10 seconds till first ksp 1.0 stream ever! woot!

the thing is, it shouldn't be costly to build it, as it isn't(from what I've got) in RL, it should be hard to find out how to build it. what i mean is, we need a research system, greg, because a bunch of lasers locking the maximum kinetic energy of a gas shoudln't be more costly than, say, fusion reactors or star gates.

oh right, the biome. crops grow best in swamps/jungles, as these have the highest humidity i think, and higher than *insert forgotten y level here*, so better move your breeding area.

for games with a storyline, post-endgame is after you've finished the story, but in minecraft, it is probably after you've made every machine and have nothing left to do, so "postendgame" doesn't make any sense, maybe endgame of the endgame?

and nathan67003, your link doesn't work for me.

but it is still safer to just not use it, spwnx. and as far as i know, there is quite a lot of randomness in cropbreeding, as you can get almost everything, if with a very low chance. cropbreeding is built upon probabilities, so it is in fact random, although some things are more probable than others.

uhm, with that crapton of mob essence, you could spawn cows directly, but what the heck. also, I checked what toast produces: 46000 and something rf per piece of wheat, an eigth charcoal/400RF i think, 1/2 bucket of water, and some cooking utensils as a single time investment, and some crafting of course, which could be easily automated with something like cyclic assemblers or extra utilities world interaction upgrades.

EDIT:

To be exact, you get 46396 RF from one piece of Toast.

weedex is a never use as it caps your crops stats, but if you don't need really crazy crops, it is not so bad. as far as i know, when you use weedex, it caps your crop's stats at 10, or it just makes it harder to get higher stats, I'm not quite sure on that. as it IS intended to help with weeds, it can beused by the cropmatron, though. I don't think the cropmatron gets you better results, but it keeps nutrition and humidity at a good level, so your crops will grow better just because of that. You can't LOOSE stats, but if you get an increase, it is random. Mutations are completely random as well, but for crops having tiers, and it is less likely to have a mutation with a higher tier than the crops you are using(aka the higher the tier ofn the mutation, the less likely you will get it, the higher the tier of the plants used for breeding, the more likely are higher tiers). Also, you will more likely get a mutation that is similar to the plants you used for breeding(don't really know how it works, but stuff like wheat and redwhat should be similar, although the mutation is still unlikely due to tier differences). Also to note is that if you crossbreed a plant with itself(wheatxwheat, reedxreed, etc), it is extremely unlikely to get a mutation. I hope that helps

Woot! I just noticed KSP 1.0 is going to be released on monday! yay!

oh, and what about a flying shopping cart/trolley?

There is nothing about installing industrialcraft on the wiki, as it has not been updated for 3 years. I can't find anything online saying how to do it. Its been a couple years since I played minecraft, so I'm not sure how you mod anymore. Please post instructions on how to install everything else to make industrialcraft work.

I think you're looking for IC1, and there have been to major updates since the time IC1 was a thing, the update to IC², and quite recently(not really recently, okay, but it hasn't been that long), IC² experimental came out, reworking most of the game mechanics again, so of course there won't be much on the wiki for IC1, as nobody is actually playing it.

right, the culinary generator. it is SO OP with toast, from pam's harvestcraft i think, which gives like 15 food and 5 saturation points, and is made by smelting bread, and i think pam's haarvestcraft also adds the possibility to make bread by smelting one flour which is crafted with one shapeless wheat, so one wheat to one toast, which gives tons of power in the culinary generator.

but there is one thing that i am still wondering about: why is the actual lever piece rotated the wrong way around?

nothing accurate, but i know that after a few(like, 3 or 4) breeding cycles i got a yield of 3-4 per plant and they grew very fast the one time i tried out crops, but i don't know if it was more or less than a minute. it should be easily possible to get them to grow in under a minute though, and maybe even produce 10+ items per growth cycle, too.

i just wanted to ask what the hell went wrong there XD

you play that as well, Airam?

EDIT: totally off-topic, but i should probably make my title A BIT COUGH COUGH shorter, 6 lines is A BIT COUGH COUGH much.

EDIt: ~7 -> 6

that is a serious necropost, and i don't know exactly for how long alblaka hasn't been developing IC² anymore, but it is a LONG time, like, more than 2 years by now, i think.

when did he vanish?

does that thing convert steam from reactors to energy? than the output is totally acceptable. the reactorcraft reactors are BIG and COMPLICATED.
and yes, i know that nobody said this was OP.

i think direwolf20 built the most(fuel) efficient BR in his forgecraft series(at least that's what she Fireball said), which was 7*7 and produced around 11k RF/t

11000/100=110

that's not exactly much, is it?

I tried a 7*7*7 design with graphite blocks and gelid cryotheum which would produce about 22k RF/t, or about 12kmb steam/t. how much would that steam turned into eu equal? and 220eu/t still isn't great.

also, isn't dividing by 25 a littlebit too much? you can get, i think, around 2000eu/t from an ic² reactor, which uses 7 blocks. the max size big reactor you suggest is 49 times as big, so it should be able to produce 49 times as much power, too, right?

i guess that's an option. i haven't played around with rotary(and reactor)-craft so long(okay, i haven't played minecraft so long), that i totally forgot about the fusion reactor.

is that other engine the gas turbine?

Quote from Mine_Sasha

Big reactor CAN be fun if you do it the way Bevo did it ( hard recipes, IC2 Uranium only, steam only, balanced output, capped max size ), but IC2 reactors is a lot cooler to play around with imo, as they require math, and the whole reactor planning is a mini-game by itself , the only thing IC2 lacks is cool models, but otherwise it's better

actually, if you want to make an efficient BR, you still need to do math, to find out how to lay it out. the only difference(apart from the obvious ones) is that the layout of a big reactor happens in the world, not in a GUI like in the IC² reactor.

Quote from Chocohead

There's no point making a config option to output EU, as it makes massively more than can possibly be used.

I guess it could be used with insanely overclocked machines, but you would need some kind of superconductor to get the power to them.
