    The most underused starting strategies?

    Now you come to mention it, yeah. I'm on my own server with my son, and we just bumble around where we are, it's kind of SSP as as it's just us two :) It's very true to life though "Daaad, can I have some.... ? " :) When I was on a SMP on Vanilla I was about 3000 from spawn, and I'd really...

    The most underused starting strategies?

    I need to have a better starting strategy. I always end up going mining for a bit and just kind of settling for somewhere, I've never really explored and found somewhere nice to be. I feel a move on the cards. I used to start down the IC2 route until I went onto the Mindcrack pack, now I'm well...

    Biogas Engines Eating Biomass While Off?

    Are you able to explain this a little more? (in very simple terms for a very simple person :) ) Is there a work around in the mean time? I just lost about 90,000 from my tank in less than a MC night, with only 2 engines running :(

    Biogas Engines Eating Biomass While Off?

    I noticed this with mine last night. Went from 420,000 to 99,000 over night. Now I know about this bug, I think I'll just turn off the lever on the side of my tank so it's not pumping when I'm off line. Bit cheaper than a chunk loader :)

    FTB Server Dedicated Server Admin Help

    once you do decide on the mod pack, look into it a lot. I'm using the Mindcrack pack and I'm thinking maybe it wasn't the best choice, there are things I want in, and things I want out. For me, I'd like to have EE in and the Gregtech not on hard mode, but I'm not 100% sure I can alter these...

    Soul Shard Help

    I believe you can't use a soul shard spawners to collect souls. So only naturally spawned or bred mobs/animals can be used for soul shards. I'm not sure where I heard this, maybe on a live stream, worth looking into though. Edit; I type too slow :(

    How to make a good tree farm?

    I heard someone, I think maybe Jadedcat say that the leaves from the trees cut down the sunlight to the solar panel, so sometimes this can become an issue.

    Magma crucible/general help

    For feeding the netherrack I'd probably have gone for hoppers to start off with, not "automated" as such but provides a good simple buffer to start off with.

    Is It Just Me?

    Also turns off a little bit of the fun IMO :)

    Yogscast on FTB

    I haven't had time to read all the posts in this topic (so sorry if it's been said before) but my tupence is that while they may have a younger audience, some of the language that is used is not suitable. I won't let my son watch them, and other youtubers for that reason, which is a shame...

    Question about pumping lava from the nether

    I haven't had chance to look at the video yet, I'm at work :( I used pipe wire to start off with, it was a shot in the dark, a bad shot, but a shot none the less. I have red alloy ingots ready to craft, so that'll be one of my first jobs :)
