So could I run minecraft in a coffee machine?

If we go by the idea of a windmap based on biomes and terrain around, a current map on oceans would be plausible indeed.

River and ocean water-biome detection would be separate. Of course an ocean has a fuckton more of water.

That could be a bug, i'll check and then report to the devs if it is the case.

Edit: It seems to be the case, reporting.

Lapis dust maybe? (I have not used it in like... forever, but i think that is how it is)

You would be limited by the amount of river biome blocks around. You can't trick it. You can only find larger rivers.
Depth would be limited to the height of the sea/river level and the natural ground floor {no artificial deep rivers} If anything, just check for water + biome and not depth.

What about making the river powered mill check for river biome (and if it has water n depth) around (like up to a 64 block square radius) then sum up to calculate the output. Rain would affect it similarly to how it does to wind.

Necroposting is discouraged but not prohibited.
You can do it if you're adding something important to the topic, which is not often the case though.
We like to rely on common sense.

By the way, do you have any reason to use colored fonts? It gets obnoxious when quoting.

That would be a must to get decent drops.

I like the idea of a plant that gives raw energy when harvested. The xp one is not that bad either, but it should grow utter slow if not fertilized and hydrated.

Ah... i'm starting to remember my good old windmill towers (those featured wire engineering aswell).

Slow? sure. It will take 34 seconds indeed. LV machine.
The difference is automation. Its recommended if you don't need it immediately or dont have much energy to spare for such task.

After you have machines to do so its pointless to keep a manual process that is a cauldron.

steam is the lowest industrial tech level i can possibly see

Highly pressurized steam containers would work off as a battery.

IC2 does not detect humidity and temperature. Its type based.

Make sure that the orange square of the blast furnace and the generator are touching.

If I recall correctly swamp and jungle are equally good. Custom biomes are detected by their type internally. (cherry forest is a forest type biome , wasteland is a desert type biome. Some biomes won't be properly detected and will default to no bonus)

Can't tell for sure. If light can't go through likely won't be. You could test if you have gregtech (its scanner can detect nutrient, humidity and air quality conditions of a crop).

Something like that indeed.
