How do you rename a linking book? The wiki says to right click with a feather, but that doesn't do anything.

Inputs and outputs are tedious? What? That's a very important part of AE. E.g., put an export bus on the top of a macerator, and an import bus on the side. The export bus will automatically export every iron ore you get and put the iron dust into AE. You put another export bus on a powered...

318 units/tick.

That was early in the game. Now that time has gone by, I now have an entire boiler dedicated to AE. I waste a bunch of power, but too much is better than too little. I was using an oil fabricator to use the excess power, under the impression that the oil fab would act like a matter fab does...

If you're running Ultimate, then Power Converters will convert a 36HP boiler to 350 EU/t.

I have 1.4.7 and I created over 2000 impregnated casings and 22k impregnated sticks overnight once.

No, they aren't always that rich.

In FTB, building an underground base is incredibly easy, because you can use fillers or quarries to dig a space out for you.

While I have no idea if this is true for the alveary recipe (I've never tried), I do know this is not true in general. A carpenter will definitely accept inputs from AE--that's how I created a bunch of impregnated sticks and impregnated casings. I had an export bus at the top, feeding in oak...

One annoying thing about AE is power. If you lose power, you lose all your mats. I had an engine explosion and it took out just enough power that AE wasn't working. So I had to remove the auto-crafter (which takes a lot of power), just so I could access the rest of my mats. But in order to make...

Ah safety. That's simple then. Yes, you could just use a separate network. But I would just make sure it's relatively far from the rest of the AE network. If it goes boom, all you'll lose is an export bus, an import bus, and some wire. You can be extra careful and just surround it with some of...

omg, what a complete brain fart. The reason nether wart wasn't showing up in my AE was because I had an export bus set to send all nether wart to the planter. So it wasn't going to show up in AE until the planter is full. It took until now (over 24 hours) for the planter to fill up. But from now...

Drives do not wear out. Never even noticed the number after the drive, to be honest.

Well, how fast does normal nether wart grow?

You'll need a separate pattern for each step. For example, you'll need a pattern for copper cables and for electronic circuit and for advanced circuit. When you ask it to make an advanced circuit, it checks if it has electronic circuit. If so, it uses it. Otherwise, it makes the electronic...

I love auto-crafting. I lost auto-crafting one day (my AE system ran out of power). Making even simple items was such a chore. Think, for example, of something simple like an electronic circuit. To do it manually, you need to make sure you have copper cable. If you don't, you need to make a...

I don't get how slow MFR farms can be without fertilizer. I needed some nether wart and there were only 2 around my base. So I quickly built a 3x3 MFR farm and planted the 2 nether wart about 24 hours ago. Within a couple of hours, it had already gotten to the point where 6 of the 9 blocks were...

I'll agree that AE is the way to go. Nothing spills. It's instantaneous it can go from one end of your base to another in an instant, as opposed to waiting for it travel via pipe). And it actually greatly simplifies your system. The way OP is doing it, you have to separate ores from non-ores...

Thanks for the replies. Looks like I'll be trying the export bus into a chest, with BC pipes going into the fertilizers. I just want to clarify the problem I'm having here, because people are talking about keeping a stack of fertilizer or having "enough" fertilizer. I don't keep fertilizer. A...
