Some tips. Build quarries over ocean which as no flowing water. As the quarry hits the ocean bed and mines, water will not flow. This reduces the lag from flowing water calculations. Quarries chunkload, which in itself is not bad, unless you have many other chunkloaders, and/ or players...

I think its a bug. We have a similar issue, whereby our creeper spawner requires someone to be close by to work, even though our blaze spawner does not require anyone in proximity. Tried both chunk loader and world anchor, no difference.

I would beg to disagree. I still stand by being flexible on the definition of griefing. PvP whereby someone repetitively kills someone (blood feud?), might be seen as griefing by some, and not by others. I think your are too narrowly defining griefing when referring to blasting huge holes...

Ok, gave FE and MCPC+ a shot. FE works partially; permissions were not working, neither were the commands. Chat was working alright it seemed. Didnt test the other modules. MCPCP+ seemed to be doing alright. Back to FE :) EDIT: Oops tested with an older version of FE. Will try with the newer...

You cant be too rigid on the definition. One person may consider PvP greifing, the other, not so much. I think its up to the server admin(s) to interpret greifing and apply limits/ rules tailored to their definition.

Ars Magica is a mod that adds magic, new npcs, new items, new worldgen structures. Its pretty much a mod where you collect, create and learn spells. One of the items added can act as item transformer. So if you dump cobble in, out comes netherrack. Its not very efficient though, so making...

Initially i was skeptical of the scrapbox setup, thought it would too OP, but after a server member built a relatively large one and we monitored it for a few weeks, i have had to conclude that its not OP. You get a lot of junk, hardly anything valuable. Its now only being used for filled cans...

If your more interested in SMP backups (although i suspect you are talking about SPP), McMyAdmin, a gui admin interface for minecraft servers, can set quit a few scheduled tasks, including world saves and backups, and the ability to keep it delete older if over a set number. The scheduler also...

No worries, i wouldnt dream of asking for help for this since i dont expect this to work well; both MCPC+ and FE are likely to conflict. But cant hurt to try :) Github issues are for the mod/ plugin in question. I dont think i would have posted an issue since this is fringe work/...

Hmmm, MFFS cant be self sustainable it think. Due to forcicium being non renawble. The eu required can be renewable, but a mffs field, especially large ones eat forcicium at a ferocious rate. Correct me if im wrong though :)

I believe methane from beef from a cow spawner might net you a positive eu output with industrial centrifuges to gas turbines. Plus you can get cooked beef if you have igniters in the spawner and loads of leather.

Another option is to disable greifing (however you define it) on the server for a certain amount of time. As soon as everyone is self sufficient, relax the rules. Thats what were are doing. We are even keeping some mods back just for this point in time (ICBM, trailmix, etc). The only...

On our server we produce energy in a couple ways atm with Mindcrack + Mystcraft/ Ars Magica/ UE. MJ is produced by Forestry tree/ bog/ wheat farms making biomass then biofuel and is almost self renewable apart from apatite, which you need little of. Biofuel is burnt in HP liquid boiler...

I find it neat that we have 3+ options here for plugin emulation/ support, and furthermore, the devs from each team are friendly and responsive. I see a bright future for FTB plugin emulation/ support. ForgeEssetials from personal experience has almost no impact on server performance. However...

The only option that im aware of is to use the bukkit plugin WorldEdit, which has a regenerate chunk option. To get worldedit to work you need either BukkitForge or MCPC+

Thank you for this very informative post :) I initially started with bukkitforge, which worked pretty well as of build 190 with some bugs. However, i found it to have quick a significant impact on cpu load. This was with no plugins installed. Its been updated a lot since then. Might try it...

Thanks :) As Dafuq? pointed out, each side of the tessearct only takes up to 160 units. The thread he mentioned was the inspiration for this as well. Should have linked it ;) And this setup can be used for anything mj related. Its great. Advanced bee keeping takes ridiculous amounts of power...

Here is another idea. Get a fuel production setup that creates renewable mj fuel such as biofuel/ methane/ blaze rods/ lava. Dump these into solid/ liquid HP boiler. Run liquiduct pipes from the boiler to a liquid tesseract input. The liquid tesseract has no loss, unlike the energy tesseract...

MC Edit has been reported to corrupt heavily modded saves/ worlds. Be careful :D

Thanks for the idea! Will give it a shot. Would this method require that I redistribute the patched mods to clients as well, or is it only necessary server side?
