I want to be really happy about this, but @Reika codes faster than I can successfully upgrade and config his mods. Liked on principal regardless.

Anyone have a clue what this means?
* RotaryCraft: Added Borer shield block


I'd guess it's something you place so that someone's borer won't eat your house. :d
Not the first world guard type block Reika's made. He made a protect from other player type block for geostrata.

Good theory, makes sense. Consider the borer essentially quarries...forever, if you're on a server, its not totally unlikely you'd eventually smash through someone else's stuff.

This is exactly what it is.

Awh you gave away the secret. :p
Are you going to make any other security and safety blocks? I'd like to see one that protects on a chunk by chunk basis. It would be invaluable for servers. Though it would definitely ether have to be un-powered or except any sort of power. In fact having a option for internal power might be a very fine idea. Something like burning stuff like a furnace.
I know it sounds OP but you should be able to program it so that only one can be registered to a person at a time. That would be suitable for early game. And you could add external power to expand the effective range or connect relays. Though this might work best as a stand alone mode.

Thanks for the update. Good to see BC getting some nice updates.

And it's [url]Insert URL[/url] or [url="Insert URL"]Insert text to appear[/url]
Oho, nice! Thank you! :)

New creative engines! Output amount is togglable with a shift-click with a wrench, similar to the iron power pipe.
Man, you're awesome!

Quick video demoing both the creative engines, and a feature I've been sort of quiet about, but just finished up

Those facades are really neat. I would never have thought of something like that but now I can see it being a nice thing to have in your base for certain things. The new buildcraft is looking really excellent, I look forward to playing it (staying on 1.6 for a while longer though).

I'm glad you did this. Setting up a BC power factory just to test some stuff out in creative could get irritating after doing it a few times.

TE energy conduits can convert RF into BC power. So just add a Thermal Expantion creative cell and you are good.

The latter, however I don't see the humour if it was a joke. Also a lot is changing in the 1.7 branch of TE, they're going to remove the pulverizer and redstone furnace as they are porting to EU to become an IC2 addon.
It's not April 1st as anymore you can't just do that to people
