I have rooms that vary in size. Each one I setup for a specific need. I have a core power room under my base, a storage room that is in the heart of the main floor, a machine room that is divided into small sections for the different types of mods (TE, Forestry, IC2), and a sorting room under my...

Yea, you have to have the research to create the core which tells you the process of using it. Turning on the cheat sheet in the thaumcraft config will allow you to use it in a test world while you have the cheat sheet out though.

Obsidian isn't exactly valuable for it to be OP anyway. Aside from that you need a constant supply of minium shards, which can't be automated. Turtles and golem kills do not trigger mobs to drop the shards (and neither does environmental damage), so you have to either go hunt yourself or stand...

You can then use the obsidian to make iron and the iron to make gold and the gold to make diamonds. It takes 4 stacks of logs to make a single diamond. And a ton of your minium stones charge (around 165 of 1520 uses).

I think an initial priming with energy might be a good way to do it. Sort of like another step while you make it. Require that it is filled with X amount of MJ before you can attune it to items, liquid, or energy. This would either be a time sink for people early on who don't have a large energy...

Don't forget the new thaumcraft pickaxes with repair make them similar to the IC2 drills but can have fortune and silktouch legitimately which is awesome.

Yea, but it would also get 25% of your diamonds and other ores you care about. Even eating 25% of your liquids is awful if it is a nonrenewable resource like fuel and oil, this would just mean you would resort to traditional transposing for those, which just ruins the point of using a tesseract...

Railcraft Blastfurnace will melt them into steel. You probably won't get as many ingots back as you spent, but it is better than recycling them. You may want to save it though in case you want a tank for some other liquid like biofuel/biomass.

Well really with redpower you can just use a gem pickaxe, though you can't get obsidian, it makes it even easier to get. Also the quarry needs 11 diamonds, plus a ton of power compared to the amount the turtles use, though I hear the fuel usage was increased recently.

How far away is it? It can only pull in a node from 24 blocks away. I don't think the size of the node has anything to do with being able to move it though. Could the nitor on top of the totem be messing with it? according to the figure in the thaumanomicon it has air blocks in the place they are.

No, vanilla survival minecraft only has access to the wither skeleton head. The other heads are creative only. Redpower's Vorpal enchant allows you access to the other heads. "The Wither Skeleton variant is a rare drop from the respective mob, with the other heads only available in Creative...

Thaumcraft Barrow was the 'tomb' you found, they have 2 spawners in them and also contain a dark node that spawns wisps (the orb that shot lightning at you). The totem pole was most likely the new obsidian totem from thaumcraft also, it is used in some advanced magic later on.

696.905 Buckets of Biofuel to heat up to 1000 C for a 36 HP boiler. 35.64 Buckets per hour to keep it at that temperature. There was a post sometime ago that had a Lua program that could calculate it for the different base fuels and I saved it to a computer on my test world, don't know where it...

The only way I think you can prevent nether pumping without removing it is to make using lava power inconvenient compared to other systems. Either increasing the cost of the machines that use it for power, such as TE did or lowering its value as fuel, like Railcraft. These changes affect how we...

I have always assumed the basic generator works similar to a real life stirling engine and just converts the mechanical power into electrical. It would mean no water would be necessary and would explain why it is the base for many of the other generators.

I think nether pumping is no more common than people using biofuel systems or blaze rod powered steam boilers at this point, honestly I think nether pumping is losing popularity to other power systems. Adding a new arbatrary mechanic like that just causes more lag as it has to check for if it is...

The multiblock farm isn't in NEI yet. http://forestry.sengir.net/wiki.new/doku.php?id=farms:structure <-- this has all of the recipes you will need for now however. As for netherwart, you might be able to breed it from IC2 crops but I am not sure.

A golden chipset needs 40,000 MJ. It isn't your setup, it just takes a while. All you can really do is try and get more power to them and get more lasers. The assembly table should have a way to see the MJ/t it is getting.

I thought the mineral bees gave tiny piles of that mineral's dust? I thought the thermionic fabricators molten version of the metals was specific to itself and could not be piped around. You would have to melt the ingots inside the fabricator in place of glass. While they are still used to...

You can automate it with factorization routers last I checked. obviously an expensive way of doing it but possible.
