The drills produce pollution even when they are "off" and without fuel

Yes, that's right.

I'm limited to how much integration I can do between mods regarding the pollution. Best option if you have drills you are not going to use for a while is to break one of the blocks so the drill deforms.

I'm having troubles making the laboratory work. It starts and when it's about at 10-15% it stops. I can't understand why; it's my fault or it's a bug?

If using version 0.86 (the latest), you need 2 coal generators wired to to the Lab using IE LV wires, connectors and relays. All the MM machines require a minimum RF/t to craft. If they do not receive enough power, they will keep eating the power but not do any crafting progress.

I tryied as you said. it still blocks at 20-25%. I don't know what else to do...

Can you provide a screenshot of your setup?

 

[cimix2000]

The site doesn't let me upload the screenshot... Even if it's only 2Mb... As more the game has started lagging and crashing... i think i ll have to leave this pack... T-T

 

[cimix2000]

Is there an email where i can contact you directly? So i can show you by a video too. Now it went up to 70%. But when it stops it makes the science pack disappear. I'm in crysis...

I solved the lab problem using 5 coal generators. Now, I was looking for a place to set up a "Base" but (in my opinion) there are too much of that alien structures to have some more free place to build a big base. So I think that it would be nice to make that spawn less often.
If possible, a mod like the ore miner could help player to farm faster a specific type of block. For example i love to have a basalt and marble house, so oreminer would help mining those 2 blocks. As more, the tree mod is awesome.

There's about a 16 chunk radius on spawn that's free of the aliens. The idea is that they are an extra challenge to your expansion.
5 coal generators sounds like version 0.85. Latest version 0.86b only 2 are required.

So alien's spawners should spawn with a distance of 16 chucks one form the other? I can't find neither a 4 chunck free area...
And i'm actually playing with 0.86b, so i'll try again with only 2 generators and i'll let you know

 

[Golrith]

Should be only 80rf/t for the red science.

No, 16 chunk clear radius from spawn. Then the various alien stuff spawns in (spires, mounds, chorus plants)

How close do you think you are to a 1.0 release? I am interested in this for my next pack, but I am wondering if I should wait until the 1.0 comes around?

TBH, not sure. I'm in effect in the final stretch for the end game implentation, but what's available already provides a lot of gameplay content.

I've got to release a small update soon, a few derps and bugs cropped up in the latest version (nothing major, just annoying), and it appears that there may be a major issue with my plans for end game that will need a overhaul, but I need to investigate further. Thankfully the area affected is "optional".

I've been working on putting Manufactio into an server environment so it can be played multiplayer, like Factorio can, but I keep running into a problem where the quest book is completely blank.

I've tried coping over the data from the DefaultQuests.json into the world's QuestDatabase.json but the file keeps reverting to a blank (aka no quests) state. I've also tried going admin on the server to edit the quest book directly and "import" the DefaultQuests.json file, but that doesn't work either. Everything else seems to work beautiful, but as you know the quest book is basically a requirement of this mod pack.

Any ideas how to get it working server-side?
