4600 I kind of got tired of the grind in Age of Engineering; I really don't have the commitment even though i love it to bits :/
See, this is what I'm concerned about. I have suggested AoE to a friend for his server after they move on from Regrowth, but if it's too grindy without much reprieve I wonder if it's worth it :/ funnily enough, despite being really behind on Regrowth relative to my buddies, I've thrown myself into it and I'm actually having a blast :)
 
4604 I really Love it, I really do. But, the thing is, that after a certain point you are basically mining and crafting 24/7 with no reprieve or time to dink around with slime boots and slime sling for example. Also, it helps to have some fore knowledge on the mods that are later on, specifically Tech Reborn and NeoTech for me :/ (also a little bit of Advanced Rocketry)

The techreborn thing worries me slightly, as isn't that in something of a buggy state, compared to IC2? I've always got that feeling. I know NOTHING about NeoTech, so I might need to have a look into that, and all I've seen of Advanced Rocketry is from DW20's Invasion series :p
 
4607. Speaking of DW20, it slightly infuriates me that he hasn't taken the simple step in his AoE playthrough of either moving his squeezer and carpenter one block apart so he can use an EnderIO fluid tank between them, or (and this is what I would do) simply have one each in front of both so he can create a path for the seed oil to flow if he needs to, but if he needed to clear out the oil and put in water, for example, it would also be very straighforward!
 
4609. :D See, you say that, but at this early stage, and with the ease of changing the push/pull status of the tanks, and the fact that their storage would be advantageous, I shall stand by my statement ;)
 
4612. Not from me! :) Its a minor gripe - not like the gold horse armor he kept missing in Invasion! Ooh the salt was considerable...
 
4615. Progress in Regrowth last night - got my copper, iron, tin and coal seeds all made and planted to improve them, as well as the next level of infusion stone. Turned my first few bits of copper into a Vat too, ready to get going on some serious Mariculture; and I planted (for want of a better word) my pearl oysters - already got one ender pearl out of them, so that's something. I've got a bunch of things I want to do now; going to be stuck deciding which to do first! :p
 
4616 I was trying to put together my own modpack yesterday, but for some reason it kept freezing and coming back after i restarted the game, and I had been playing for a good hour or so without problems before that :/
 
I don't know what the problem was, but the only thing i can come up with that, because I added Mekanism in the in-between time, it was retro-genning and causing lag.

That could be it. I know that when I was putting together a very small modpack for 1.10, without Mekanism it was OK, not super fast but workable, but with Mek it became unplayably slow.
