Let's play Modded MC!(1.7.10)

What dimentions are you using for your reactor?

What dimentions are you using for your reactor?

It is a 9x9x5 with nine rods.

Also, if anybody notices any chat in my chat, that's because I added the IRC mod that is in TPPI and it's config. Was getting a bit lonely.

Looks good
What power multiplier are you using for your big reactors? 17k rf/t seems like a lot, i have a similar, 9x9x7 setup, and it peaks at 2k rf/t (tech world 2)

My multiplier is 1.22. Usually I set it to 3, but I want a reason to make the reactorcraft reactors.

 

[iNd3x]

then how are you getting 17000 rf/t from that reactor?

 

[Wagon153]

Heat has a big part of it. Your reactor could be overheated, thus resulting in a loss of power and efficiency. Also, are you using the same coolants as mine, and in the same locations?

Here's another update!

Spoiler: Jetpack

This is the highest tier jetpack from Simply Jetpacks. The higher tier jetpacks can allow for near creative flight when in hover mode.

Spoiler: Reactor regulation

This is a programmable rednet controller from MFR. Quite a complicated block, but what I'm using it for is super simple. (P.S. Props to PurpleMentat for showing how to do this in a video.) This thing is basically raising/lowering the control rods of the reactor depending on how much power I'm using, thus decreasing the amount of fuel I'm using. (Note: The PRC has to be below the port, with a cable connecting it to the port. Otherwise, it will not work properly.)

Spoiler: The settings of the PRC

Spoiler: How the rednet port of the reactor is set

Spoiler: The ME Controller

This is an essential part of any AE network. This block is pretty much the brain of the network, and you can also supply the network power through it(You can also use a power relay)using Rotary Craft shaft power, RF, MJ, EU, or Universal Electricity. Your choice! (Note: You CAN NOT have more then one controller per network, otherwise the network will not work)

Spoiler: The ME Drive

This block is where you put your storage drives. Each one can hold 10 drives. Each drive can store up to 63 types, but the amount of each item depends on the tier of the drive(A 16k is bigger then a 4k for example).

Spoiler: The ME Crafting terminal

This block allows you to access your network as well as providing a handy crafting grid that will pull straight out of the network the items for whatever you are crafting.

Spoiler: The GUI of the crafting terminal

(Ignore the Fluid Storage text)

Spoiler: Cart assembler

This block allows you to craft up carts from Steves Carts. (Note: The carts can take hours of IRL time to assemble)
It can be given upgrades to increase fuel efficiency, decrease assembly time, etc etc.

Steve's cart! those are fun

Way more fun then MFR. Although, I had a strange bug with it turning rubber trees into oak trees...

 

[iNd3x]

Sry pal, i clearly, derped didn't look good enough on the picture
Not the same setup, albeit pretty close to each other

 

[Wagon153]

Glad that's cleared up.

 

[Wagon153]

Tiny update.
I was going to do Mariculture ore processing, but it turns out it isn't really worth doing, considering fuel costs and what it takes to get it going. So instead, I'm gonna start getting heavily into Rotary Craft and see if I can get an extractor up and running.
I WILL be doing Mariculture Fish Breeding, as it seems quite interesting.

YAAAAY RoC!
even if it will be so dam slow before you get tungsten xd

I've already prepped some jetfuel, so I'll either be using a microturbine or a gas turbine, and I won't be running all stages at once.

gas turbine require tungsten (unless you didn't update to v21 (I think) yet ) so it's pass extractor D: and requires so much time to get

Yeah I saw that after I posted that. I'm gonna use Electricraft to bypass that. (Microturbine feeding into a graphene battery). Was not cheap at all, but I had the diamonds after a giant enderquarry in the Deep Dark.

You must be crazy to have even considered the Mariculture method...

Shameless self demotion

 

[Wagon153]

Well, I wanted to try something new.

 

[Wagon153]

Spoiler: Enderthermic pump

This is Extra utilities's pump. You place it right above the lava and supply it power and it'll suck up the lava, replacing source blocks with stone.

Spoiler: Activated division sigil

I had just finished activating this when this was taken. (To learn how to activate it, shift right click on an enchantment table)

Spoiler: Portal to the deep dark

This is how you get to the deep dark. You'll want to be very prepared for it, as in good armor and lots of torches. It's the equivalent to a dense ores age, but very dark and the mobs are twice as powerful as in the overworld. Also, stay in the dark for too long and you'll start taking damage that ignores armor.

Spoiler: Compressor

I needed diamonds, so I made this! Using IC2 and a stack of coal, you can make diamonds.

Spoiler: Microturbine

How I'll be powering my Extractor(No it's not how you thing I'm going to do it).

Spoiler: Graphene battery

This needed 2 stacks of diamonds, but can hold a whopping amount of power. I'll be using this to actually power my extractor. The microturbine is just feeding into it.

Spoiler: Filling station

You need this to fill super conductor wire from electricraft with coolant.

Spoiler: Refrigeration unit

This is how you make the coolant for the super conductor wires. You need ice and at the very least a gasoline engine with a 16:1 gearbox on it.[DOUBLEPOST=1405102527][/DOUBLEPOST]To add onto this. I will be needing the extractor anyway to obtain tungsten to make the blades of a reactorcraft turbine.
