    Applied energistics autocrafting, I want AUTOcrafting!

    ehm, just put an export bus on the multifarm and set it to "single item/craft".. no need to keep fertilizer stocked in your network

    Distillation Tower

    The distillation tower is more efficient for turning biomass to biofuel. It converts at a 2:1 ratio instead of the 10:3 ratio a still gives.

    industrial grinders, worth it or not?

    Imho the ind grinder is only worth it if you use chemicals instead of water in it, like ferrous ore + mercury cells. For bulk processing I prefer pulverizers since they also give some additional stuff but are way more compact, easier to setup, cheaper and need way less energy.

    Applied Energistics priority

    You don't have to get "crazy" with level emitters, you just need one emitter per blocktype you want to recycle. Configure the emitters to send a redstone signal when the stock is above the limit you specified and the export bus on your recycler to activate on signal, thats it. Only downside...

    Endertanks vs Tesseracts Pros And Cons?

    You don't need to actively pump out of an Endertank, just flip the small valve at the front. Private frequencies are also possible in the same way you'd set an Enderchest to private, right click the valve with a diamond. But I also still prefer Tesseracts since it is way easier to manage...

    Applied Energistics and Batbox help

    easiest way would be to put a lever on the batbox and change its redstone behaviour to "Do not output energy"

    which trees make the best tree farm.

    the most saplings / space would be a multifarm with oak trees that have the triple saplings trait bred into... sadly SC can't handle mod trees

    Am I the only one who uses bronze armour?

    TBH the only armor sets I usually build are Nano and later Quantum. Until Nano I just use random armor pieces from chests.

    IC2 Mining Airship (RP2 Frames)

    Don't use iron chests on them, they are crashing frames.

    Sorting Machine - Stack of Cobble Sucked up and doesn't work anymore

    The cobble probably has no valid destination so it gets backstuffed into the sorter which causes a jam. Put more chests/barrels in your system (or just void cobble)

    A few MJ power questions

    The peatbog's main purpose is to generate dirt to resupply your treefarm. The old forestry farms can suck up much power but only require 1MJ/t to operate properly, more power just increases its scanning speed (not an issue) and harvesting speed (only relevant for treefarms to some degree)...

    Pulverized ferrous ore

    Just a small advice: You want to hold on to your ferrous ore until you have an industrial grinder to get platinum out of it. In the meantime you can get nickel from processing iron ore in a pulverizer with a 10% chance.

    How to only fill items when necessary?

    The conditions actually allow for a big buffer, you can set them to e.g. soil<32 (or was it 64?) which leaves you with plenty of buffer space.

    What Am I doing Wrong? Sorting.

    they are doing what they are supposed to: going to the nearest inventory... your brown line is two blocks too far. To solve this you could move the sorting machine either 2 blocks to the left and connect it with regular tubes or move it onr block left and put a restriction tube in front of it.

    Picking up IC2 items?

    A bronze wrench still has a chance to break the machine, only an electric wrench on lossless mode guarantees that the machine won't break.

    Looking for Advice for FTB Mindcrack

    first you really want to upgrade your geothermal generator to a thermal generator, it generates 30k EU instead of 20k EU per bucket. Then you really don't need to use buckets to transport lava, just grab yourself a stack of cans (tin) or cells (more expensive) and just rightclick the lava with...

    A simple computercraft query...

    First, you really need to add some sleep commands into that infinite loop otherwise it could very well crash your game ;) Second, I'm pretty sure the redstone output has to stay on for at least 1 tick (1/20th of a second) to get recognised by the filter (again sleep() ) Third, you don't reset...

    Using a filler

    Maybe something is blocking the filler. Do you have wrath lamps in the area? They generate invisible blocks that maybe stop the filler, dont know for sure though.

    Using a filler

    Do you have enough energy? Enough blocks? Else you can try to reset the filler by pulling out one of the blocks in the recipe slot and put it back in.
