^^^You, sir, know how to build some gorgeous structures. I am quite envious. Particularly your very first and very last pictures. :)

Ah that's my bad. "turtle.sleep" should just be "sleep". So: while true do turtle.select(1) turtle.place() sleep(500) turtle.dig() sleep(370) end Also, I'm guessing 1227 is a regular turtle, but I'm not positive. You will most likely need a mining turtle. (If you have...

The other way to reduce lag using code along the lines of your first example is just to reduce how often the turtle tries to attack. The sleep command is what you're looking for, though I would use it in a simpler way than you were suggesting. For instance: while true do turtle.attack()...

First, make sure that the redstone torch is in the turtle's very first inventory slot. Also, just so you know, as long as the turtle doesn't have to move it will never run out of fuel. :D Try this: while true do turtle.select(1) turtle.place() turtle.sleep(500) turtle.dig()...

If your bores aren't getting the blocks, then yeah I would suggest block breakers. But why do you want your ship to be that wide? If you make it narrow enough that the entire thing fits through the space cleared by the arcane bores, then you'll be good to go! (Make it longer if you need more...

Well I'm lucky enough to be a graduate student working at Iowa State University's Virtual Reality Application Center. Unless you're into VR big time, you probable haven't heard of it. But all you need to know is that we have the single highest-resolution immersive virtual reality environment in...

Hmmm, I don't know of any reason why that wouldn't work. Maybe try a different type of furnace just to see what happens? Maybe an IC2 variant or even a vanilla furnace? You may have to move the import bus to the side, I'm not sure. But at least that would help you determine if the problem is...

The way I see it, he was smart enough to search for an existing thread on his question rather than starting a new one. Granted, his question wasn't accompanied by enough information for us to really help him out, but I figured I would at least honor the attempt...

There's no way we can tell you whether there's a dark node nearby without being able to explore you world. I assume that you're wearing goggles of revealing? Also the lilypad shouldn't have anything to do with it, as that's from Xeno's Reliquary I believe.

Very much so. When a queen dies, the traits of its offspring are NOT determined by the traits of the queen itself. Instead, the traits of the offspring are determined by the traits of the princess and drone that the queen was made from.

There's an uncrafting table from Twilight Forest I believe, but I've never used it and I don't know what items it actually works on. I think you need some special items to create it anyway - so you'd probably be just as well spending that same time to mine some new iron.

Yep, right-click on the knob on the front. Orange side up will cause the tank to drain. Blue side up will allow it to accept liquid just like any other tank.

Mods like EE or Soul Shards do some things for you (typically the boring things) to allow you to do even bigger and better things than you could do before. Or at least, that's the goal. Balance will always be an issue, but the fundamental concepts are sound. Like you said, they're tools. More...

This. My first modded-Minecraft worlds got very boring very quickly because I was just trying to accomplish the same things that I tried to accomplish in vanilla. And it was much too easy. If you run into that problem, just ramp-up your goals! That said, I do agree that there is something...

Chickenchunks loaders definitely are. I use them across the overworld, the nether, the twilight forest, and mystcraft ages fairly frequently. I haven't tried Railcraft anchors myself.

Well perhaps the huge array of additional blocks that FTB offers over vanilla could make up for that. :D Oh... :oops: My experience doesn't extend past ME2 I'm afraid... and even that is sparse at best...

:D

If your intention is just for overnight, then yeah probably. But plenty of people would find a way. Regardless, I love being able to have my sorting system send any and all monazit to the same place and know that my MFFS system has full and automatic access to my entire supply at all times. :D

Right - but depending whether those pipes are being fed intelligently or not, you could still end up with thousands of items in there.

In that case all you're missing is the export bus! Shouldn't be too tough. :)
