Not just the retrievers; we can hope that the fix for 'overflowing' items is in 1.337 as well. In that case all we need to do is rapidly tick the retriever for empty buckets, and use a detector to trigger the refill. The question is, can that setup do a full 4 buckets/sec? (Actually dual injectors (filters driving buckets in) and retrievers could be setup with a tiny bit more work... quad if necessary).

I don't think you can effectively /edit/ the data, but I do think it's possible to store and load in the same orientation.

This is probably one of two correct places. However you're not asking for the correct thing.

Req: IC + BC mod - oil cracking generators

or

Req: BC + IC mod - oil cracking generators in Industrialraft

Depending on if you're posing someplace IC or BC primarily related.

Come to think of it; maybe all of that overpowered oil is why some users think solars are overpowered... (it probably isn't I just don't see a value in that landscape modification).

This would be a bit easier if Mojang were a little better about communicating various things. However most probably Murphy's law will strike and no time will be optimal. If you have to peg your timeline to anything I'd target the underlying library; just follow whatever one it is (Forge in this case) and try to keep the head compatible with developments there.

My observation of the current mining behavior is that if you mess up like that (of course this was with the miner attached) it would drill back through the existing pipe and collect it all in the output bin. If it lost pipe sections I don't think I noticed.

Are you /sure/ re-mining through the pipe head doesn't work?

Oh my goodness. I had /not/ considered that. Sufficiently awesome point. Still I wonder how twitchy it will be about drawing buckets out.

The last 4 bucket, 5 chamber design I speced up more or less needed 4 buckets a second average (it was /slightly/ positive in this regard, but anything less than 3 ticks a second out and you'd better kill it as fast as you can).

I will again consider building an elevated railway when I have frames to send a machine to do it for me. The one I built in my 1.5 world (gone now; may it rest in pieces) took soo damn long and I had to throw it all away because of the lack of forward vision on anyone's part (notches in the world it's self; mine for just so idealistically building right on top of it...)

Oh /shift/ walk in to the pole... no wonder I'd been dieing each time I tried. I was just WALKING.

ModloaderMP (server) contains some modloader stubs or something that looks similar to them at any rate.

This doesn't actually tell us anything useful for figuring out what went wrong.

Since in doubt the protocol is:

Download everything again.

Make sure you have the /correct/ versions in the set.

Copy everything (backup this)

Mix it all together fresh and see if you got it right.

I /really/ have to point out.

Your 'advanced' and 'teleporter' pipes are both addons to BC. This is very much like comparing strawberries against bananna split sundaes.

Sweet, I can imagine the cable walkways now... cable floor, glass/Re.Glass walls and cieling. The new luminators on the sides.

Yeah, that's fun stuff that should be in the (imminent) release pf RP2pr4. Still, as the EAQ / FAQ has links to useful things, the recipes and world items offered by it are wonderful additions.

Honestly it boggles the mind.

How difficult would it be to just make CF foam climbable for player entities only? Justify it as something like putting a hidden ladder face in it, or being even more similar to scaffolding.

RedPower2 is modular. You can have JUST the wires without all that extra logic stuff. (There are some parts that aren't optional, I think the gazillion wire covers really.) However at the same time, why not just install the whole standard mod for compatibility and /ignore/ the parts you don't want to use. You can even turn off the extra ores and world features (giant rubber trees, volcanoes) in the config file (I think on the latter stuff anyway).

I think he was asking more about the 'mods' to IC2; EG the 'addons'.

I think my guess at this is; it depends. If it /just/ mods IC2, which isn't obfuscated, (just byte compiled) then probably it will only need to be updated if those interfaces within IC2 change.

I imagine if the wrench code is modified to make it's success rate a config file option that would break the 100% wrench rate modification. However at the same time adding wrench rate config options for the disposable and electric wrenches would obsolete that addon.

From the description, you should be moderately happy with the lights that are supposed to be in 1.33

That is my observation as well. The transformers don't 'remember' they have the remaining 3/4th packet to dole out.

Arrgh... x.x screwdriver. I knew I forgot something. I can't believe how long, and the insane gymnastics I've done, to avoid using what I thought didn't exist yet.

I personally really like these trees, but build my bases in deserts anyway. Big flat areas. The only pain is mining fracs the surface material...

I, for one, would love to see glass. However cables have to be run anyway right?
