partial blocks and transparent blocks. Those are the only others that stop mob spawns.

    Stop mobs spawning over a large area (DW20)

    You could always go to a desert and play around with a wrath igniter. ;) Speaking of wrath igniters, would wrath lamps suit your purpose? I know that lighting it up isn't exactly what you want, but wrath lamps have a much, much larger radius of light coverage than other light sources. If...

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Yeah, I played on a server and 100 percent of my iridium came from Sheldonite. I used a portal of course, and an Advanced Jetpack. It lasts so much longer than a regular jetpack, and can also go high enough to get some of those tricky asteroids. I think I was 40-60k blocks out by the time I...

    Best mining method?

    Well, that's interesting. At any rate, this game needs more silktouch ore methods. I like this. More variety is always good. Once Ultimate is updated to 1.5 or 1.6 or whatever they plan on doing I'll have to check it out. If it's good enough, I may just sack my BC quarry in favor of it...

    Best mining method?

    I'm not sure I understand the concept behind the mining laser. Is it like an ore fabricator?

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Generally speaking, going to the end and searching for Sheldonite is probably something that a player is going to do before they get to Platinum bees. I was playing with a friend of mine on a server a few weeks ago. He and his wife were playing. His wife took an interest in beekeeping, so she...

    Talk about bulk processing

    It process both input slots simultaneously, right? (Otherwise, I'd hardly see the point of having multiple input slots.) Technically that's processing more than one item at a time.

    Liquiduct counterpart?

    Oh reaaaally? You're not just saying that to make me smile, are you?

    We should be able to ride in pipes.

    The conveyor belt thing continues to confuse me. Those things are slow as molasses. How are you using that as a feasible transportation system?

    We should be able to ride in pipes.

    Why can't we have large tubes that don't send you into a macerator? I seriously wanna zipadeedoodah around my base in a pressurized transportation pipe. And I think I just found a name.

    Problem with MFR tree farm

    Well, that works then.
