I'm on a server and I've been using ender chests for a while with absolutely no problems. Today, I was trying an ender pouch charging setup. But now when I put anything in my ender chest or ender pouch, it disappears. I disconnected the ender chest from the setup and just set it down on its...

Is there such a thing as a portable charging station where I can charge my jetpack and nano armor? I've been carrying lava cells, a geothermal generator, and a wrench when I know I'll be out for a while (e.g., mining sheldonite in the End), but I'm wondering if there's an easier way.

This is an old thread. But how do you get the loot without setting off the TNT? It took me forever to finally clear out and light up both levels of the maze. When I finally get around to getting the loot, I broke one of the pressure plates, but it immediately landed on another pressure plate...

Apatite is high off the ground. Above sea level, iirc. So you won't find it by caving. I know Alpine biomes have a ton of them. There are also ways to increase the output of the apatite -> fertilizer conversion. There is a Thaumcraft item you find through research that will increases output...

Since either a single 4x4 multifarm or a Steve's Carts tree farm will run at least two 36HP boilers, why bother with MFR?

Not just fuel. The multifarm also requires a constant input of dirt and fertilizer. It's really annoying to have to run a quarry right when I first play for the day and again before I finish for the day, just because I need make sure it doesn't run out of dirt overnight. No more! I'm going to...

I finally did the comparison between an SC farm and a multifarm. In this corner, measuring 17 x 17, is the extra large multifarm: And in this corner, measuring 16 x 16 is the Steve's Carts tree farm: The methodology was simple. I started the timer when the cart unloaded its previous...

Can you still combine multiple soul shards to get additional souls in a shard? The wiki says combining two shards that each have one kill gives you a shard with 124 kills. What will I get if I combine one shard with 50 kills and one kill each on two other shards? If combining soul shards...

I'm trying to set up a comparison between a 5x5 multifarm and a 16x16 Steve's Cart tree farm. Obviously, with a working multifarm, I have access to a bunch of saplings. But what's super annoying is that, even though I originally planted oak saplings in the multifarm, they are now "apple oak...

Just for looks.

I wish I had paid as much attention to asthetics as most of you guys do. But it seems like I'm always telling myself "I'm just testing, I'll make it look better once I'm satisfied." Then I start working on other things. Nether lava into 12 geothermal generators (240 EU/tick): Item tesseract...

Possibly too early to tell. But after fixing the pipes, it seems to be working fine now. Been running at 1000 degrees for the last couple of hours. And the amount of planks in the storage chest next to the boiler is actually increasing, not decreasing. I'll check back tonight to see if it's...

As it turns out, there was a misplaced pipe I didn't notice before that was putting half the wood back into a chest (I had thought that wood pipes were one way, I was wrong.) So it is possible that this system will work. More testing today. BTW, yes, I'm using a sawmill. Two of them actually...

Woah, I was completely wrong about being able to support a solid-fueled boiler with this setup. Using the wood I had stored, I was able to get the boiler to 1000 degrees and charge 15 MFSU's. But after I disconnected the connection from existing wood storage so that the only wood going into the...

But the reasoning behind Forestry is pretty obvious--they don't want to make the game too easy. Just like some people think that nether lava is basically a cheat, a farm that produced enough to power 4 boilers without giving it any attention at all is probably too overpowered. So they make you...

It really isn't that expensive. It only needs copper and tin, which aren't exactly rare. And, as I said, I am currently running 2 full-size HP boilers off of a single 5x5 multifarm. And could probably run two more (I can definitely run one more full-sized liquid boiler, as I'm getting 50+...

The Forestry mod used to have the arboretum and logger for tree farms and the farm and combine for wheat farms. With version 2.0, they have made those obsolete and added a new farm--the multifarm. It's called "multi" because you can plant different items in it. It's divided into 4 quadrants...

Awesome! Thanks.

Yeah, I have to do something. Half the wood is too much--the boiler goes below 1000 degrees. I was thinking about some kind of router/timer setup. I don't have dark iron yet, but I suppose I can get some. In the meantime, I'll just put a golem there to pick up the dropped wood.

Got my second boiler running, this one off of the wood. It's a little annoying. The liquid one took some research to do, but once it's set, you forget it, because the iron tank fills up and the boiler takes only what it needs. With the solid fuel boiler, the extra wood just gets thrown onto the...
