You mean between the four Blockbreakers? Of course they do. And its reducing Lag even more!

It won't work. Since cobblestone comes from blockbreakers one by one then the relay will output it one by one.

Thank you for your suggestions! I have built a new UU-matter factory according to them. It is less laggy then my original and far more compact although a little bit slower.

I have tried to build MISEL mk-II but utterly failed. What am I doing wrong?

I have built a UU-matter factory with 8 recyclers but it lags the game despite that I used Redpower pipes. Can you suggest anything else to reduce lag?

I am new to IC. Looking at a list of good reactor designs I am wondering why there are designs with a short running time, because it seems their effective eu/t and efficiency are not a lot higher (and sometimes even lower) than with an infinite cycle. So what am I missing?

What can I use this addon beside for gates? My imagination is empty .

Ok, I have built the second version with 4 recyclers and a GregoriusT's MISEL (thank you, good sir! *tips his hat*). I experimented a bit and learned that it takes around 2,25 seconds for 1 recycler operation, which I used for cobble generator timer. The whole factory produces 1 scrap in about 4,2 seconds, and with this scrap production a Mass Fabricator consumes around 40 eu/t, so if there is a Nuclear Reactor with 80 eu/t it just needs to add 4 more recyclers. So ... what do you think?

I have never played with Redpower until now, so I am not very confident in my automatic Matter Factory. I have used 2 cobble generators and 2 recyclers to accomodate 32 eu/t just for example, clearly in a survival world it should depend on Nuclear Reactor output. I just want to understand whether it is good or it can be improved. Thanks!

In addition to that you could just use a MFE. 600k is way more than enough for four miners with diamond drills and OV scanners, and you could fill it with lappacks which don't cost diamonds.

When I was running my Miner today it usually used about 40 % of a Lapotron Crystal during one run if I remember correctly. Or maybe there were a lot of ore under my base ...

Its kind of cheating in my opinion but if your in SSP i suggest going to the config and enabling lapatrons in miners, it cuts down on the tediousness of moving mining rigs.

Thank you. Maybe I will do exactly that. Ultimately the game should be fun, not tedious. Building a whole Nuclear Reactor from scratch, while hard, is fun. Moving the Miner every time is not hard, just, maybe, a bit tedious. Though, maybe, this is done by Alblaka for a reason and shouldn't be changed *shrugs*.

So it is not necessary to use BatBox? And MFSU, MV Tranformer, LV Transformer and Miner can be connected without cables?

I am new to the IC. I have just built my first miner and I am confused: is it supposed to be so bulky or I do not know something?

IC wiki says that composite armor vest is more durable than an iron armor chestplate. How about a bronze chestplate, is composite armor vest more durable than it too?

Thank you!

I need to copy my base with a mine from the old world to a new one (the seed and base coords will be the same). Can MCEdit copy IC ores and blocks to a new world, can he inadvertantly remove IC ores from the schematic or remove IC ores from a new world? I just had a most unpleasant experience when I mistakenly entered my IC world in a configuration without any mods and Minecraft deleted nearly all IC ore from the world.

Hello! I'm new to Industrial Craft mod, so I am looking for a good newb friendly "Let's play" video series on Industrial Craft, with an emphasis on IC and BuildCraft, without 101 mods installed. There are a lot of videos, I know, that's why I am wary of even approaching them since I assume a lot of them are not very good, and a lot of them use a bunch of mods I do not need. I hope you can help me.

Cheers!
