If xycraft updates, I'd imagine a comparator would interface nicely with the Xycraft tank level emitter block. You wouldn't really need to make the comparator work for power, would you? You could just set up comparator levels so that when inventory is nonempty, the Rednet controller switches...

One term for this is "Platform Whitelisting" and it is exceptionally commonplace in corporate applications and most web apps. I have several pieces of major brandname software that literally won't run because their authors can't be bothered to update the installer with a list of current...

Maybe I was too subtle in my efforts to underline human nature without saying something that could be misinterpreted as an accusation. Because as much bias and anger is floating around on both sides right now, I really think the results of any vote would be suspect. I agree the issue is a...

In fairness, the FTB team already made their decision and has no reason to go back on it at present, so this isn't the time nor place for democracy. Even if it were undecided, it's still not the right place for democracy. I really don't think any good will come from a mixture of angry fans and...

So don't use a wooden pipe for the gate. Slap a cobble/gravel pipe on it to attach the gate to, but otherwise use your TE RS conduit.

Yeah, moving away from auto-smelting would help. It'd be kind of nice if there was a way to have level emitters emit a level based on items on order. I wonder if that's been a feature request ever.

If you're using energy cells, you might be able to save some energy bleed with gates and cobble pipes on the lasers. I recall seeing someone demonstrate a "charge energy cells when they're not full" logic gate setup on youtube, you could modify it to something like "has work: send redstone...

I'd been hesitating to mention it since it's sort of hackish and obscenely power intensive, but you could always build multiple laser chambers and route to and from them using machine filtered routers. Depending on how end game your power system is, you could probably crank the full 9x9x4 laser...

I forgot about this one since my server doesn't have Xycraft: if you have Xycraft fabricators and MFR item routers handy, you could program an "incorrect" recipe that has ingots in place of the dust, put it into an interface that over the MFR item router, configure the router to distribute the...

The "other" solution is to just keep your dusts around in dust form, build an ME Interface for your Furnace, and then program a recipe with "1 dust -> 1 ore" and do everything on demand instead of autosmelt. (Alternatively, just don't autosmelt anything which might be used in a recipe in it's...

The simplest solution would be to put a block next to the export bus dumping into your furnace, put a switch on it, then toggle the export bus to "active without signal" and flip the switch. Pulverize your ore, then craft the reflectors, and flip the switch off again.

It's a bit of heresy, but that's actually how I'd describe Better than Wolves. (at least, back when I played it, right before FC went "hardcore all teh thingz" meme on it.) Each "tier" begins by gaining the ability to automate everything you had to do by hand for the tier's gateway condition as...

"what one addition or change"... But there are too many. :( I guess if I had to go for a single change, I'd probably go for adding Smart Moving. I love being able to scale walls and crawl or megaman powerslide through 1 block tall tunnels. I went without it so long because of server play...

Those look suspiciously like the lines of mDiyo's code that add the vanilla plank recipes to the end of the recipe list to me. Isn't one missing from directly above that? I thought there was also one for Flint and SteelIron?

Has energy, like "Does this engine have energy stored in it". (that's actually what the setting is for. somehow Apiaries are showing up as BC energy containers.)

There's not much to it, you can find it or something fundamentally identical on most youtube bee tutorials. You aren't going to be "only inserting one drone", but because the loop is closed you're not introducing new drones to the detriment of other beeboxes, you'll only have what's in the box...

You shouldn't be using AE for production line drones or breeding machines. You should be using closed loop Apiarist pipes which vent excess drones into a void pipe and all valid products drop into an ME interface. If you absolutely have to use AE for your bee setup, you should also be using an...

If your intent is to simply make it rain 24/7 for maximum lightning rod potential, Forestry has a rainmaker machine that requires reagents from industrious and imperial bees, if I recall right. And it can be automated with a rain sensor.

Yeah, I'm right there with you. Cobblestone ramparts and Tree farms that produce torches are as a pair, an invincible, gamebreaking mechanic for the vestigial organ that is the RPG half of minecraft. It can be done, but not with the framework Minecraft has - More than a few entities breaks the...

I haven't noticed such, but I have noticed that while the range is increased, the Work timer is not decreased, so it takes the same amount of time per square tended. I assume this is the case, but for thoroughness - the red power bar is full?
