Bosses...too?
So, an automatic Hydra spawner/killer? I'd like to see someone make one of those.

The grinder won't kill them but I'd imagine you could rig "something" up. For the record the grinder won't kill iron golems either T_T

Yea, they should make it so that bosses and stuff are more expensive mob essence-wise. How about vanilla bosses? Like the Enderdragon and wither?

Ooh, best TF feature... difficult one. I haven't found a hydra yet, or a mystic grove, so I can't really say yet. So far, I'd say Hollow Hills, those things are scary. And my lag has become so bad recently that I think I'll steer clear of them from now on. Maybe I should destroy my main base chunkloader and see if that helps. Most useful so far is the Uncrafting Table.

Go into creative and put a chunkloader in each of the 5 dimensions(Myst world, Nether, End, Overworld, TF) then restart. See if that helps.

Why would putting more chunkloaders help with lag? I'd think that would make the lag worse, not better.

It's an issue with memory leaking from one of the worlds and putting a chunkloader in each prevents that by always keeping them loaded rather than trying to load them.

Oh, didn't know that. Cool. Can it be any chunkloader, like the spot loader that only loads 1 chunk?

Yes. Any chunkloader should work. I would suggest doing it creatively though for simplicity since you'll need to go to the end.

Thaumcraft Stone should work, as should MFFS. If I can trap it under some bedrock, that could work too.

The lag you're getting is probably from the trees in TF. Huge amounts of leaves do cause lag (especially if you're using fancy graphics setting) and I do get memory leaks there where all the textures go funny colours and I have to restart the client.

As for the coolest TF feature, for me it has to be the Reappearing Blocks. These things are probably the best block in FTB for coolness.

Btw, whilst on the topic of TF, can anyone tell me what tool you use to collect the hedge from the hedge mazes? I remember on our last FTB world (using the Beta A pack, not the DW20 pack that we're using now), I was able to collect the maze hedge blocks using some tool (possibly the mining laser) but I've tried that and other tools and I can't get any hedge drops now. I am 100% sure I had them before as I made a garden hedge with them round my base and everyone wanted to know what they were, but I can't seem to "mine" them now. :confused:

This probably is not what you are looking for, but it may work - a turtle with a shear upgrade and you just tell it to dig the blocks. Since they are leaves it "should" collect them. Not sure though.

I thought the problem had gone away last night. I made a Magic Map and found a large hollow hill, which I slapped a Filler on to slice the top off (completely draining two RECs in the process). I was clearing out the revealed loot and killing off the occasional ghost, when suddenly the problem came back. The game would pause for about a minute, and then I'd get about three seconds of normal activity followed by another pause. I stumbled over to linkbook back home and logged out since it was late anyway.
