[SatanicSanta]

Creator is xycraft is Soaryn. Why don't you like xycraft santa?

I can do everything it does with other mods, I hate the textures, and the ores spawn way too frequently, so frequently that I need to have an entire Xychorium/Quartz Diamond chest once I get Quarries running.
The only part of it I like is the corncobs and the popcorn.
Fabricator = auto crafting
Multitanks = Railcraft tanks, or BC tanks
Xychorium soil = dirt

The mod just seems kinda pointless.

1) Fabricator does cool stuff, someone remind me what it does again...
2) Multitanks are cheaper and more variable in size and shape.
3) Xysoil is better than growing stuff than dirt is.

1) Fabricator is an automatic crafting table.
2) I don't care about expense, or size, I just need something to store liquids. Also those puzzle pieces are annoying. In fact, on the server for my modpack I'm living with the other person who helped build the pack and is running the server, we just built 50 Heat Generators, and 2 Elite Factories out of boredom. Expense shouldn't be in issue in a sandbox game.
3) How?

 

[ApSciLiara]

3) How?

Stuff planted on them grows quicker. And you don't need water around to keep the spaces hydrated.

1)But i does something else cool but I forgot...
2) Fair enough, each to their own
3) Crops grow faster on them.

Stuff planted on them grows quicker. And you don't need water around to keep the spaces hydrated.

Watering cans can make things grow instantly, also, water can allow for some very interesting water features in a home. It also makes the farm area seem more farmlike. Or, you can run water underground.

 

[ApSciLiara]

Watering cans can make things grow instantly

No, they can't. They make stuff grow quicker, yes, but not instantly. And it's impossible to automate.

 

[SatanicSanta]

No, they can't. They make stuff grow quicker, yes, but not instantly. And it's impossible to automate.

If you spam a plant its pretty much instant, and you could probably use turtles to automate it.

But this is adds even more speed.

 

[KingTriaxx]

I'm not sure if that's a bug. Sounds like a mis-programmed PRC. I've got one set up with a vanilla lever, which is then hooked up to the smeltery. And had another hooked to a pair of electrical engines set to provide power to my TE machines, which was nothing more than a lever. Are you sure it's not the vanilla redstone strength mechanic?

I don't care what anyone says about your base, lord Buzzington is frigging amazing!

The house and Lord Buzzington are my favorite parts. The house just looks awesome, and Lord Buzzington is a badass.

I quite enjoy Lord Buzzington. What I don't enjoy, however, is the Force Bricks. Goddess, they're so ugly. Maybe use ExtraUtilities coloured bricks instead? Also, the Laser Drill gets a power discount the higher up you go, capping out at something like 90% normal power when you get 128 blocks up.

Yeah i agree with you there the force bricks are not pretty, i have never really liked them i have just been to lazy to switch them out, maybe later i might just quickly do some recolours and stick them in the sphax TP file because they are ugly!
And thanks for the tip on the laser drill.

Uh, watch Ako mutch?

Yep, he inspired Lord Buzzington.
Ako is one of my favourites on the youtubes.

EDIT: Dartcraft bricks be gone!

Spoiler

I don't really like the sandstone because it has not got the kick i was looking for, not enough colour.

 

[KingTriaxx]

Try Tinker's Gold Bricks. Gold ingot plus chisel in the crafting grid. Those might work better.

He uses Sphax, so metal blocks look really weird, especially if they were with the rest of the blocks in Lord Buzzington.

Yeah i love the TiC chisel but the gold bricks don't go with the rest because they have a brick pattern rather than the paved pattern i am going for on Lord Buzzington
