Quote from Omicron

There are two different efficiency 20 designs available.

Those are base efficiency 4. Since you can't get 100% reactor heat for the 5x multiplier and blocks melt above 85%, it's not really accurate to call them "efficiency 20". For the sake of standardization, can we please refer to MOX reactor efficiencies using the base, 0-heat values? I've seen some people mention efficiencies at ~70% heat, some at ~85% heat, and some at 100% heat, and it's confusing without adequate context.

Good setups, though. Nice high EU/t out of those reactors as well.

Quote from Chocohead

For the second one of those, how about this for the diamond strapped peoples?

That will cool down by itself when fuel rods run out, and even if you automate fuel switching you will probably miss a reactor tick somewhere and lose heat. There's a pretty solid reason why most MOX setups employ large numbers of advanced heat vents.

Tried to do SpwnX's design from a few pages back, turns out Iridium Neutron Reflectors don't work! I'll have to stick with IC2 reflectors for the time being. Can I just attach a hopper + chest of normal reflectors to every reactor, or do I have to use GT's machines to insert them into specific slots?

And in a related note, anyone want to try and design the most efficient zero-automation MOX reactor possible? Initial investment is no issue.

EDIT> c4commando made a slimmer eff 5 design. 4 chambers, so you can put reactors side-by-side or even stack them.

Quote from abculatter_2

I don't Want infinite cobble generators, I want to disable them all.

Why?

Maybe add a 3500K recipe to the blast furnace for Nickel-Titanium Alloys? Could be used to make medium durability (steel-tier?) repairable tools (when empty, smelt in furnace to recover durability to full, otherwise repairs itself slowly over time when in the player's inventory).

Removes the no-pink-blocks-needed OmniBlastFurnace and gives a use to all the nickel and titanium that players accumulate in vast quantities. Perhaps require this alloy for third-tier electrical tools (highly advanced drill/saw/wrench etc).

So... about those things higher tier than Fusion reactors.

Osmiridium Alloy Ingot:

Osmiridium Alloy Plate:

Extremely Advanced Machine Block:

Extremely Advanced Machine Casing:

This could perhaps be used to create very endgame stuff. I have some random ideas below:

- TESU (Telekinetic Energy Storage Unit. 4 IDSUs + 4 teleporters + Extremely Advanced Machine Block. Uses the same energy storage as IDSUs, but has unlimited EU/t out! How will it work? Every machine within 64 blocks of the TESU block will receive as much EU as they need, if upgraded with a TESU-receiver. No explosions, no transformer upgrades necessary.)
- TESU-receiver upgrade (Teleporter + EV Transformer in Assembling Machine. Upgrade machine with this to make it able to draw power from nearby TESU. If machine connected to another power source, only draws power from TESU if wire-supplied EU is not sufficient.)
- Singularity Generator (multiblock that creates a black hole to eat scrap and converts it to EU as per E=mc^2, 1 scrap = some number of grams. Must feed it scrap constantly while it's on, if you run out of scrap and don't shut it down quickly it explodes).
- Wormhole Generator (Chunk-sized "tesseract". Erases a target chunk and replaces it with a copy of the originating chunk. Everything that happens to one chunk will happen to the other, unless the wormhole generator breaks. Eats 2048EU/t, plus a flat number for each chunk update inside it.)
- Matter Translocator (Advanced Pump-sized quarry, multiblock. Requires a constant supply of a solid block to function. Digs one block per tick, outputs the result from the output hatch, and eats one block from the input hatch. The block that this quarry digs up will be replaced with a block that you supply to the quarry. Digs one block per tick for 1024 EU, or if supplied with an iridium drill, digs one block per tick for 2048 EU with either Fortune or Silk Touch (depending on the mode the drill is in.)
- Spacetime Translocator (Moves a volume of blocks. Think RedPower frames.)

Maybe a higher tier of Qsuit that recharges your tools like a lapotron pack?

Realistic = annoying to use. See Minecraft Joules and Railcraft Boilers. EU has always been "clean" and intuitive and should stay that way

Mining laser works at breaking hives pretty reliably. Think of it as a nerf to forestry

EDIT> On the next update day, could you make endstone, sedimentary UB rocks, and GT granites go into backpacks?

List of all possible products from various ore-processing methods. Note that this assumes you have Fortune III and Silk Touch available, as you otherwise cannot obtain all the ore blocks or attempt the Fortune Route.

Note: Crushed/Purified/Centrifuged ores smelt to 10 nuggets. Choose between a nugget of the primary product or 1/10 of the tertiary byproduct at your discretion.

Industrial craft to build #335

The server in fact runs build #336

rv14 is abandoned, is it not?

EDIT> Right clicking on an ME certus tank with an oil cell crashes it. Is the certus tank supposed to be an actual tank?

EDIT2> Now I crash every time I look at the certus tank because it cannot render the tile entity, due to GC oil not having a texture.

Quote from Omicron

When you're done collecting the diamond chest full of uranium ore, can you take a screenshot? That would be pretty impressive to see...

Close. A gold chest would fit (~61 stacks of 64 Uranium ore).

Out of curiosity, what's the status of players on the server atm? Is everyone working together in some town, or did all the players go their separate ways and teched up independently? How far up is the highest tier machine currently attained?
