Nope... you still at some point have to use the Cart Assembler and you run into that 2nd issue of having to wait and you still have to deal with a level of complexity some people do not find fun.

Just to be clear to to assemble is often multiple minutes for the cart. You can have all your parts AE crafted and ready pop them in the assembler and be told come back in 10 minutes for the really advanced ones. Most carts around around a minute or two and if your making multiple carts for automation that adds up.

I'm not saying this is a huge issue but it is one of he gripes I see often with the mod as there is no way to automate this part of the mod.


I know that, yeah. But still, if you have multiple cart assemblers then you could do it. It might take quite a while but you could lay down rails or something or other, idk. It does take a heck of a long time though.

And that is one of the huge issues some people have with SC.

Over all it is a nice mod but in a pack a lot of the stuff you can do with SC you can do with a much shorter setup time with other mods which is why you don't see it used as much as it could be.

Here's an Idea:

Convert a survivalist's fort, into a mansion, as you progress.

For added challenge:

Forge a city in SSP and defend it from nightly mob invasions. If the city stands (assuming your city hall is not breached) within:
5 days: Coal Medal
10 days: Iron Medal
25 days: Gold Medal
50 days: Diamond Medal
100+ days: Titanium Medal

I'll build a map with a city, play it on Hard Survival, no cheats, NEI usage limited to Recipe mode. Fortifications to the city (automated or otherwise) are allowed only for legitly crafted items and collected resources.

Legit enchantments to gear are allowed.

@Noby07 I already have "I LIKE TRAINS! : Use Steve's Cart and Rail Craft as your main automation system. If you can do it with carts do so. (SC/RC)" which killing mobs with steve's cart falls under.
@TheN1K0L4Z this is already covered more or less by "Find a village and then expand and rebuild it into a large 100+ population themed city (any)" since to get a village to 100+ pop would require you defended it nightly in some fashion. And the Fort to a mansion thing I am fairly sure is how a vast number of people play by default as expanding is easier then rebuilding or creating a full base from scratch.

@matpower Added the prefect crop thing.
But the No (mod here) challenge really is not so much a challenge as not everyone even use those mods or even sees them as useful so its not really something that effects people all that much.

I do not have any sort of collect all the X or any of that in this list as those are fairly simple and hopefully you don't need someone to tell you collecting one of every bee could be a project. Also missing are any 'complete' the mod sort of things as with the bees it should be obvious that you could make a project by unlocking/building everything a mod offers.​

Right in the the main post I don't have this sort of thing in the list for a reason. Extending it to a full orchard does not really add much to the whole idea.

-50% of steam generation must be created using Factorization.
-Energy storage is forbidden. (No batteries, IC2 storage devices (includes the Lapatron, Energy Cystals and RE batteries; Chargepads okay), and redstone energy cells. If I am missing anything, let me know.)
-You can only use Luminators for light. (IC2)
-Make a giant (50+ blocks tall) FTB logo using diamond, emerald, and redstone blocks surrounded by obsidian.

Go into the TiC config and disable vanilla tool crafting. Still perfectly playable, just very hard. I do this myself.

It's No Lie: Build a fully automatic cake factory powered entirely by a skeleton spawner. Bonus points for making it mobile (turtles or frames) and send it off laying an infinite trail of cakes in a flat mystcraft age.

How wouldyou use CC to display liquid levels in a railcraft tank? Or the energy in an MFSU? I know how to do it with nuclear control, but not CC, any tips?
