    Nerfing the Nerfs!

    so basically,what im reading is, people dont like surviving in survival multiplayer, yet still play it and are complaining that they have to go into a scary cave. .... You can just cheat in quantum or go into creative mode if you don't like it. Don't advocate diluting my game experience...

    So rumors are GregT is now an IC2 dev

    I'd be fine with GT incorporated into ic2 if he left vanilla recipes alone and turned GT into a config setting for hard mode, in a way. Think about it, every Greg machine is a layer on top of ic2 that isn't really necessary but is useful if you want to make the investment. No only that, but...

    EU production - advice and suggestions please

    Believe it or not, early game nukes don't blow, Its all dependent on your implementation. Set up a simple reactor like this guy. Bam, 3 million EU for every uranium you dig up. It takes 3 stacks of copper ingots, a little more than a stack of iron, and 16 gold, and you've got 60 eu/t. Now...

    Advanced diamond drill: fortune III or silk touch?

    epic post is epic. Nice long book of awesomeness dude. namasdiaf, the only reason i use fortune is out of ignorance on blocks that dont produce an immediate byproduct. i dont know what fortune works on so i use it on iron/sheldonite/soul sand/etc, or of im not wanting to wait on the slow...

    Advanced diamond drill: fortune III or silk touch?

    While true, GT features a few resource bottlenecks that put you into a 'hurry up and wait' position. You start to feel the crunch primailry with diamond/ruby(lapotrons), ruby/redstone(chrome), and in cases of super Solars and reactors, uranium. Iridium is actually not that big of an issue...

    Advanced diamond drill: fortune III or silk touch?

    Nikolite ore will give nikolite, but you are correct that the GT grinding of it gives the bonus of diamond dust and not diamond. I think its fair considering there's still plenty of applications of diamond dust in GT. In GT, silk touch is significantly more profitable on gemmy/'round' ore...

    An alternative to uncrafting table?

    I do wish he'd change it to force 'wood' like every other tree in the game. A pedantic gripe, but a gripe nonetheless.

    Mindcrack iron vs xycraft tanks

    A little known gem: Rc tanks can do this too but only vertically. if you stack rc tanks ontop of each other with valves connecting them, overflow from the bottom tank will flow to tank 2 and can be be drawn from tank 1.

    Are wrath lamps fixed?

    I ran into a strange problem after this fix. What happens is the forestry multifarms work fine with wrath lamps nearby, but an mfr oak farm won't work with them above. Its bizarre, like sengir fixed the forestry saplings from checking for id-0 but the vanilla saplings still check for id-0. Is...

    How to autocraft tesseract with AE?

    I personally prefer and use the gregtech logistics machines whenever possible for interface connection similar to what you mentioned. Like someone said, the diamond pipe solution has overflow and overstock issues, but its the cheapest and simplest early game implementation so went with that for...

    How to autocraft tesseract with AE?

    me interface feeding a diamond pipe that splits to the crucible and transposer. ender pearl filtered to crucible, tesseract frame filtered to transposer. both machines next to each other, with import bus or pipe leading back to interface on the transposer. endcode the pattern for 4 ender...

    Is there anything that can cause a nuclear reactor to spontaneously explode?

    nuclear control is not a suitable control mechanism for crcs/ condensator reactors. Test it by switching the temp to zero, and youll see what I mean. It has a pretty significant delay before sending out its signal, and the temp reading only updates once a sec. I'm on a phone so I can't see...

    Energy bridge alternative - Unleashed

    that, and lag. disabled, every person on the server ends up with 60 steam engines instead of a powerconverter+tesseract bridge. some people enjoy engine rooms, which is great. for everyone else, and for server cpu cycles everywhere, let them have their powerconverters.

    FTB Unleashed Sounds

    A fairly annoying set of sounds present in unleashed is the ic2 machines. If you're into loud metallic sounds, set up some automatic ore processing with them.

    Bio Reactor not accepting multifarmed saplings?

    It should only affect trees, so you should be fine with any crops. The tree breeding is what makes the multifarms tree exclusive to forestry machines. I think the only crop breeding is, surprisingly, associated with ic2 or something.

    You could do it on one of those economy mod servers. Might actually make those mods not suck too

    Bio Reactor not accepting multifarmed saplings?

    Another tangent to the thread: has anyone studied how efficient a multi farm is with advanced saplings compared to a fertilized farm? I think it'd make for an interesting comparison, say, mahogany multi farm vs mfr oaks. I'm curious whether the long term forestry gains are valuable enough...

    Question: Efficiency and what to do next, Fusion race!

    BTW, I should mention, very nice building style and town layout. Impressive looking setup.

    Question: Efficiency and what to do next, Fusion race!

    thats not nearly enough to start a proper reactor, even though it seems like a lot. for low maintenance low running cost reactors, a 2500eu/t stack is going to burn about 6000 copper and several thousand tin and iron. then to maximize the uranium its going to cost about 2,000 copper for the...
