    is there a way to automate a quartz grind stone?

    I understand that the crank was given a smaller hitbox and that the turtle just hits air now. If that's the case, then the thaumic tinker thingy probably doesn't work either.

    How much stuff can i auto?

    Well, easiest way to automate an IG input in 1.4.7 is to put a hopper on top, a single wooden pipe above it connected to a chest. Use an autarchic gate set to "inventory empty - pulser" and it'll read when the hopper is empty, start sending stuff, then stop when it reads that the hopper is no...

    FTB EU power source for a beginner?

    Side-note: Chunkloader set to max (if the server allows it) to minimise the frequency of having to move it. Pump will stop working if it it's spotloaded and drains all the lava in the loaded chunk; it will not pull from neighbouring unloaded chunks.

    FTB EU power source for a beginner?

    Distillation Tower requires significant automation in order to set up and keep running. It only accepts/outputs cells so you need to link in two liquid transposers to create the biomass cells and empty the biofuel cells. It also requires regular biomass input which in turn requires a fermenter...

    Whitelist Server [1.6.4] JCraft Dedicated Server 100+ Tech mods and more!

    I can endure the boredom for a few more days. :P There's just a few mods that have been added that I've no experience with and am interested in seeing how they hold up against hardmode Gregtech.

    Whitelist Server [1.6.4] JCraft Dedicated Server 100+ Tech mods and more!

    Good to see that we're getting there! I'm not au fait with the process; can we not start up the new world, distribute the private pack to the existing members and then submit the pack to the launcher afterwards? Eager to get tinkering. :)

    Somewhat Noob Question About Pipes

    Or a couple of deep storage units and a chest. :p

    Methane still a good boiler fuel?

    Side-note on the mulch thing; compost. Wheat and dirt are infinitely less of a hassle than running a moistener setup. Factorization routers really ease the automation too. Also mulch bees. :) .. and possibly Apatite bees in the new updates if what I was hearing was correct.

    How to config Server to make chuck loaders work meanwhile I´m offline

    I'm with bomb bloke on this one, I've experience with T5 soul shards that support what he's saying. Decided to make a "spawner hub" away from my base (to avoid noise pollution) connected to wireless redstone so that I could activate whatever spawner I wanted and have the drops automatically be...

    Yup, Taco .. and yup, Dwappo .. that is the hive from RE1. :P .. it was the original inspiration for the build.

    Underground Base Ideas

    Kinda like: But square, with glass walls, less floors and without the extra rooms at the bottom

    Underground Base Ideas

    I don't have any pictures unfortunately (the server I was playing on disappeared before I'd finished the build) but my favourite underground base design was an inverted glass pyramid. I'll try to explain it in a way that makes sense. I quarried out a huge area all the way down to bedrock (49...

    FTB Mod Discussion: Greg-Tech

    Not really understanding the drama with the flint and steel change. Can very easily light a nether portal with a fire charge unless something has changed recently. Edit: Nope, still doable.

    What Kind of Node is this?

    Greg's magic absorber. It turns nodes into EU. :p

    How to get a lot of gunpowder?

    It's a mod interaction exploit based on a different bug with a different mod in the ultimate/mindcrack/direwolf pack.

    How to get a lot of gunpowder?

    Well, I'm not sure what you're doing differently from me, but I just tested it to see if it'd changed. 1 kill shard + 1 kill shard = 124 kill shard. Easy to verify in a test world if you don't believe me.

    How to get a lot of gunpowder?

    Aye, can't remember the exact figure off the top of my head, but 1+1 = 100 or so.

    How to get a lot of gunpowder?

    I think you misunderstand the nature of the bug/exploit. If you use it, you literally only have to kill about 10 mobs. Edit: There's actually an even WORSE bug where you can get a T5 creeper shard by literally killing 2 mobs.

    How to get a lot of gunpowder?

    Bees is the way to go. Get an Austere bee running in a desert and you'll never worry about gunpowder again. Those scrubs PRODUCE.
