I was playing on Enderville and I made a decent amount of money by mass-producing rubber. Apparently a lot of people don't bother to set up a rubber farm early on and are always short, especially when it comes time to make a solar array. But once you have the infrastructure it's not so hard to produce as much as you need. That being said, I don't see anything wrong with decreasing the iron requirement of solars from 10 to 8.

I get that solars were OP before and needed to be brought down a bit, but the current cost feels just a little too high. I didn't have enough resources to start messing with lots of solar panels until I was already at the early mass fab stage. When you want to get just 32 EU/t out of a solar array, that's a difference of one entire stack of iron.

Yes, but they have to be a bit more expensive because of their ease of use. If you are limited by space, solars are very good option and they don't even need much wiring.

How about this!
Sand => Macerator = Silicon
Silicon => Extractor = Purified Silicon

= Silicon Circuit Base(Iron replacement:D)

= Purified Silicon
= Redstone

Much better I think.

thanks, added

But I don't know if a plant that might look similar exist.

Weed has an unique texture, you'll get used to spotting it among your crops easyly.

I see 3 HD's in a row next to each other i think it can be optimized better.

My try: http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…10101001511f21s1r14lflr10

Quote from Bluehorazon

Sometimes it is hard to differ between weed and a new plant (because you don't know how this new plant will look like), would be cool if right-clicking will destroy weed.

Pictures of weed are in the main post and Weed has its own dark green texture. You can tell from green pixel positions if it's weed or not.

Quote from Bluehorazon

I thought the same. Funny enough the reeds only produced more reeds :P, not a single misshaped plant (like... melons^^), only tons of reeds. And they grow incredible fast.

If reed with Growth=3 grows incredibly fast, i can't imagine how fast would plant with growth=30 grow.

Are you trying to plant cookies ?

Quite effective, won't explode, will fill 2.4 MFSUs on one go. Decent design.

Quote from tehfrecklez

The link to the design is http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…=1k10101001501521s1r01r10. The reactor has a 2.6 efficiency.26,000,000 eu per cycle and 130 per tick. it has a cooldown of 4mins and 35secs. With a maximum of 30.67 cycles befor meltdown. Leave a comment telling me how much you like my reactor

You don't need that many HD's http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…=1k10101001501521s1r01r10 (cen be even better probably)

Quote from CzT

I've forgot about cocoa...
Yeah, I can't plant it for some reason...

Try during the day.

Quote from Rick

If someone makes this reactor slightly better i could ad it to the list. Then we have a 1 2-pair uranium reactor a 2 2-pairs uranium reactor and a 3 2-pairs uranium reactor XD. Atm http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…=1k10101001501521s1r11r10 has almost the same eu output but better eff.

And now ? http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…10101001511f21s1r14lflr10

Edit: YO http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…10101001511f21s1r14lflr10 12 HDs ! and you can put 2 uranium cells to free slots (117 eff EU/t)
Edit2: if you put HDs into empty slots, you wil get same cooldown time and longer run time but no more eff. EU/t
Edit3: Also i have beaten actual Eff. 3 MK II in list by amazing 4 sec and 0.02 effective EU/t ! not sure if unnoticed or ignored - http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…1k101010037ps011111101110

Quote from CzT

Number of all plants is 16 in 1.63, so does this 16 include weed?

So,
//
Wheat
Reed
Pumpkin
cocoa
Sugar cane
Melon
dandelion
rose
//
8 vanilla+
weed
tulip
black rose
venom
stickreed
cyanflower

so, 2 to go?

Can be more. Question was: How many crops are available for discovery right now? That may not include basic plants. In that case, we have 7 so far (8 with my mysterious failure).

I believe i found new one by crossing cocoa with wheat (the one i "accidentally" destroyed). It is Light green (cyanish but not flower) and it has net-like stems. I have never seen venomilia(my dear child), but it should be purple so i guess it's something new. I'm not doing any tests right now so if you want, you may try to get it.

I really have no idea how to include your results in first post. I was thinking about second post, but Alblaka got that one. (f***)
I also recently discovered new plant, but sadly, no seeds dropped... (it was probably not in final stage yet (f*** again))
I also have question about Q&A thread. Are you answering questions one by one or picking one you like ?

Quote from Lightblader

Created to increase the processing of stone without destroying it. Has a high chance of giving you the original block you mine (like silk-touch), on the disadvantage of the block being destroyed the process (10%).

This needs to be implemented in some way. (i still prefer fortune over silk touch)

Quote from CzT

Yep, it's working.

And how about GGR of that plant ? Is that average of those 2 or over average ? When you do that multiple times, will you always get same type of plant ?

Quote from CzT

About duplicating
I don't think it works like:

Display Spoiler

Does this layout duplicate plant ?
_ _ _ || P - plant
P C _ || C - Crossing block
_ _ _ || _ - empty space

This doesn't work...

Display Spoiler

Have fertilized this setup, and nothing spawned, only weed.

Also, crops can't jump between blocks.
like:
p - # - p

p - # - p

p - plant
# - double crop.
- - free space.

btw, seems like that fertilizer increases chance to drop double the seeds.

Well then, how about |P C P| where one P is plant you want to copy and second P is plant of same kind (but with different GGR). Would this work ? I didn't test much so far.

Give me some ideas, and i edit the main post

Quote from Zephyr16

I fiddled with the reactor planner for a few hours trying to come up with a good design and I came up with something that is a Mark II and has a 26 minute cooldown rate, at the cost of efficiency, it needs 6 uranium cells and outputs 120eu/t with an effective 104eu/t, I have no idea if this design was already put up by someone, but if it is then someone will catch it. I am not going to go through 6 pages and look at every reactor design so if I used someone else's by mistake I'm sorry, don't cry about it.
Here is the link. http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…10101001511f21s1r14lflr10

here, i slightly modified it http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…10101001511f21s1r14lflr10

Quote from sliderpro

Mark IV,working time 23 sec,cooling -14 sec
http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…i=1k101010114010101001019
Low working time and extremely low cooldown,what makes it much easier for redstone timing,used RP and liked it

Simplified Mark IV,greatly lowered output(-200) but working time boosted to 1.10 min
http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…i=1k101010114010101001019
Prefer first one,though

Zero-chamber breeder,2 cells charge - seems pretty nice as a beginning reactor and breeder
http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…=1p10101001501521s1r11r19
platings allow to run on 9000+ temp w/o risk

Mark IV 4 chambers,140 eu/t,can run 0,85 cycle and has 10 HD

1. im not sure why is that so, but you have set wrong breeder options, without it it looks like this (very bad) http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…i=1k101010014010101001010
2. same here http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…i=1k101010014010101001010
3. maybe take a look at this one (does the same) http://www.talonfiremage.pwp.b…=1p10101001501521s1r11r16
4. this one is ok
