Actually, a quarry is one of the slowest and most inefficient methods of automated mining in the game. You can mine faster and more efficiently with 2 turtles, a mining well and a redstone cell (roughly 600 blocks per minute). If you are at the point where you are looking to make the most...

Would be a real sight to see... like the Egyptian Plague of Locusts...

Hmmm... Turtle Swarm Output: 64 blocks in 9 seconds ~= 427 blocks per minute Fuel: 1 turtle fuel per block Mining Well Turtle Output: 16 block row, lvl 75 to bedrock in 2 minutes ~= 600 blocks per minute Fuel: 1 turtle fuel and 1825 mj per 75 blocks Turtle swarm doesn't require mj, but...

Hmm... perhaps I haven't used quarries in a while. Last I knew, they took hours to clear a chunk. I'll have to look into it...

You should try telling a large mining corp IRL that their automated mining techniques are too OP. That would be cool. --------------------------------------------------------- A reasonable facsimile of intelligence...

I just built a 2 turtle system that will smoke a quarry for speed and energy any day of the week, for a fraction of the materials and energy usage. Thing1: Gate Reader Mining Turtle (used gems, not diamonds) Thing2: Engineering Turtle Thing1 gets a mining well and an ender chest linked...

How about 2 mining turtles with a startup program. 1 mines, places the other. Other pulls everything from the first, breaks it, mines, and places the first. Back and forth, no fuel used, and a LOT faster than turtles moving! --------------------------------------------------------- A...

That was absolutely the best Rick Roll I've ever seen! Read every line starting right after the last period in the line... Lol! Well done, sir!

AGE: 35 IGN: bigtwisty Why do you want to join KamiKraft? I would really like to try the Ultimate Pack in a multiplayer environment, with a mature group of players. What mod experience do you have? I've been playing modded Minecraft for years. I've been playing FTB since before release, and am...

The RP2 Sortron would give the most comprehensive coverage here. A bit of FORTH knowledge would be necessary, however.

This is pretty much why I was asking. That and the ability to import FORTH apps from the web. I'm thinking something like a SPI bus with 8 data lines, using the other 8 for the actual protocol overhead. Every device in your car communicates over a system called CAN, which uses only 1 signal...

Has anyone come up with a good communication protocol between computercraft and Redpower 2 computers? I could develop it myself, but don't want to reinvent the wheel if I don't have to. --------------------------------------------------------- A reasonable facsimile of intelligence...

Gravity gun grab a q-chest with 10k+ stacks, walk through a portal to someone else's base, break that puppy open and go /home. Instant troll! --------------------------------------------------------- A reasonable facsimile of intelligence...

When redpower computers finally get decent interrupt handling, running a PWM output should be fairly easy. It would almost function like an analog control level for the engine. Hmm... negative feedback control loops... I just got a woody! Cudos, man...

You Can program a sortron to do anything if you have the Forth chops, but that would be even more complicated than two filters. However, it would be infinitely more cool. --------------------------------------------------------- A reasonable facsimile of intelligence...

Do not paint the "default" pipe path. If you use a restriction tube, all non-sorted items and any color sorted items that have no place to go will go down the default route. Color-sorted items with valid destinations will still ignore this default path due to the restriction tube...
