Alkydere posted:Try the longsword. Hold down right click for a second then release for a short hop and then 5-10 seconds (can't remember how long) of running at increased speed. It's not a shield but its great for fleeing creepers or closing the ground between you and Skeletons. Also for just covering distance. Personally I'm not even using a "weapon" as a weapon, I just carry a mining hammer and watch as it slaughters undead in 2-3 hits due to the fact it does double damage versus undead (which consist of the majority of hostile enemies you'll see). The battleaxe is a pretty awesome non-weapon weapon as well, and it's useful for those Natura trees that won't treecap, since it always cuts 1x9 when you break wood with it. (It also has that speed boost right-click like the longsword.)

Sunblood posted:Ah okay that's perfect. There was a mod I used to use called Additional Pipes that had insertion and some other weird things like Advanced Wooden Pipes but it has since fallen out of use. Additonal Pipes also had a few useful pipes, like a round-robin distribution pipe, and the advanced wooden pipe is better than the default BC emerald pipe, because it doesn't pull in round-robin. (With an emerald pipe, if you put in dirt and cobble, it will pull dirt, cobble, dirt, cobble, and if one runs out it won't continue to pull the other.)

Three things about that setup - first, you're better off using Thermal Expansion's Aqueous Accumulator, as it doesn't draw power to produce water, second, TE's redstone energy conduit is more expensive but produces less lag than Mek's universal cable, and third, each hydrogen generator/electrolyzer combo only produces 10MJ/t (in Buildcraft MJ) after enough is taken out to power the electrolyzer.

It would take inputs from transport pipes but would not output to them, meaning it had to be unloaded by hand and then fed into the reactor. A wood pipe wouldn't extract? Did you try setting the sides with the configurator?

Forge Multipart looks like the microblock implementation that we've all been waiting for since Redpower died. It has support for multiple torches, levers, buttons, and redstone torches in a single block space, as well as the standard microblocks. (Also, Chickbones has brought back wireless redstone for 1.6.)

Cerevisiae posted:What's the difference between this and Immibis Microblocks as far as microblocks go? The multiple torch, lever, button on the same block part is pretty great though. The difference appears to be that it's an API that can be implemented by other mods, and not just its own mod, meaning other mods' buttons/switches/etc. can be made multipart-compatible as well.

Taffer posted:Pretty typical of direwolf to completely ignore the accomplishments of another mod though. Don't get me wrong Multipart looks amazing and does stuff we've never seen, but Immibis microblocks has allowed multiple things in a single block space for a long time. Not only multiple microblocks, but pipes/cables etc, but direwolf acted like that had never been done before. True, but at least with it becoming an extension of Forge, other mods can plan for it and make their wires/tubes/conduits/what-have-you compatible with it. With Immibis microblocks, the "coexisting with other mod things" was hit-or-miss, and you might have to dig pretty far to find the right configuration to allow it.

Now the game has crashed because two blocks are technically in the same spot I guess. Is there any way to fix this or am I screwed? That shouldn't happen, if you put artifice scaffolds so high they run into another block, (at least in my experience) they just erase the other block.

Silk Cutter I know mentions this. Maybe something with the magic fabric or whatever? I'd really like to get my wand of dislocation enchanted to not break immediately for example. The ones that don't say "can't be enchanted" (because they don't come with enchantments) can be enchanted in the normal ways, but Craft & Enchant is one of the better ones, because you can choose exactly what enchantments to use. (In the case of wands, you want Charging.) Also, I agree, wands of dislocation are drat awesome. The standard limit of 3 uses just sucks though.

Prokhor posted:How are you routing seeds back to the planter? Depending on what pack you're on I would recommend using insertion pipes. Insertion pipes put items in to a container of they can take it and bypass it if they can't so you don't have like diamond pipes splitting it in half but most of them fall out and disappear. If you put it right alongside the inventory (in this case, the planter) diamond pipes work as well as insertion pipes - filter the seeds towards the planter, and if there's not room, the diamond pipe will send them the other available direction, along with everything that's not the filtered seeds. (Buildcraft diamond pipes are smart enough now to look into an inventory that's directly attached and not try to send items into a full inventory even if that's the direction they're filtered towards.)

^^ That would be awesome. Erogenous Beef posted:That's not a bug; the reactor can't operate if part of it is unloaded, as the bits that are unloaded may actually contain parts of the simulation. If any part of the reactor unloads, the whole thing pauses until the machine is whole again. You can use UE uranium, but I think yellorium is more common by default. I believe people are confused by the third number actually being the build number - for those people, you read those as "0.1 build 7" and "0.1 build 13". Builds are less major changes that don't justify going up a full version, or even a full .1 of a version.

Here's one that CJ ran into with Railcraft. On that subject, there's no way that forcing people to choose between Tinker's Construct and Gregtech could go any way but badly for Greg. Edit: Found this while googling for more instances of ItsNotMyFaultException:  It's from back in April, but that makes it no less hilarious. (Even funnier is the fact that you can change the Technic launcher install folder to completely evade it. I changed mine to .tl2 back when the launcher had its major update, just to get around stupid poo poo like this.)

Reading TileEntityUnifier.java, it seems like it should be able to, but it will not accept either liquid being pumped in. Biofuel and ethanol however work exactly as expected. Is this a bug or am I missing something important? This is on MFR 2.6.4 and LXP 55.1.5 for MC 1.5.2 I believe it's not yet completely implemented until they finish implementing the grinder overhaul, so you won't be able to double-dip LXP and essence.

Only neither the new Forestry multi-farms (which are admittedly cool when you figure them out, and pretty looking) or the easier to work with (but not as pretty) MFR harvesters recognize or harvest the fruit in my experience. Multifarms have to be configured to Arboretum to pick fruit off trees, and you want the fruit picker, not the harvester.
