Thanks to your input on multiplayer. While I'm not directly interested in changing configs/OP, the better performance and overall better controls are very attractive, I'm going to find a tutorial on server hosting and give it a try
Just try it out on your machine so you can get a feel for it. It's super simple too, thanks to the awesome people at Forge
1. Download a Forge installer
2. Run it, select "install server"
3. Point it at an empty directory
4. Let it work
5. Go to that directory, start the server once, let it set up, and shut it down again with the command "stop"
6. Insert mods and configs and delete the world folder (so you can get a fresh one with all the added mod worldgen)
7. Start it again
8. Start your client (with the same Forge version, mod selection and configs, obviously)
9. Direct connect to "127.0.0.1" or "localhost" (they mean the same thing)
10. You are now playing on your own local server!

Thanks again, I got it working already! Before you did say that, though, I actually went in ftb launcher and clicked "download server" and I'm using this server instead, is there a considerable difference from doing the forge installer?
I guess I was thinking like some sort of high-tech "stasis chamber" or something that might give you some buffs or something. Or maybe less exp loss when you die. Or maybe even just a "redstone clock bed" that has settings for how long to sleep or until when, etc.
New question - how many magmatic engines can a liquid tesseract supply? What about geothermal generators? And is a good idea to have a railcraft tank receiving the lava, acting as a buffer to collect lava? Or do most folks just pump directly to their engines?

What happened to Obsidian BR? I thought IC2 set it down to sixty, but on my Unleashed world it acts like it does in Vanilla Minecraft. Am I maybe just too dim to find a config that is defaulted to false, or is there a mod messing with it?
No, I was testing using the mining laser. All three of reinforced concrete, reinforced stone and obsidian resist the explosive mode (which IIRC has the blast strength of TNT?) but are penetrated to various degrees by the long-range shot: at least four blocks for the concrete, two for reinforced stone and no penetration at all when fired at obsidian blocks.
NE: of course if that is based on the mining speed value rather than the blast resistance of the block this means that there are now two completely different variables to keep track of for defensive materials.

I think obsidian has a specific resistance to the laser that is discrete from blast resistance and mining speed.
Simple question: How do you make Hardened Ice? I can make regular ice...but cannot figure out if it's possible to change it to hardened afterwards (got SOME hardened off the polar shelf near my base, but it's not enough for the build I have in mind.) Any help is appreciated!
