Awesome, can't wait to watch when I get home. But alas, off to work I go.
Ditto - luckily I'm already halfway through my work day!

I also got caught out in a hail and rain shower on my lunchtime walk so, you know, swings and roundabouts.

Episode 60 of my Age of Engineering Series! Today we get one step further in our quest to 5x ore processing - but the bees are back to scupper our plans! god damn you bees!

Accursed creatures! :D I do hate that bee breeding is a necessary thing, without the genetic manipulation and engineering provided by Gendusty, in a pack called Age of Engineering!

I know, its just a bit of a bar steward. I think you also need a load of scented panelling or something or other that needs royal jelly and possibly pollen. With the way there's so much luck involved, bee breeding seems more of a punishment than a fun task.

I'm pretty sure you can use the atomic multipliers on scented paneling, so I'm not doing bees on any grand scale - although I do have a lot of both types now so could setup a planet sized bee farm ;)

Getting 4096 scented paneling with atomic multipliers could be quite troublesome though. Direwolf just decided to dupe crates with the required resources in the end, I think.

Spending a bit of it to make the Alveary is worth it, since they then produce products much, much faster.

What's an Atomic Multiplier?

It's Calculators approach for a "dupe stuff machine". It requires a stupid amount of power (1B RF, I think), but it gives you four items for every item you put in, netting you three of that item. It does have some stuff blacklisted though.

I find the fact that it has nether stars blacklisted (at least by default) a bit odd, because by the time you're capable of feeding it billions of RF, and already killed a wither once, you're already pretty advanced! I don't think its too much to expect it to let you off having to do it repeatedly, but apparently not...

I suspect it's a config option.
Yes, there's basically a blacklist config file (the catchily named "AtomicMultiplier-BlackList.cfg") which is where I actually found that out in the first place. I somehow don't think I could persuade the guy running our server to change it though :p
