Actually, normal mob spawning requires you to be 24 blocks away before they will start spawning. And no, Cursed Earth will always spawn mobs, regardless of player distance.

While you can totally exhaust an Aura Node of its store of Vis (i.e. it would look like "A: 0/500" while wearing Goggles of Revealing), I believe this is always temporary/curable. Other than two nodes merging into one, I'm not aware of any mechanic by which a node can be completely destroyed. I think the closest you can get to "destroying" a node is to fully drain a node that's (a) too far away from other nodes to share Vis, and (b) doesn't have any Infused Ore nearby to recharge itself. (This happens with some frequency in the Nether, where there is no infused ore, and aura nodes tend to be more separated.) But even then, Crystal Clusters, Crystal Capacitors and Rejuvenating Bees can restore the node to its full strength, at the cost of Flux.
I like thisIf you run NEI searches on "chest" or "boots" and the like, you'll find the ones you're missing. Off the top of my head, there's Invar Armor, Composite Armor, that orange hazard/hazmat suit from IC2 (the boots for it are the Rubber Boots, fyi). There's a set of Mud Armor from Biomes o' Plenty, and 3-4 more Twilight Forest armors: Ironwood, Nagascale and Fiery, I believe (though Nagascale only has two pieces to the set), plus the still-WIP "Knightsmetal" (or something like that) Armor. And there are two types of Thaumcraft armor -- the Thaumic Armor, and the Thaumaturgist Robes. I play DW20, so I don't have Dartcraft, but I suspect there's some absurdly overpowered armor in there, too *troll-ducks*.
Oh crap....what have I gotten myself into? I already have the 120 sets of leather and gold and almsot done with chainmail.... /cry
On a different note, is there a list somewhere of all the armour in terms of "effectiveness" or strength? Such as Leather -> Gold -> Iron -> Diamond for vanilla stuff, but for FTB mods?
Bah...Guess it's transportation via cables then. Unless...maybe I could do an enderchest/item tesseract "request" method somehow..
Question, does anyone know what happens with a Forestry multifarm when you have two crop sections, one planted with barley and one with wheat? Does it replant with barley and wheat specifically or does it just indiscriminately use what seeds it can get?
Depends on how you have it managed. If you have it set to "automatic" then it will only plant what is set in the circuit board. If you set it to "Managed" and put the Wheat electron tube (I think it's iron, but I don't remember) in one side and the Barley, if there is one, in the other and plant the items yourself, then it should be fine.
If it works with barley, then it will keep them separate. I don't know if it does, though. Golems can't harvest barley for instance. DW20 mentioned "IPlantable" in the latest FC2 SMP, so maybe barley isn't set up correctly for cross-mod interaction.
The Advanced JetPack is very good for finding other enderoids, and yes, Ender Hives spawn on them.
Natura barely works cross-mod wise.
Seriously, the sticks don't work with TiC's recipes.
Well, I tested it, setting up a multifarm with 4 bronze electron tubes in manual mode, and then planting it with wheat, barley, and cotton. The multifarm harvested everything successfully, but would tend to replant with wheat seeds. If I took away all of the wheat seeds, it replanted with barley, and if I took away all the wheat and barley seeds, it replanted with cotton,
This happened to me in the Nether in Ultimate. It'll recharge slowly, it's never permanently gone.
Whats the difference anyway? They both make the same food and same amount too.
You guys misunderstand how multifarms work.
The key thing to look out for is whether your farm is "managed" or "manual". You can have crop and vegetable farms in both modes.
A "managed" (automatic) farm will lay down soil, plant seeds from the first slot in its seed inventory that holds any valid seed, wait for plants to grow, harvest them and plant something new in that slot, again from the first slot in its seed inventory that holds any valid seed.
A "manual" farm, on the other hand, does not lay down soil and does not plant anything. It expects the player to do that. However, once something the player planted has grown, the farm will harvest it and then replant that exact thing in that exact location, provided it has a matching seed anywhere in its seed inventory.
So for a farm that keeps multiple plant types, you want a "manual" farm. If barley is harvestable by the multifarm at all, it probably needs a crop farm (bronze tube), but if it doesn't work, try testing with a vegetable farm (iron tube). Harvestcraft has some confusion as to what of its many dozen plants can be harvested by what farm type, for example; maybe Natura falls into the same trap.
After configuring your circuit board, manually place your dirt and irrigation water, hoe the dirt into farmland, and plant whatever crops you wish in whatever pattern you wish. Then make sure the multifarm has a few seeds of each crop type in its seed inventory (yes, this does limit you to at most six different crops on one multifarm, but you will probably struggle to reach it unless you run Harvestcraft). After that, you can leave it alone and, as long as the crop is actually harvestable, it will happily work all the different crop types you gave it in exactly the ratio you pre-planted.
I understand this. However, barley, wheat, and cotton are all 'crop' type plants, and apparently due to the poor compatability of Natura, the multifarm is unable to distinguish between them and replants indiscriminately with seeds of either type if they're all in the same farm.
If you aren't using a Fertilizer, then I think pumpkins planted on IC2 crop sticks are best. I don't think the Fertilizer works on them though, so if you are using one, then probably barley is better, I'm not sure. Pumpkins on crop sticks also have the advantage that you don't need a Planter.
