Make sure it is a Stone button and not a Wood one. (Yes, it got me, and probably every other poster on this board.) The picture in NEI does not distinguish between them very well. Particularly if you are (like the Dragon) a color-challenged male. YH&OS

Kinda, sorta, been waiting for the Agricraft fix (which I think is in 8.3). The dragon is lazy and doesn't want to upgrade the server more than once per quarter (or less). YH&OS

Ah. One more reason to upgrade from 8.0 (as soon as we get an 8.x version that is reasonably stable). YH&OS (Dragon does Happy Dance)

There is a Thaumcraft config option for that. Check this line in the Thaumcraft.cfg file, I:research_difficulty=0. If the value is -1, that turns off the mini game. Personally, the dragon is not overly fond of the mini game. YH&OS

My thanks, Milord Raetac, for your answer! <reveraunce> Getting the book and what to do with it I already knew (upgraded from 6.5 to 7.4 in single player <shudder>). Getting permissions to USE /hqm edit was the sticking point for me as the server operator. After spelunking deeper into the...

Gentlebeings: I have asked this before and been deafened by the silence. I am running a private server (first time at this, completely self-taught) with 2 users, myself and my son (and 3 year old grandson, by proxy). I'm SURE there are lots of things I'm missing, but it is stumbling along...

I had my pots set up in a 4x4 multi-block, perhaps that had something to do with it. I will retest them singly. YH&OS Update: I am running 8.0, free-standing or multi-block, dirt or garden soil, tilled or not doesn't matter. The pots will not accept crop sticks. (Shift-click had no effect...

Interesting phenomena for the collective mind to chew upon. I had made several Large Flower Pots, partly for the quest, and partly because the quest said: "you don't want to put your dirt straight on the ground, use the flower pots, it looks better." Because of the contours around my base, I...

Oh them trolls...<chuckle> Thanks everyone all for the advice. The calculator says my exit point in the nether should be roughly dead center in a 40 by 40 by 40 cavern over a pool of lava. This could be a smidge dicey! I may have to build rail service between my base and his portal and live...

An interesting conundrum for the assembled minds: The other player on my private server set up his base reasonably far away. We are on opposite corners of a 2x zoom map. He set up a nether portal before I was ready to set up mine and when I set up my portal it linked to his. When I enter my...

Ouch. Don't beat yourself up too badly, TPL. That's why we are out here on the Bleeding Edge with an alpha pack, so we can find stuff like that. It wouldn't be any fun without Murphy getting his 2 coppers worth in! YH&OS

If you right-click on the mana pool with an ender pearl it tries to teleport you and consumes the ender pearl. Being a rather stubborn (and dumb) dragon, I lost several pearls before I tumbled to the fact that you must literally drop the pearl with Q or use Purple Mentat's hopper/open crate...

Gentlebeings: I will again pose to the collective mind: What has to change on the server when I update the client to 8.1? Or will there be a set of server files to accompany the 8.1 release? For the record, nothing I have done (disabling server item move both server and client side) has...

Thank you for the information, Kind Sir. I shall sharpen the poniard and have a VERY pointed discussion with the server. YH&OS

Master Trisscar, thank you for pointing me in the right direction. Further research has revealed Inventory Tweaks as the guilty party! After a bit of minor arm-breaking (changing the default sort to something besides R), the issue is resolved.The headsman is rather disappointed that the newly...

Master Trisscar: Not just sorting inventory, it also does so when searching NEI. If I'm not paying attention, I trip over the mana tablet i just dropped. It did this in 7.4 also, so it is not a new thing. Master SolManX: Yes, that is an option. It is in my future, but I'm not there yet. YH&OS

Once again, the humble penitent comes before the assembled wisdom seeking enlightenment. Somewhere (which I have been unable to locate as yet) lies a configuration option that is causing the curser to pick up my mana tablet when I am in an inventory screen and type an "r". This is annoying, to...

I heartily concur, Raetac. You all have different methods and I have learned quite a few clever methods of doing things from watching the various videos. Cheers to you all! YH&OS

Thanks everyone. And very good advice, which I will act upon.

OK, feeling kind of silly asking this, but how do you chat in this game? Running a private server with my son and I and when I type /chat I get "unknown command try typing /help..." When I type /help, I get some sort of IO error and get thrown back to the world select screen. Is there...
