What's the deal with GT rubber trees? The wild ones I found had a resin hole I could manually harvest from, but they don't seem to drop saplings naturally so I made a shears to cut the leaves and get saplings and have grown 3 more near my base, and none of them have resin holes.

You need to pray to RNGesus more often I guess. Newly planted ones will randomly have Resin Holes just like Wild ones will randomly have Resin Holes.

They have a Sapling Chance that is so low that it averages on 1 sapling drop per Tree, ofcourse averaging means 0 and 2 can happen just like 5 could happen.

Also you are NOT allowed to shear leaves off the Trees, because then the Resin Holes will stop working entirely, even if you plaster the Leaves back onto the Tree.

Yeah try going for Galena.

Sap/Resin Bag will automatically collect up to 1 stack of resin.

Hey, what's the deal with GT rubber trees? I thought the idea was that instead of using a tree tap to collect rubber from spots on the tree, you were supposed to drill into the tree and attach a sap bag that would slowly collect rubber? But it looks like the GT rubber trees have a resin hole like IC2 ones, only you just use your hands to collect the rubber.

Like IRL Rubber Trees, the Drilling is for Maple Trees

Got sick so its not much to say but here a few Plans for next year.

Is it possible that anthracite generation is broken? The only anthracite I found were 2 small hills and as replacements of mossy cobblestone in cold spruce forest biome (lignite layer was below dirt there).

If Lignite works then Anthracite works too.

Easy yes, but volume is low given that you need 9 VPO to get one vanadium, and you only have a 10% chance of getting one from black sand, which itself isn't as common as magnetite used to be.

Also this sucks: you now require a T2 buzzsaw to cut a diamond into diamond plates, which requires aluminum which these days means you can't go that route before you are well into the electrical age, so you pretty much have to find a flawless or better diamond to make your first shredder.

Yep you need that for the Shredder, and you dont need much Vanadium for anything so its fine there too.

Hey, where do you get vanadium since magnetite veins were removed? It looks like you can centrifuge a tiny amount via vanadium pentaoxide out of black sand, but there has to be a better way?

No better way afaik, Black Sand + Centrifuge seems like easy enough to pull off.

Can you check to see if the latest version has a bug with air? I can't get air into anything suddenly that worked before.

Define Bug with Air, because I dont fucking understand what kind of Air you even speak of.

Eh, if I still had the Sources of all those Mods I would have OpenSourced them anyways, so it's fine.

And I dont fucking know if things work or not on other OS-es XD

And an Update.

There is a Planetary Gear Block also called Transformer Gearbox, then there is also a Custom Gearbox to split the transformed Power to multiple directions, and Axles for longer distance Rotation Power Transfer.

Turbine -> Transformer Gearbox -> Custom Gearbox -> Machines

Beforehand sorry for my english if it would be bad but I have a question. Does steam turbine give RU to only one machine that is derectly connected to it? Can I give RU from 1 turbine to several machines, or it gives RU only to machine standing opposite it?

Turbine only to one Machine, unless you split up the Energy into 4 smaller Packets, then it can be 2 Machines (since each Machine tries to eat 2 Packets)

Ahh, yea, it seems to just be the coal dust that still says it is C2 and charcoal says that it is C. Which is odd, because if it is C, then you should be able to use it to make steel or purify it into plain carbon.

You technically could do that but it burns before that.

*Dark* ashes. The normal ashes I get nerfing; that made getting carbon way too easy. But dark ashes say they are C2 chemically, and you can use them to reduce iron... yet centrifuging them just gives normal, useless ashes.

I've been trying to figure out how to get to proper carbon/steel production since that nerf and was leaning towards making an LV dynamo and electrolyzer, and using the tiny amounts of graphite I've found to make the steel needed for that, but then it has to be galvanized, and that requires a stainless steel bathing pot, so I think that's out. So I guess it's keep making bronze until I can build 3 mixers to make sulfuric acid from the roasting oven I will use my small amount of graphite to produce the steel for, and go the sugar+acid route.

Dark Ashes dont have it either that's why I dont get why you say Dark Ashes have that Tooltip at all.

Oh the Ashes Tooltip needs to be fixed I guess. Yeah no more Carbon from Ashes anymore. Also I just checked, Ashes dont have the Carbon Tooltip anymore since ages, so where do you get that from?

As for whoever reported that Bug with the Sifting Table not working, did you travel to another Dimension right before you did that? Because I just found a Bug that I managed to fix for this Issue, and it might be related to that.

Oh the Youtube thing is the most recent addition to the whole ordeal, before Youtube entered the fray about a month ago this was really threatening everyone, go back to the older Blog Posts to see how bad it has become.

Oh it is worse, even a single missed copyright breach would cost them tons of money, imagine that for the millions of uploads a day that Youtube has, because Content ID doesn't work THAT well and also often fails at Fair Use. Even worse is that not just Youtube but EVERY SINGLE SOCIAL MEDIA SITE including small things like personal Forums like this one, would have to implement that and would still get fines to pay if copyrighted content got leaked to a European Country by their Users or even Spammers.

To make it short, the entire Free Speech Part of the Internet would basically be deleted WORLDWIDE if that Law comes to be, or Websites just start to Geoblock Europe as a whole, which HOWEVER was illegalized a few weeks ago (unsure if that Anti-Geoblocking only counts for Online Shops though).

P.S. Its about 2 Months left before it happens, if it is not stopped.

Even the Media Industry doesn't wanna have anything to do with Article 13!

Yeah Monkey Business, first Machine eats first and it eats as much as it possibly can.
