2 words: Lead nuggets. but it destroys terrain as well.[DOUBLEPOST=1408641026][/DOUBLEPOST]
The tico bow is nice in that not only can you enchant the bow, but also the arrows. Tho, that's curious. how do you level up the arrows here? Yeah, that probably won't work.
In the videos you're watching, the folks are probably moving pretty fast, so you likely didn't notice it.
Have finally reached the point I was at when my last game was brutally ended via ghast. Day 47 smeltery has been crafted via stones again, and now have soybeans plentiful enough to start planning regular meals around ... Guess who's having cheeseburgers tonight!
After preparing a few meals I'll build my auto smeltery fuel system...terrain smasher to crucible to smeltery and overflow to open block storage.
My current favorite and most valuable (to me) arrangement is my water supply station. Transposer powered by energy cell charged by 2 survival gens. Input bottom and side, output top and opposite side. Left side chest to hopper feed in enpty bottles, leaves and saplings , water out top to the top of open block tank 3 high. Out right side to chest for saps, sticks, and filled water bottles. Bottom input water from the bottom of the open block tank. Just a push of a button to fill water bottles after filling camel packs and walk away, cut trees, drop leaves make sure it's set to drain, walk away. Open block tanks are great for keep an eye on reserves from a distance.

You might want to automate dirt production. Not only for water bottles but you'll need dirt to expand your farms, etc... I don't know why, but I feel it works better than the other methods since you don't have to supply it any power, but I've never done the math for figuring out how much charcoal to convert dirty water bottles vs same charcoal in furnace generator to power transposer. I usually ignore the transposer after the quest and do crucible for straight water into a tank or two, and dirt production. I use the dirt production solely for water and just keep a stock of 30 or so water bottles and empty bottles, and eventually use SFM to automate that. At some point, after sieving all the resources is setup, you'll be swimming in coal from gravel, so yeah, it becomes pretty easy at some point. Once you get an MFR harvester/planter/fertilizer combo setup, water will never be a thing you worry about and AA is like *meh* ....
Lava as furnace fuel?...somehow I'd forgotten exactly this.don't forget, cobble to lava to bucket to furnace. My second transposer keeps furnaces fueled that way at all times. I never worry about cooking one thing and wasting a pc of fuel since lava is so much easier to supply.
I'm aware of the mechanic friend, I'm saying I'd forgotten it.
beyond that transposers will fill the bucket for you to automate the fueling proccess... rather handy for converting barrels of cobble into barrels of stone.
good point. I should have realized that.[DOUBLEPOST=1408654725][/DOUBLEPOST]Lol I usually only drop 2 or 3 stacks of leaves for water, the rest go in another chest that fills barrels to compost and piped again to my dirt storage chest. I use the transposer because it really cuts my involvement time down. As far as efficiency, 2 more leaves vs dirt, but a single charcoal lasts 22 minutes in a generator leaving plenty of wood for other uses....don't forget, cobble to lava to bucket to furnace. My second transposer keeps furnaces fueled that way at all times. I never worry about cooking one thing and wasting a pc of fuel since lava is so much easier to supply.
One thing I wish tho is that the fluid transposers actually worked with all liquid storage. I have had alot of issues using them with drums in the past. And they won't (iirc) partially fill things ... wait. I'm thinking of the me fluid interface aren't I. damn you skun. you destroyed my memory... damn you skun.
there isn't much.... yet. enviromine is working on some but I have not seen anything like an eta. standing in water can help, but it doesn't do much for proximity to lava. My suggestion is to locate the heavy heat generators outside your immediate living spaces.
