Not sure I'll be including it. The guy who does the tech path doesn't think it's necessary, and Bluedog, the original creator, had said no before. Sorry.

Don't really need to go that far. Early game you don't need a full system. I suggested earlier to enable to logistical pipes in mekanism for the sorter to do the sorter and enhanced inventories mod for the crafting aspects/storage
For the moment, I'm not going to be adding Ender IO. We already have Mekanism and Thermal Expansion, and we don't need a third full tech mod.
It's always a matter of choice. No one mod that I can think of (lol except maybe EIO) has the best X in category Y of all tech mods. For example, I avoid mekanism cables like the plague cause of lag. I avoid thermal dynamics for same reason (cept the cryoducts), in addition been bit by a ton of bugs from TD. Mekanism has factories that kick the crap out of EIO's sag mill/alloy smelter as far as speed goes, but early game, EIO machines are very powerful since you don't need anything but power conduits to manage them. TE Resonant machines with augments are extremely fast and useful, and again, their augments are tiered to get the better capabilities.
The inventory panel is already gated since you need to use nutrient distillation to run the thing, so you have to have some infrastructure in place to use it. The conduits are the same; each of the better conduits is gated through something more difficult to make in all cases that have tiers of cables.
Whenever I play a map that has all three of those mods, I utilize all of those mods for different purposes early/mid/late game to great affect. They actually each help each other overcome any deficiencies that one mod has and allows you to think up very interesting builds with enough things to help you make better decisions.
Just my 2 cents.
Okay, quick question for you guys: Mind if I replace Ars Magica with something? There would be a few reasons for this:
- It clutters up world gen with ores that not even its respective path uses (I'm sure you've gotten a ton of Blue Topaz cluttering up your quarry). The config doesn't have an option to turn these off, either; I had a plan to turn Electrotine into Vinteum but the mod dev of AM2 just didn't think to put configs in there.
- While it was originally going to be a combat-based incentive mod, now that Draconic is in the pack none of those are needed.
- I'm pretty sure most of you haven't gotten that far into the evil path anyway.
Ohh, nice version number.
I'm guessing I'll have to make a couple suggestions in the discord channel

Good to know. I didn't know it was needed. It is not, however, supposed to work with AgriCraft, just as a heads up.
MFR Compat will happen. Agricraft won't because the plan was to create each seed individually.
