[1.6.4]Crash Landing [Hardcore, HQM] version 1.1.x BETA STABLE
- Thread starter Iskandar
- Start date
I was looking for a way to light up large areas but I'm too used to using wrath lamps or the Thaumcraft lamps, so I added Greg's Lighting to the pack. It's nice but it has some issues. Greg's Lighting adds spotlights that create a line of invisible light emitters along a line about 50 blocks from the lamp. It doesn't interfere with tree growth but if a tree grows in the path, or if you accidentally build into the path of the spotlight it removes all of the invisible lights further along the light path. So by placing one wrong block or a tree growing in the wrong spot you could suddenly have a 50X15 block area go dark. There's a version of the light that uses no power, just 8 blocks of glowstone per spotlight, there's a version that uses water coal and bonemeal, and there's a version that uses IC2 power.
What would be really nice is a stand alone wrath lamp or a tech version of Thaumcraft's lamp. Some way to lessen the tons and tons of torches or glowstone corners spread all over the ground.

You make 4 days? I have chronic heatstroke by day 3 with nothing close to a stable water supply yet.
check out
Landstryder, FunshineX, Purplementat and others on youtube
Edit: and lets not forget Magzie
You need to get the slabs furnace by day 3. this will let you get iron ingots. you can take those and make shears. then put the leaves you get into the Trans which will give you saplings and water. Use the saplings as you wish.[DOUBLEPOST=1408970665][/DOUBLEPOST]
FMP?
My strategy for the first days (worked every time since version 1.08):
- Do the first quest to get the camel pack, fill it up and equip it.
- Dig a 2 deep trench around the ship (with your bare hands) approx. 24x24
- Use the remainder of day (not a lot!) to build a wall on the inside of the trench
- Do a few more quests to get the birch sapling and start growing it.
- Keep an eye out for spiders!
- Sieve dust to get enough stones (24 for a slab furnace)
- Switch to sears asap
- I never use the transposer for water except for a few quest, I push for the crucible
Sometimes I do not melt the leaves fast enough and I need to boil dirty water but on average a single crucible (over lava) supports me forever. In fact I am still using a single crucible (approaching day 100), but now I generate the leaves with the planter/harvester combo.
trans give more water cause you can put the saplings back in for more water. It will run fine on two surv generators.
I personally make a shovel asap. I wanna minimize the amount of "hot" work I do outside. It typically means cutting down 2-3 trees on day 1 before your trench/wall is at all safe.
Also, some people don't bother with the full trench on the first day. You can probably get by just digging a hole in front of your ship door. I haven't tried this though.
Yup, I see people do that, I just never found the need for it. I stick a hopper on top of the crucible, and some fluiducts (to get some distance from the lava) and a portable tank to refill my bottles. I use 2 trees and have enough to top off the hopper and have enough leaves left over for dirt production.
Oh, one more good tip (I think): The first few days don't try to kill all the creepers, just jump over the wall and walk 130 blocks in any one direction so that they despawn. This also helps finding cities for later exploration.
i kill enough for the quest and then just leave the rest in the pit trap. they are to dangerous to mess with.
Agreed; at that point your weapons suck too much to kill them quickly (unless there's only a few for some reason) Its a better use of your time to walk away and back.
Actually a bone frying pan 2-hits creepers and knocks them out of trigger range. Also great on spiders. That said, why kill creepers at all when you can drop 2 dust on their heads and suffocate the lot of them?
Do the corners of your trench like this:

also the pan has the same damage as the hatchet in my test and when you level it it gains more knock back then i have seen on most weapon. Last one i tried go 4 knock back 1 defualt and then 3 from levels. that being said most mourning i have like 20 creepers.
A servo into the itemduct, set it to pull out 32 items at once from the chest. A couple of speed upgrades into the IO interface. I'm using a 4x4 chamber and can make a full stack of transistors and capacitors before the air in the chamber gets low. (For whatever reason it starts eating items, if I set the stack size to 64.)
The air pressure is also automated. The signal from the pressure gauge goes into a PRC, there it is compared against "Less Than" 9 (=4.5 bar). As long as the pressure is lower, it sends a redstone signal to an energy cell. The energy cell supplies kinetic compressors with powers. (Only 100RF for three of them together, any higher and it always blew up the pressure tubes.)
Bone mealing a stack of seed takes only 2-3 minutes, so far Pneumaticraft was really painless.
i have to say unlike the other mobs there is no reason to kill the creepers if you have them contained. you get gunpowder from sieving.
