    Powering a Quarry...

    replying to original poster The quarry mines at a speed that depend on the charge level of its internal storage which is 15000MJ total. if E is the stored energy The head moves at a rate of 0.1+(2+E/500)/200 blocks/tick which means the speed ranges from 0.1 block per tick to 0.26 blocks per...

    Thoughts on the Quarry

    About quarries and its costs. Moving 1 block costs 20-123MJ and digging one block takes 60Mj. this means the cost per block is 80-183MJ . The cost depend on how "charged" the quarry is if you limit its power to a minimum it will mine at a speed of 2 blocks per second at maximum it's 5.2 blocks...

    Looking for a new modpack!

    Unleashed has all those features in some form or another except for xycraft which is mostly used as a cheap/flexible alternative to iron tanks . Unleashed is still a fairly easy pack because it has dart-craft and has no greg-tech. There is going to be a variation of it soon called...

    Mining well nerfs.....

    I think the nerf isn't in yet after farther testing I tested my mining well script in 0.8 in single well mode and the results weren't too logical for 60mj/t . I also tested in 0.7 and my results weren't too logical. The mining script I wrote has a cycle of : back, placeDown,back,place,down...

    Getting a turtle to drop stuff into a chest behind it...

    Because the turtle can only do operations up, down and forward here is a small tip: If you are writing turtle scripts that involve placement of blocks(build script/mining well, etc) then the turtle would be better off moving backwards. If you are writing a dig script it's a good idea to...

    Mining well nerfs.....

    Maybe Dires ideas aren't always original but he does teach them very well. ------------------------------------------- Yesterday I did some testing with the new mining well and pipes and how they affect my script. The new things I've found(might repeat things said on this thread: - a mining...

    Mining well nerfs.....

    Using turtles to move mining wells around might be Direwolf20's idea but people are free to write their own computercraft to programs. It's true that the nerf can be painful but it is not necessarily a deathblow to mining wells - it's still pretty fast and low tech . Now all you need is to...
