An addon that allows you to get resources on a skyblock world and is focused on ic2
Requires java 8
To "power" manual machines simply shift-right click on them!
First steps
In typical skyblock fashion you start by punching trees and mining cobblestone. The first machine you will need to build is the Manual Grinder. This machine will give you the resources you need to further progress. At first processing resources will be quite inefficient. It will get better once you are able to progress in the tech tree.
Dirty Situation
Getting dirt will be the your first real contact with ic2 recipes and mechanics. Using the Manual Macerator you will be able to turn your sapplings and leaves into Bio Chaff. Thie Bio Chaff can then be macerated further into dirt or be used in a fermenter to get Biomass. Biomass and Biofuel are good options for early/mid game power generation.
Where is the rubber???
Rubber is the last step before you can get yourself some nice electric machines. Since in skyblock you can't just explore the world and find rubber trees i made things more interesting. For those who have used ic2 crops this will be a no brainer but for those who never even heard about it you will need to make some research on how ic2 crops work. Normally you would need to crossbreed crops until you get Stickreeds but in order for this to not become boring i added some seed bags as tall grass drops. How do you get grass you might ask? Not with grass seeds that is for sure. You will be using another ic2 crop mechanic for this task. The infamous weeds will help you with getting grass since weeds, when on maximum size, spawn grass around them.
Getting water and lava
Use the arc furnace to get lava and the water accumulators to get water.
