    Unfortunately, I think it is The End. But you can get to the End by crafting 9 eyes of ender together to get an End Portal tile.

    I did the same, threw away the hive after making it for the quest. The way you're supposed to get bees in this pack is with scented artificial hives. You place one with some blocks that the species you're trying to attract likes, then wait. There's a chance that the artificial hive will turn...

    I see. I had the same issue regarding infernal drones. Is there a way to lure them with an artificial hive like you would forest or meadows drones? I ended up flying around in the nether for a few minutes to find infernal hives. The modpack purports that the Nether is optional, so there...

    What is preventing you from getting more drones before you try altering genetics? Unless of course you're breeding to get 1x fertility, which you mentioned above. If that's the case, either use artificial hives to get rocky bees or wait for an extra princess to spawn and start breeding her, and...

    The safest way that I've found is to use an imprinter with a genetic template. It will take one generation, or two at max if all you have is a Queen, to stabilize or "breed true".

    Kind of. Use a Genetic Sampler from Gendustry along with some blank samples. Throw in some amount of drones and hope for a "Species: White" sample. Put that on a genetic template and run the random queen through with that template. if you use the template on a queen, you'll get offspring that...

    It matters only because mobs won't spawn if you're too close. If you're referring to the distance the quest book suggests, it's just a rough guideline. It doesn't actually care where you build it, so long as you give it the rotten meat and bones.

    Certain species have it. Go in game and search for "fertility" in NEI. You'll get some serums from Extra Bees (because Gendustry doesn't seem to show its samples in NEI). Just click or press R over the one you're looking for and NEI will show you all the species that can give you that trait.

    The best bee effect is relative to what you want. I don't like any effects, the particles get annoying. Other's might like beatific or heroic. It's all up to you. The best bee in a line is also relative. Sometimes the last bee doesn't give as much of a particular species-specific comb as does...

    a player kills the TPS on a server??

    The quote above is a much better reply to "try opis" than the one you gave me originally. Several people proceeded to suggest opis after that, not knowing you had already tried it. Can the player in question try logging in from a completely different location? Maybe, just maybe, there's...

    It seems like his original problem was with the fluiducts being set improperly as opposed to the tesseracts being a problem. I'm not looking to get into a debate about how someone uses Forestry. To each his own! These are just my recommendations. I will address your points though. Temperature...

    No, it doesn't matter. I'm offering a simple solution since he was having a problem with his power.

    Yes I intended that for the OP.

    You have tesseracts.. why are you piping lava to your bee area instead of power? It seems superfluous to generate power in multiple areas. Concentrate your power generation and pipe power through tesseracts. If you want to limit the rate at which energy transfers, put an energy storage cell...

    a player kills the TPS on a server??

    Look, you come to the forum to ask people for advice but then you come up with an excuse for everything offered. We're throwing at answers at you and you just blow them off without telling us if you tried it or ruled it out. This is a two way street, we need to know if our answers are helping...

    a player kills the TPS on a server??

    I haven't had an issue yet that Opis didn't catch. It's worth a shot. As for being in a separate window, I imagine it was because there was simply too much information to keep it in Minecraft without writing an unnecessary new GUI system.

    Laser drills won't produce iridium, according to just about everything I've read. You're better off using an ender quarry. Other option is to manually search and mine. You know how that ends up though.

    It's out there. Just make sure you're exploring chunks generated in version 2.1.6, as anything before that did not have iridium ores enabled. Also many people will suggest glitching through the roof of the nether with ender pearls for a safe quarrying experience.

    Not big at all, if you use a Fertilizer (which would require a supply of bone meal and wheat). Once heated to maximum, a block of charcoal will keep a high oven heated for a long time. We built up a supply of charcoal a while ago and dismantled our farm. Still going strong with a high oven...

    MFR tree farm is very simple. You just need a harvester and a planter. By default, they will plant and harvest in a 3x3 area. To make that area bigger, put range upgrades in both machines.
