Since you are on Mass Fabricator tweaks can they be made to somehow take extreme voltage either stock, with upgrades or an (even more) advanced machine, I wanna see how fast I can fill a chest with matter with 4 EV cables into it.

So is there anything I can do to make stuff appear more correctly?

Just wondering if anyone has or knows how to make the files for zeppelin Mod that make IC2 blocks appear while they are an entity, I'm a bit tired of my mining ship turning into flowers when it moves.

I understand it would be big and difficult but I was thinking more of something you built out of iron scaffolding and added a "crane controller block" that would place the cabin that you sit in when completed it acted like a single block like the coke oven from Railcraft and the scaffolding would turn yellow to tell you it was a crane.

I do understand this probably won't make it in anytime soon but it's a suggestion for the future (Industrial Construction...?)

Ever been trying to build a tall building and forget to make scaffolding or run out of iron or sticks or is the only thing you do is "pick things up and put them down" well here's the thing for you.

Cranes

Its pretty much what you would think a type of large machine to pick things (blocks specifically) up, move them a bit and, put them down.
I purpose two cranes: A tower and a gantry crane both need EUs supplied at least at a constant 512 Eu/t with maybe like a million storage and be made with some combination of iron scaffolding and cables made somehow and pick X amounts of blocks off of scaffolding and can move and place them with cables and similar items but the difference is range Tower Cranes range is more of a circle (which as I'm typing this would make it difficult to place blocks unless they stayed oriented the same way) and gantry more of a rectangle (useful for bridges or roads)

this is just a rough idea but i'm just throwing it out to see if it would be remotely possible although the tower crane would look cooler the gantry would be more practical and minecrafty.

When i use indusrialcraft i try to use railcraft too and recently they added cart linking so you can make cart trains but the only engine is the powered mine cart that lacks control i suggest using generators and circuits and levers to make controllable ones like so:

= Mine cart

the recipe is like all mine carts just stick above mine cart but that cart runs on fuel only but is controllable this one will also use EU's:

the generator can burn any fuel normally but also run off batteries and maybe liked power storage carts

also other generators may be used like solar, geothermal, water, wind (generate EU's from speed) and, nuclear they can run of their respective fuel and batteries or linked power carts

the controllable just needs to be a simple GUI with the fuel with a start/stop button and a reverse button

yes this probably belongs over at railcraft but I started here and will post it over there
