A while ago I made an automatic, repeatable Wither boss farm using MFFS touch damage and a portal to have it continuously spawn in range of the touch damage blocks before floating into the portal again. I also have a tier-5 wither skeleton farm to get wither skulls relatively fast. Right now, EU production is given by a large lava tank connected to liquid tesseracts and thermal generators. The setup is used to power my automatic rubber farm, quarry processor, and general advanced machines. However, I want to phase out of lava, and go to solar power until I can get into the biggest stuff.
I never mess with the config file, and don't ever plan to, so the recipes for advanced solar panels are stuck on hard mode. I need iridium, and don't want to get it through nerfed bees or loaded mystcraft chunks. The quarry takes about 15 hours or so to mine a 64x64 area because the processor plant makes it run at about half speed. I don't have enough power to make a frame quarry, and turtle quarries have the problem of stopping if I log off or they need rest time.
From the way it seems to far, nether star power may not be worth it, considering all the below elements:
)Wait time for wither skulls
)Wait time for nether stars (farm works at about 1 every 25 seconds when already supplied)
)Magic converters (Tested with 21 magic converters, it takes about 1 minute and 43 seconds for the matter fabricator go up to 6% using scrap boxes. I don't know if it is worth it, or if I should have less/more)
)Wait time for UU-Matter (Calculated at about 1 every 28.6 minutes)
)UU-Matter to iridium (Calculated at about 1 every 3.3 hours, if I calculated right, not taking into account time for reinstalling nether stars, and the wait time above)
