Looking for mods that encourage the idea that automation should take some effort. Also looking for some that might have some fun things to do end game/when you need a change of pace. I haven't played modded Minecraft in a year+, but saw some videos on immersive engineering + buildcraft 7...

Asked a similar thing on reddit. Thought I would get some feedback here as well. What would you do to make safari net more of a late game item? I was using minetweaker to force me to try some new playstyles/mods. Tried a run with just netherstar in place of tear and it changes the timing a...

So applied energistics has been out a while now. I am sure we have all done an implementation or two. What tricks have you come up with? My first trick is on farmables // infinite stream items. I format them to a basic storage disk and then also set that item on a storage bus connected to an...

MFR = Minefactory Reloaded. I was trying something new and decided to play with the MFR machines as much as I could. So far they have all turned out to be pretty cool. Anyone know the range on the Auto-Spawner? It seems to prefer an open space as close to the spanwer as it can. But i...

I imagine development for 1.4.7 has basically stopped for all mods. Anyone watch the FTB streamers and hear anything about one last update? For my local instance I have manually updated most of the mods in ultimate to a newer version if the mod had one available. Only trouble i had was with...

First Ugocraft is a mod focused on putting blocks into motion. The mod has been updated for 1.4.7, 1.5.1, and works in the ultimate pack -- with a config edit to set it's block ID's to unused ones. May work in the other packs... i only checked ultimate. In it's config (generated on first...

I enjoy trying to engineer the simplest way to run and automate IC2 miners moving on frame ships. I have ran into a lot of frame bugs, but thankfully AE works really nice with frames. When ultimate came out i started playing with AE and it plus a turtle can get you a pretty nice 5x3x2 layout...

Any of these AE machines have a detector like function? I have a flow of items from a miner/pump. When they are both idle for about a minute or two its a pretty good sign you hit bedrock and it is time to packup and move. Would like to detect that in AE and kick off some redstone to move...

For 6 axis movement inch worm makes a lot of sense, but if you know you want to go multiblocks in one direction they can be slow. I remember seeing a fast and simple system to handle multiply moves in one direction quickly/smoothly. I have been going over videos and while I've found some...

Edit: Issue resolved -- Buildcraft wooden and emerald pipes cause the issue with the moving frames. So i spent the last day or so working on a simple mining platform that automates the IC2 miner and then moves it. It is 4 miners in a square with the logic in the center. I am testing the...

Using the mindcrack pack. Loading the enderchest with any machine/pipe/tube etc does not save the changed contents. It only saves when the player interacts with the contents or pumps an item out. So loading a chest with just an automated method and then save/exit will lose everything that...

Working on the industrial centrifuge right now, but does anyone have a site or know the common input/output sides for the EU based machines and gregtech? For industrial centrifuge it seems any side can pull all the outputs out after the other. Top can input the item to centrifuge. Does...

Lava below - water/ice to 3 sides and top. Wire to one side. A water source block just needs to be on top - flowing water counts and will automatically flow to 3 sides. If you use ice you will need to use solid blocks around the lava :p Water vs ice makes no difference though and each...

Does anyone have a simpler/smaller method to go in any direction? My current system for horizontal movement is 5x5x4 lever/wireless redstone controlled or 5x5x5 wired. Adding on vertical movement is 3 more to one side, so 8x5x 4/5 I tried some other designs and most had you rotating hidden...

Here are the missing values: TC3 Infused stone, Cinnabar Ore - 200 xycraft Aluminum - 220 Xycraft ores - 220 Xycraft Quartz Crystal - 221 Traincraft? Crude Oil- 246 Traincraft Oil sand - 247 Modular Forcefield Mozanit - 688 Pack config should be updated, but I heard the the miner uses client...
