    What do I do with all this aluminium?

    ITT: anti-skub.

    Crafting recipes that you hate

    Electronic circuits. Because you have to make the components a trillion times. Oh, and timers, because they only need two out of the three anodes that you make per crafting.

    Too much Mutatio

    Yes, actually. there's a rarely-used vanilla multiblock that you can use it for. Basically, you go out someplace with some space, and start by digging three blocks straight down,

    Confessions: I never ... even though I'm told I should.

    I never balance processing systems in order to minimize item pipe volume, because a pipe filled solid with blocks is fun to look at.

    Confessions: I never ... even though I'm told I should.

    I dont build sorting systems, because real men store everything they own on the floor. I powered my base with biofuel from a steves cart treefarm, got 2400 stacks of wood, and now i am generating UU matter from a set of generators powered by charcoal because screw the environment

    Best early-game source of power?

    The process is identical for both, actually. just means you dont need anyone else to update. Yes, the version number appears on the zip file, and is the easiest way to tell the difference. eg. "MFR_1.0.5b"

    Best early-game source of power?

    You'd drop the .zip file for the updated version into the mods folder, in place of the old one. Then you would need all the people who use your server to do the same.

    Epic Fail stories

    That feeling when the buildcraft pipes leading out of your 64x64 BC quarry cross outside of your chunkloaded area.

    Best early-game source of power?

    It's in an upcoming update for MFR. It converts plants directly into biofuel, and the more varieties of plants you process at once, the more efficient it becomes at processing them.

    Best early-game source of power?

    not as far as i'm aware. redpower does boast some of the earliest powered furnaces though.

    Apocalypse Bunker Idea

    Mystcraft skylands island. One floating rock in the middle of nowhere; nothing can get you, and you live with class.

    Best early-game source of power?

    It really depends on what tech chain you want to focus on, since there's "best"s for every option. MJ power generally always begins with a hobbyist engine or three, and a basic generator is the only way to start up in IC2. redpower's mor difficult, as the only power gen that doesnt require a...

    Any neat way to teleport in FTB ?

    As Fuzzle said. Nothing beats how handy linking books are. Myself, i like to create a twilight void age with a small, fancy platform to stick em on, so that you have a nexus to all the locations you frequent.

    MFR - Bioreactor. Values?

    A RP sorting machine, set to only output when it has one each of your nine items, which then pipes through an item detector whose redstone signal activates a 5s state cell would ensure that your items are always at max efficiency, and that the bioreactor is always off when it is receiving those...

    Some help with routers

    I've resolved it: The router required that it be adjacent to a line of turtles in order to function. I moved the router away from the lever, and replaced it with a turtle. It now works as intended. Thanks for the help

    Some help with routers

    I need it to withdraw from them, actually, and output to the barrel. So far, it's reluctant, even though it recognizes the turtles as an inventory.

    Some help with routers

    Literally the first thing i tried, i'm afraid. Will the router still affect the relevant inventories if it's not adjacent? Because i can move it over and take the lever out of the equation entirely.

    Some help with routers

    I'm trying to get a router to extract blaze rods from my turtle-based farm, and deposit them into adjacent chests. However, the router refuses to do anything whatsoever, withdraw or insert, even if i place the blaze rods in its inventory. I have the required upgrades, but might have set it up...

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    As a person looking to get into mystcraft's new system, how in hell am i supposed to get enough emeralds to build up a respectable library of pages?
