Smelt cobble>stone, get a chiesel file and turn stone into chieseled stone. Thats is 1 terra+1 ordo. Its the best thing apart mass producing tc plants, whatever thename
This is my go-to as well although I understand some peeps favor the centrifuge (Vitreus I believe, which contains ordo and terra and is easily acquired from glass)
Just 2c: in 5.09, I find that the hardest part is to find enough of god damn sulfur. So my first machine of choice is Centrifuge, which gives me ability to get some of Sulfur as byproduct of Pyrite, or as a main product of macerating Netherrack.
I build a setup that either can use red granite cobblestone or crafting tables to create the needed ordo for steel production.
Red granite cobblestone contains 1 fabrico 1 instrumentum and 1 ordo. centrifuging fabrico yields instrumentum and humanus, centrifuging instrumentum yields humanus and ordo.
so you get 1.75 ordo per red granite cobble.
Crafting tables yield 4 fabrico, so you can use both materials in the same setup to get your needed ordo
Red granite needs a level 3 pickaxe though, so you need to use a thaumium pickaxe to farm it.
on a side node: you need Motus, Spiritus and Humanus to create Golems, you can make Motus and spiritus out of Humanus, so it's pretty easy to get the nice early golem automation
ok, I have now tried the farming station to shear sheep and it just does not work. Does this actually work or were you thinking of something else?
I did not tried that, but I saw that you can put shears into it. So i just thought it would work... Now i am reading about it, and it looks like it shears only tree leaves
Sorry about misinformation.
bummer. but that would explain why I never thought to try it, but def don't stop thinking outside the box...I did not tried that, but I saw that you can put shears into it. So i just thought it would work... Now i am reading about it, and it looks like it shears only tree leaves
That's where the fun starts... Ok, so other than the lag inducing dynamism tablet, how would you go about sheering sheep then? We've updated the pack with dev branch on the server and with the new recipe for black carpet for the lv cables, this has become a thorn in our side doing it manually, even with empowered dark shears. Is farming cotton the only viable solution then, or mob farm? i.e. no shearing of sheep?
PcCraft Drone or OC Drone should be really able to do it.bummer. but that would explain why I never thought to try it, but def don't stop thinking outside the box...

Edit #1: First of all, what kind of energy hatch do you use?
Secondly: Are you using multiple (edit #2)energy hatch on your EBF? (If yes, move on to next question)
Do you input power to those multiple hatches via cable or directly from a machine (no wire inbetween)?

Did you read? I can smelt aluminum = MV tier
I got answered at IC2 forum. For some reason, when oxygen is present in the hatch, it wont smelt ore+oxygen. It means that you either do liquid based receies or dry recepies at ebf at a time. You cant smelt, say, wrought iron > steel, next iron ore + caco3 and wrought iron after that as the EBF will get stuck with oxygen, if there is more then 0 inside
Btw, can someone explain to me the "fuel efficiency" concept from gregtech?
My guess is that:
To produce X mass of fuel, you need Y energy
By supplying X mass of fuel to machine Z with 95% efficiency, you get back only 95% of Y.
Am I right?

Each fuel has a basic Fuel Value, which you can find in the "Recipes" config file.
For example Ethanol, which is listed as 128 in the config, meaning 1 bucket (would be 1 item in the case of solid fuels) would give 128,000 EU. The Fuel Efficiency is a modifier, for example the Basic Diesel Generator has a fuel efficiency of 90%, so you do 90% of 128,000 to get the actual energy output.
