You could make a version that looks and functions the same as it does now, but would run far better without the layers of abstraction. The cost to that would be that mods would be MUCH more difficult (and would actually require an api), and cross-platform support would be much more difficult...

From a technical standpoint, this wouldn't necessarily need to be a launcher-side thing. You could log update checks (as it does on launch), rather than downloads.

Well, only kind of. The planter and harvester combo achieves automation, is self-contained, and typically used to indicate a single "system". Adding the fertiliser into the mix does add in more dependencies (for example, you need to supply the fertiliser, so you're looking at a sewer and...

Note: You would need to pair the planter with a harvester.

Apatite was specifically intended to to be finite (excepting the far end of the "we do everything" mods like extra bees), with the intention being that you can make a farm automated and run a long time, but eventually, you will need to do maintenance. As to the compost issue, I remember at one...

Right, I may be way off here, but here's my assessment. Problem here is that it's not as easy to troubleshoot this as it is usually, because it's crashing out the main game. Usually, a crash report will have an exception caused by a function in a mod that crashes things, and it's easy to see...

Think You may have an issue, in that the safari nets aren't intended for automation (aside from the obvious auto-spawner version). Another possible thing to consider would be to look at the safari-net launcher, which I just remembered has capture and release modes. It doesn't as far as I can...

Ah, wasn't aware that that was available. And, that's just confusing. Also, not included in any of the packs (as far as I am aware).

Soul Shards has changed since the version you are referring to, and I'm not going to mention current mechanics, as they are in a permanent state of quantum flux (as soon as I say something, it's changed). Barring that, the methods you mention are valid, but miss the point. The thing that was...

Possible (if more complicated) route would be to filter all of an item (enchanted and unenchanted), and have a second filter to blacklist the unenchanted version. Unfortunately, I don't think you can do in-line filtering with itemducts, so you could chain two of the, together, you'd have to...

Yeah, AFAIK, it's basically a desync issue between your client, and the server (either remote server, or the SSP one rubbing behind your client. Your client places the block just fine, but the server looks at it and says "nope, you can't do that", removes the block and puts it back in your...

What I mean is that, as part of the general bee breeding system, you get a defined "vanilla" set. A template that you imprint on to all of your princesses. You take that species, and add the best traits you have, and make a stack of drones. You use those to standardise all of your hive...

Sequencer? Never bothered with it. As I recall, it's limited to "native" hive species, and intended as a record of first-gen bees. I fund that species serums and drone stacks are a better bet for that. And, yes, I try to keep a stack of every species of drone, usually with stats as optimized as...

Also needs you to have got to obsidian. On different games, I've had quite odd blocks as shortages.

I can see the point of being able to use gems, but when you have forestry that's able to squeeze them cheaply, it's kind of a no-brainer. If you were forced to use the crucible, it'd be a different story ...

Probably. Not used direct gems in forever. I always just go straight for the squeezer.

Fair enough, obviously been hit with the nerf hammer since I last did it.

When I'm running a pack with Dartcraft, force engines are usually my preferred method. If you're looking for an automated solution, then you need to consider both the fuel and the throttle. For fuel, the two main options are either Liquid force, which is powerful (up to about 10 MJ/tick, with a...

My standard first step is to grab some wintry drones, breed them out for a bit, and try to isolate the 4x fertility serum. This is insanely helpful to decrease the amount of time to a stack of drones, and to boost your liquid DNA supplies. Once you have that, throw it onto a rocky combo, and...

As I recall, the staff requires the cores of each of the lower staves to be completed (bone, obsidian, blaze, etc.). If I'm right about the progression, it goes something like this: Iron-capped wooden wand Gold capped greatwood wand (might be able to substitute silver here, not sure)...
