That would be awesome. I mean, for a good chunk of mods a single key that has an contextual action (i.e. does something dependant on what item you are holding) should work fine. (Think of how WASD is used in FPS for movement both on foot and in vehicles.)

I recently saw another mod that adds the ability to enchant certain buildcraft blocks (notably, the quarry), resulting in various effect/changes. Perhaps similar enchanting of some vanilla blocks could be allowed? Ex: Furnace -> Efficiency increases burn time of fuel. Fire aspect increases...

I will concede that farming XP is more boring and pointless as having to mine several stacks of redstone or lapis or what-have-you. But I never farm XP. I usually get enough by smelting, mining, killing, etc. I.e. by just playing. Again, I concede that I am probably not the average player. So...

Fully agree on this. Pre-emptive apology for what might sound like a rant at you, but it is a rant about mod recipes in general. (Clenching teeth) I love Tinker's Construct, but I have to admit that I rather strongly dislike its 'enchanting' mechanic. It is, in my opinion at least, upgrading...

I'd like to add my support for the suggestions so far, both the "upgrading your enchanting table" approach and the suggestion to keep current E-Plus functionality. On the "Upgrading your enchanting table" I'd like to see the items being placable blocks near the enchanting table that boost it...

I also vote for Ars Magica to be included in the magic pack.

Note that they usually only overheat if all the energy they produce is not being used. (I.e. your electrical engines are producing too much) I've powered quarries using three electrical engines and a hybrid solar panel, and they run indefinitely without overheating (except during the quarry...

The Universal-Electricity nuclear power works like that. I.e. generates steam that turns turbines. Insert control rods to reduce heat output (i.e. prevent a meltdown), needs water to evaporate into steam, etc...

I would also recommend the Easy Crafting mod. It is 1.4.2 compatible, and Lepko (the developer) had recently updated it to include IC2 recipes, and be compatible with FTB. It is still somewhat in early developement, so some bugs might be expected, but so far Lepko has been very quick at fixing...

Just want to throw my support in for this suggestion. Reason: Offers full support for all mods, numerous ore generation shapes (including plain vanilla method), has extremely useful and flexible XML config file. The config options allows you to easily create XML files that the user can toggle...
