Not sure. I never do TF because all i can ever seem to find are those stupid little houses. The blocks are called Reappearing block and Vanishing block. There's an invert of the Vanishing block. You right click them and the make any other vanishing block disappear for a short amount of time

The reapearing and vanishing blocks are all found around the Dark Towers in the Twilight Forest. They make some pretty awsome doors.

I would like to petition again for the ability to use portable holes in deployers (or some TC3 contrived alternative) to make sections of wall vanish on command. Would just be awesome.

To the problem at hand, the solutions suggested would be awesome, but somewhat resource consuming. You could get really annoying, and make the base encased in warded blocks, with a portal spawner in a hidden area some way off (or a long way off, for trolling). Possibly even an IC2 teleporter network (with a single destination pad in the house).

Or you could be boring and just use a door.

Effectiveness means little. I try to lean more towards what looks better.

He has already shot down the logical choice. Let him come up with a lava-teleportation door system to satisfy his vanity. Which reminds me, my vanity requires a lava-teleportation door, as well!

Two fillers. One set to clear
One set to build.

Switch switches between powering one or the other.
:)

Would it work? Hell if I know. Sounds cool though. :) I wonder if one filler can use another fillers orange and black construction lines. :)

A wall of lava followed by a wall of water? You'd run through the lava and douse yourself in the water before you die. Its kinda vanilla though. You could use the new xycraft blocks at the bottom to keep the water and lava from running through everything.

My old base used the disappearing blocks from the Dark towers and I really liked that, but the colors clashed with the rest of my base which was obsidian so it always looked out of place. It also worked great for temporary floors with hidden stairs underneath[DOUBLEPOST=1363624245][/DOUBLEPOST]

I think you'd need to replace the markers each time, wouldn't you?

Naa, the markers go pop the moment you put the filler down. I wanna test it out tonight to see what happens if you place another filler at the other corner though. Sure would be cool if it worked. Would give me a door that automatically rebuilds itself if someone tried to burrow into it, and breaks apart fast too. Not a big deal, would give me something to do with all the extra cobble I get. :)

If not you could have one filler set to clear the door area. Then have a secound filler over the door area so their boxes do nto overlap.

Then just use sand it till fall into palce and can be cleared again by the frist filler.
