It uses more MJ and speeds things up. A single laser can only give the Table slightly less than 4 MJs. So if your MJ network can produce a lot more, then you can use more lasers. In my last DW20 build (before switching to Ultimate and making a new world) I had 9 lasers over my table, and it...

I'm not sure if this applies to the Canning Machine - but I thought there was another machine out there that "doesn't like wires" - so the only way to power it is to give it its own batbox with the output right against the machine. You could try that and see what happens.

Yes, this is standard behavior of turtles. Unless you give them a chunk loader - they will stop working when you leave them. And if you're playing singleplayer - they will always stop when you exit your game.

Also - if you are way, way, way in the late-game - the Quantum Armor Helmet can prevent you from being affected by debuffs.

When I started looking into coding turtles, I did my own program first (which was rather challenging) rather than copying people's programs from the web. Here's a suggestion though if you want to learn to code: 1. Start a singleplayer world (in creative if you want). 2. When you create a new...

Also, baked potatoes are great if you start farming them. they are easy to farm, stack to 64, and restore 3.5 chops per potato. thats 2x more than bread and its 1:1 potato to baked potato. you just need some charcoal or powered furnace.

Thanks.

For Soul Shards - When it comes to "absorbing spawners", does the spawner have to equal the entity of the shard? Like, I can't make a creeper shard and then go around sucking up zombie spawners to make it T5 can I?

Do you use a custom texture pack (like Sphax or Soartex)? I had been playing Direwolf20 for quite awhile at about 20 FPS thinking it was the norm. Then the guy who does the "FTB" version of Sphax posted that - for some reason - BuildCraft (a mod in both DW20 and MindCrack) is missing some code...

I've used wireless transmitters and receivers before, if you'd like some help. So, you want a system that stays off until the transmitters goes off, and then have it repeatedly fire for a certain amount of time? Have you gotten the wireless part working?

if you're using some other system to pick up items (transposers and water flow, for example) you can just add to your attack script to make the turtles spit them out: while true do turtle.attack() turtle.drop() sleep(0.3) end

I partially encountered this issue yesterday. I think you need to use the REAL creative menu, and not NEI - because I don't think NEI can see the "creative notebook" even if you're in creative mode.

There are a number of "deterrent" options from the different mods. While they may not prevent a creeper from exploding - they can work to keep the explosions away from your gear: * (The options mentioned above) * PortalMod - The Portal Sentry Turret * Steve's Carts - Fitting a cart with a...

It might - but an easier solution would be to use a different light source. for example, if you made some redpower2 lamps ("inverted" so they are always on) and then just stick those floating about 6 blocks above your rails - that would probably give enough light for the trees. You'll probably...

Are those two black blocks (1st picture) the wrath lamps? I believe that the way Wrath Lamps create light is that they actually "fill the area with light blocks". If this is true, then the "light" that the wrath lamps are creating may be blocking the saplings from growing. You would be better...

I think that's about your best bet. Redpower has a machine that can go from BC to RP (Relay) but not the other way around. The only alternative I can think of would be more complex. "Tube" --> "Regulator with timer" (set up to receive and then eject whatever you're voiding) --> ejecting into...

A very good video for bee breeding. Its unfortunate that bee breeding can be done early on, but "gates" have such a high startup cost (assembly table + lasers) and are extremely useful for bees.

Thanks. It's hard for me to keep track of which packs have which mods. :) And that seems reasonable. I usually keep my quarries small (and dig with turtles) because it gets the good stuff faster.

Since I'm at work and can't play or Mumble yet - I'll ask these questions for your Q&A since it seems to be a question that gets addressed on most FTB servers: * Limitations on automatic mining? Like "No Quarries" or "No Frame Bores", etc. * Limitations on Mystcraft? Like creating ages...
