"Congratulations, Technician, for discovering the recipe for your first Generator, you have made a valuable contribution to my research, and for that, Humanity/Ponykind is starting to look up to you."

Wouldn't you be encouraged to push on by opening a book containing this passage, when you craft your first generator? What if you got a similar message of praise, when you create one of each machine? Would you press on in the name of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics?

The thing is GregTech doesn't praise and encourage players for crafting machines of the Bronze Age, and beyond. You may know the recipe and struggle for your first small coal boiler, but do you gain something for your initiative? NO! You just craft a piece of junk, without any clue on how to use it without killing yourself.

Greg, I suggest that you give players a token of contribution in the form of writing. Operator's Manuals for each machine, with a word of praise in the beginning. Perhaps something witty to compliment the Machine crafted.

Nonotan, do you offer tips towards mass production of just about everything GregTech has to offer? Let's not forget Adventure Maps for scenarios such as inventory management, efficient crafting, and knowing your tools.

If GregTech can make machines, why not use those machine products to make vehicles?

Just think of it Greg, Anti-Gravity Vehicles! WipEout in Minecraft, GregTech style! Since we have Horses now, why not apply that to Hovercrafts?

Hello, GregTechnicians! It's been quite a while since my last post here. So here's what's been going on:

I'm building a 1.6.4 Modpack known as Tech Trail. And to promote my Modpack, I'm making a video to showcase what you can do with it. Automation, Industrial Architecture, and more. Hence its Tagline "The most Industrialized Modpack for Minecraft", this pack will give you the free reign to build factories, either underground or, what I'm interested in, on the surface.

Yet, planning a factory on the surface, requires that you have a basic knowledge of Real Estate, or Civil Engineering. Because the worldgen is unpredictable, one of the very best tools my modpack will provide is, WorldEdit, via SPC.

But I'm stuck with no design, and could use some help. When building a factory on the surface, what should be the average area in blocks for a Massive Factory? And should the factory Expand to meet player demands?

I'll provide a blueprint in this post for criticism. Don't know when it will be done.

Well, my factory is going to implement GT, but this is for FTB Ultimate 1.1.2 so if you can't get it to run correctly feel free to change the setup towards your taste. The PowerPoint presentation will be made soon once the factory is complete.
