None of my tools seem to aid me, and a quarry seems inconvenient. is a turtle the best way to collect the puffy wonderblocks?

Quickly? Nukes would be the fastest, you didn't say anything about how messy it could get.

I don't think a nuke could hurt anything if it's in the clouds, unless, of course, you have a skyscraper nearby. And if you do, I recommend leaving the clouds because it would look awesome.

Mining Laser should wreck that.

I was just terraforming a huge chunk of cloud w/ a mining laser to prepare for my future AE cloud computing center an hour ago.

Inspired by AlgorithmX2's QuantumNetworkingSystem.

Basically I'm setting up a wireless room and my database mainframe on a cloud

Man, I was about to Google, FTB Clouds.

F*** all of you. =(

Imagine a cloud block though. Semi-transparent to dark opaque depending on the humidity conditions. It could go along with Bees and act as a visual detector for changing humidities...

But you'd have to account for pressure some how. So then you could include the pressure API from liquiducts to determine the pressure of the liquid in your liquiducts using clouds without having a multi-meter.

You could also use the clouds as a semi-conductor to determine the current flowing through a piece of wire (V = IR, if you know the resistance of the semi-conductor cloud and the voltage, you can determine current.)


SO MANY APPLICATIONS SOMEONE GET ON THIS IT'S GOLD.

Or the off chance the nuke accidentally falls off of the cloud and lands on someone's base.
