I haven't made a leafblower yet in this world (I had one in AC but couldn't figure out how it worked). But I did just install a magnet and mob repeller. Oh and I don't have a thermal generator yet but jumping in lava for power sounds fun if you do it right.
Also I don't have energy cubes. I do have a lot of fully charged redstone energy cells though. Like, 40. Maybe I need a better way of storing MJ.


And yes Liara this does mean I made us a Tinker Table!

so I just found out how much I love the rail gun + power armor someone on our server wanted to test his out on a player so I said sure so we met at spawn shot him in his iron armor took 8 hearts he shoots me half a heart. Man I am happy with the diamond armor upgrade. Also before anyone rages at me it was consensual that we do this. all I need now is some more enderpearls and Iron and it will fly.:D:D:p

Yeah I'm a walking powerplant myself, it's hilarious.

Oh, dumb trick for ya. Turns out your mps WILL recharge your electric modifier tinker tools. The problem is, that the power tool drains those first for some reason. It's funny to see the durability on your pick go down when you use the railgun. An oddity that offsets this is that there's no decrease of speed or anything when they're empty, nor will they break. Essentially, as it is, the electric modifier on tinker tools is pretty much indestructibility, pure and simple.

Although more of a tinker tools dumb trick, the interaction is still interesting.

Oh also, dumb modular powersuit... fail. The axe upgrade on our server doesn't work on BoP or MFR trees. Or mfr+bop fail, pick which you like more.

This is probably a bug though, at the end of the day.

Oh also, Marc DoctorOr was (as per usual) 100% right.

Smelting modifier + fortune = 2,5 ignots per ore on average.

Not only am I walking power plant, I'm an ore processing factory as well.

OH OH OH, one last thing, pigmen don't attack ya when you smelt nether ores this way.

Even better than DartCraft's maximum. But we have like at least 3 ways to do better than 2.5x yield. It's just super-convenient.

Does he charge by the hour or day? Also, does he have time and version warp powers? I need him in 1.4.7.

Funny, I've just become an ore smelting factory also. It's awesome! And it works on vinteum and osmium too :D
I think the reason tinker tool batteries get drained by MPS is because it now uses batteries in your inventory and those count. But really it should leave those until last :p

Honestly, the more I use my saw blade launcher, the more I love it. It isn't OP by any means, certainly not compared to the plasma cannon or the rail gun, but I likes me some spammable ranged weapon with a decent knockback. It's not perfect, of course, it has a tendency to shoot past the target when they're up in your face, but I would easily consider it a solid replacement for the bow, even if it is less powerful and cannot be enchanted.

If you fully deck out a powertool, with max overclocking and everything, am I right in assuming you'd never need another tool again?

You can enchant the power tool with books. Mine currently has fortune on it.

Is it still the case in the latest 1.5 versions?

I know that the anvil +Book exploit was fixed in some mods, so I thought it might have been solved for every other mods too (like, inside forge or some free code piece).

Neah, and if you have some such tools left over, then they disenchant themselves violently when you equip them.
