No idea about the centrifuge because I don't play GT, but rotating happens to all power storage and transformer blocks... just like the regular IC2 wrench

I don't remember, but I do know that there were a few machines I could not remove with the omniwrench in my old base when I moved most of my production to my ship. I had to dig out my electric wrench to get them.
Had a similar problem, double right clicking or clicking the "right" face (usually top or bottom) seemed to work for me.
Yeah I know.... But on the upshot a lot of this extra work right now is doing stuff to get a work from home rig done. Yay soon to be no driving and I can work in a dark cave forever cut off from the sun!
I've been working on plating the ship. No screen shots. I've also been having a lot of issues recently with MC running out of memory and crashing. I've gotten the ship about 1/3rd plated.
Found a few things about the covers. First they act like transparent blocks or half slabs for spawning. Nothing seems to want to spawn where I plated the ship already. Which is great means I don't need to light up the outside. The other thing... Yeah stone picks take forever to break micro blocks. I've had to resort to using iron for cleaning up mistakes.
But all and all its coming along nicely. Just this part is slow and boring and made more so because I'm crashing every 20 minutes are so.

Ya Saice I know another guy on the server that I play on has been having the same trouble with MC. Keeps sayin hes runnin out of memory even when he allocates 10gigs!.. Something fishy goin on.
I'm also getting blocks of area they stop rendering. It is like a chunk error but instead of a chunk is like a 10x10x10 area that just stops rendering.
Not sure about that part... all I know is that he'll crash like 3 times in 30 min meanwhile I'm not having any problems at all.
Well, microblocks are tile entities after all, and you've got a lot of 'em.
Just swap furnaces for all the smoothstone in one chunk in vanilla, see what it does to your pc
.By the way, I'm glad that you're still goin'. The subforum needed a nice thread bad.

Yeah I'm hopping thats not it. I'm going to do some testing and if it is the micro blocks I'll just have to bust out the wand of trade and make a crap ton more gold. 8 times more gold to be right
Think I'll clone the region file into a creative map and see if removing the covers resoves the issue.
I foresee a LOT of lava being centrifuged for the gold..
Another option- you can grind 16 netherrack in an industrial grinder for 16 netherrack dust and a gold nugget, you can then put the 16 dust in an industrial centrifuge for another nugget.
I'm still working on my ship, but been doing other stuff like thaumcraft research & finally got my L5 blaze soul shard for my exp farm.

I think a Zombie Pigman grinder would be better for gold production. They not only have a chance for gold nugget drops, they might also drop their golden gear, which can be put in a RP2 alloy furnace for more gold.
As noted above I am using a Zombie Pigman soul shard teir 5 now. I ripped out the lava system awhile back.
Oddly testing with furnaces did not seem to be all the big an issue. But yeah as soon as I copied my regeion over to a blank world I kicked up the same issue. SO I think is is the microblocks and not just that fact they are tiles. I have a bad feeling the microblocks because of how they are rendered just take more to do.
So time to go to my dead zone and craft a bunch of wands of trade and get to work with that.
OOooooooo Kay
First sorry for the long delay with updates. I've been having many many issues with MC lately some of them fixed but I'm still plagued by random out of memory issues. I had to removed all my covers (which at the time was about 1/2 of the ship done) which to remove take time if your using pickaxes you either can take forever with stone or you can throw away a lot of diamonds and make it faster. As I need my diamonds for when I get to making the lighting system I can't really use them on much else right now. So yeah that took a lot of time. But as I also needed to create a hell of a lot more gold it was a trade off since I would be waiting around anyways. I built a small Pigman system that auto crafted the gold into bars then fed into a composer. It took days... and I mean DAYS to get the gold I needed even when I just left it up and running 24/7 with a chunk loader. Something like 8 barrels worth of gold blocks if you want to know.
I live it a rappers dream home now.

Thats another thing... I think I burned through like a dozen or so wands of trade. And found that if you spam them to fast ... yeah did not know I could crash a server that way. Hopefully it was just a random bug and not something inherently wrong with the wands swapping logic. I did not test that because well crashing servers are bad mkay.
All this sandstone was gold at one point.

I still got a lot to do. I want four arms/spires coming out of the sides to give it more that protos mothership look. I want to see if I can get 2 or 4 windmills on those arms and have them still look good. I need to add windows. I think all tapper them off as they go up to give that sort of circle look the glass on the mothership has. I need to actually build a power system and storage system so I can move the stuff from my old base over. And I really need to make some wairthlamps to light the whole thing up. One of the issues with no covers is now stuff will spawn on top of the ship which is annoying as hell.

How did you get the souls for the zombies? I have lots of trouble with pigmen, from standing on a 4 block high structure, I tend to get hit by one and fall off. If surrounded by walls, I keep getting hit.
Then they steal my sword, and when they have an enchanted sword while I have the stone sword I find in the first chest I see at home, I get problems.

Why not put covers on the top of the ship? I must have missed the reason covers were taken out back.
An easy way, until the next update, is to harvest the zombie pigmen spawners found under the thaumcraft altars. They spawn fairly frequently in flat areas, and are even easier to harvest if you have MystCraft.
Otherwise, build a bunker so the zombie pigmen cannot reach you, but you can reach them. A hole in the wall which is blocked off so they cannot walk through, for example.
