My hopes is that someone else will make a good open source minecraft clone, and all modding community will move there.
Terasology looks good, ftw.

Point taken. Will have to translate it before publishing :3

Yeah, it was nearly published readable and useful, the horror!

1 billion EU is just three cycles of casuc, with 5 uranium ore used per cycle.

I think it's a good thing that there is something that can't be made from UU. Adds fun to endgame.

Are you serious.

About pipes being more fit for some specific tasks than tubes? Absolutely.

Buckets could be much more compact, i think. And you could use much less compressors, if you use overclockers

Actually, with IC you can also acquire exponential growth with windmills and uu.

You could also just build more than one of these contraptions and equally distribute the Cobble to the Recyclers, or you could also buil a Relay ontop of every single Recycler to let less Items bounce around.

Yes, but it will be more ugly and, likely, more laggy than with pipes.

If breeding at below 9k, each second it is defined by chance, if isotope will gain one point. At 9kplus it is a determenistic process.
But it is very likely if breeding at 9k will require one second more than full cycle. For me, it's a good thing, because it leaves holes at right places and allows easy replacing.

The downloadable GregTower2 has a massfeed-System for the Recyclers (and Macerators, and Furnaces, and Extractors, and Compressors), its easy to build:

Ok, 32 recyclers, each with 6 overclockers, how many tim will it take for one stack of fodder to reach last in line, and how many stacks do you see bouncing back and forth in tubes at the moment?

For tubes it's between 1 and 2 stacks and seconds.

Replaced tubes with pipes (of advanced insertion variety) in recycler feeding system. Improved things a lot. Each stack is fed in moments, and remote recyclers are not staying dry, unlike with tubes.

I think, tubes are just not fit for mass-feed.

There are (supposedly) always a lot of endermen in The End.

Nobody sees it a problem, probably.

Cropnalyzers are broken

Those things re inherently evil. Thy make crossbreeding a painful repetitive chore. I say, sack them entirely and replace it with SeedManager add-on.

Bug is still present in 1.103 and is EXTREMELY annoying.

Actually, it's one item/second per wooden pipe, not per table. I used 2 tables/6 pipes setup for sawing cobble into slabs, but now i replaced it with CC Crafty Turtle.
And recclers I usually used overclocked, because otherwise you need too much of them.

Are there any other ways to feed recyclers in numbers, except cobblegen? Because it seems to be laggy no matter what, just because of light sources crated and destroyed.
Snowman could be interesting, but snowballs are banned, and if you make a snow blocks, you need too many snowmen. May be I'm wrong, though, as people manage to get up to 30 snowballs from single snowman...
Other interesting way I have seen is using BC-generated tubes (by miner,pump and quarry). has someone measured it's effectiveness compared to cobblegen?

I have troubles providing recyclers with slabs in non-laggy way, using RP. Faarthest recyclers stand dry, while stacks wander around nearest recyclers to source. I will probably have to use bc instead for this particular task.

A week into any IC2 server, and everybody wear quantum armor (and jetpack), looking like armor of clones. So, why not make it show more skin? A face, at least?

Tin to iron is a "cheat", probably, but gold helmet to gold is hardly so.
