Would anyone like to have this mod added to the pack?
Super Circuit Maker
I have been trying to automate a few things and there is very little ways to interact with redstone in a small environment in this pack so far. Also, many of the other redstone mods are not updated to 1.10 (redpower, minefatory, etc.)
There is a block mixer from Malisis that will halve 2 different blocks and splice them together. I used laboratory chisel blocks with glowstone so my Power plant has lab style blocks that glow. Works quite well and should work with jack 'o lanterns.Quote:

Use it with the marble chisel blocks in the tink shop and it looks like its 4 blocks one 1, so test it before making a ton of them :)
That's me. Sorry :BQuote:

Thanks for the block mixer advice and precaution, will try asap.
Hehe, that's fun.
Lapis is quite rare as ore, and since your machines will constantly use it, I better:
- Make few more Mystical Agriculture Lapis seeds to speedup essence income.
We have quite enough inferium essence for this already.- Add lapis crafting recipe to the grid
- Replace few ender crops with lapis crops, since the amount of ender essence is near 1k already and I don't know how big area the Farmer services
- Similarly craft few glowstone crops, since the glowstone is not renewable afaik, and pretty rare in Nether even for quarries
Unless Mupje has other plans for the essence and vetoes this (M.A. is her project).
[+] Programmed Mystical Agriculture seeds and essence all tiers, planted 4 lapis and 4 glwstone crops, 4 endercrops left. Added lapis and glowdust crafting receipes from essences into the storagr.
[++] Thanks, the block mixer is quite awesome, blocks can be placed any side in any direction. Does not on grass tho. But painter does.
Painter also works on brownstone slabs, but does not allow to place them with slab half up. But the slabs on borders can be used for lighting the roads.
Is there any way we can automate the shearing and collection of colored sheep wool in the "Rainbow farm"? Perhaps something similar to the farmer?
The first reactor is finished and integrated into our power network.
Spoiler!
The reactor is run by a computer program that monitors power usage and increases power production to match the required amount being needed. When no power is needed by our network the reactor goes into standby and uses no fuel. The reactor's maximum power output is 17,928.49 RF/t. Currently, there is no liquid ender, gelid cryotheum, or destabilized redstone. Our only somewhat decent options for the reactor are diamond blocks and carbon blocks. Since we don't have a couple of thousand diamonds lying around, we're using carbon blocks. I'm sure we can make do with 18 KRF/t in the mean time.
Tier 4 mek plant is working, next step tier 5 =P
add ore to the chemical injector and take the 4 dust from the enrichment chamber.
Tier 5 mek plant is working, next step upgrading the system :)
I've finished the farm buildings to the north of the cooling towers. Mupje is going to move the farm stuff there and expand.
I've added a recipe to make industrial IC2 diamonds which can be turned into a diamond block. It costs 1 coal and 9.000.000EU.
Awesome :)Quote:

If you look at the IC2 basement you can see the setup I've made to keep IC2 metals in stock. You can probably make something similar for Mekanism metals. That way you can have the benefits of insta-crafting because everything you need is in stock while keeping enough ores in reserve for the other tech mods to use.
The plant will have walls, and a roof :), next on the list, wanted to get in worked out first :), like the tink shop, wanted to get it functional then try to make it look good =P
Mystical Agriculture can also provide tons of diamonds.
I managed to obtain another 24 bat wings from my custom mob spawner and with those I made another 4 "Wings of the Bats" rings for everyone. Simply having the ring in your inventory will enable you to fly like creative mode.
They can be found at the front of the power plant in the crystal chest.
Spoiler!
Thanks for the wings, work great in tandem with the hook :)
Is there a way to speed up the steel process in ic2?
Mek steel is pretty fast with the upgraded machine, and there is a machine that turns mek steel to ic2 steel, and can be set to auto craft it, would that possible help, for any recipes that need ic2 steel?
If its to much of a hassle and will mess up stuff i will change out the patterns manually when doing mek upgrades and with no one else on using ic2 steel.
The IC2 steel recipe may not be altered since that could cause a nuclear meltdown later down the road. Melt down meaning a nuke going off :)
I've set up 2 dedicated IC2 blast furnaces which have been producing steel for the past couple of days. There's a crystal chest in the floor of the IC2 factory which holds the current output. Right now I'm not using the steel to make turbines so you can grab from the chest. How much do you need?
There is no objection to making a system that checks how much IC2 steel there is and, if it's getting low, fires up a Mekanism machine to produce more. As long as it's not an auto-crafting recipe in the Refined Storage system. I did this for various ingots and plates in the IC2 factory. Look in the basement to see how I did it. It involves using a RS detector which outputs a redstone signal when item X is below value Y. Connected to the detector is an exporter bus which is set to ONLY work if it receives a redstone signal. The export bus exports the item you want to process. If there's a recipe involved that has more than one ingredient, use more detectors and export buses.You can even set it to craft recipes using an Engineers Workbench (also in the IC2 factory basement).
I would love to see a fully features Mekanism factory that has all of the Mekanism machines and recipes available for auto-crafting. I'm working on getting everybody a full set of Gravisuite armor which basically enables creative flight and godlike status. Once done we'll all go for a swim in the nether :) Anyway, Gravisuite or not, I'd still like to get my hands on one of those fancy Mekanism jet packs. And we could really use a bunch of Digital Miners since they are easier to deploy than the IC2 Advanced Miners and we still need a ton of lapis and glowstone.
Oh, I didn't mention we managed to get on top of the Nether yet. So that happened yesterday. I used a ladder and enderpearl to glitch myself through the roof. Unfortunately I wasn't able to breach the ceiling with a dark oak tree by forcing it to grow with bonemeal and having it's roots replace the bedrock. But fortunately Jiro was around to place an elevator block below where I place one on top. Next time I'm placing one below first before glitching through the roof :B So now there is an elevator in the little house next to the Nether portal that leads up on top of the roof. We could really use some digital miners there to get glowstone and quartz without having to deal with tons of lava. The IC2 advanced miner needs a pump to remove lava or else it'll stall.
I'm talking resource wise of course since obviously some things are way bigger size wise :) The amount of resources required for 7 sets of Gravisuite armor and Vajra is staggering. I don't have the exact numbers since there's no easy way to get a complete list. But if you should order (and then cancel) the items below you'll see what I mean.
Right now I think we have 7 active players on the server. I really hope I didn't forget about anyone. If so, please let me know and I'll fashion another set. I've made sets for: Mupje, DOM, Heptagon, Jiro, RX and Dourne. Should more players wish to join us then I'll make more of course.
Below you can find the accumulation of our server's wealth:

You guys can pick up a set in the IC2 factory at your leisure.
The suites and vajras are charged and ready to go. Just be careful with the vajra since they will eat through any blocks like butter. You may also want to change/disable the off-hand key. By default that's F and it conflicts with the flight key. Also keep in mind that you can toggle flight mode while flying with M. The hover mode gives you creative flight. The suit makes you invulnerable to pretty much anything. So we should definitely go swimming in the nether soon :)
*edit*
I forgot to mention about the power requirements for the suits. The helmets have a built in ultimate hybrid solar panel which will keep your suit charged during the day and outside. If you need more power then you can use the MFSU chargepads in the floor. There are currently two sets, one in the IC2 factory and one in the Refined Storage building. When you stand on the pads you can activate 4 at the same time. Just move over them a little and stand in the center of 4.
It looks like the way the suit drains has changed. In the past it would drain quite quickly if you had the suit turned on (F on/off). Now it doesn't seem to drain (as much?) unless you actually fly around. It's good practise to stop/start flying by hitting the F key. This will also preserve the flight mode (M on/off) of the suit. If you are in hover mode and you land, it will turn off hover mode. Meaning the next time you want to fly you'll have to enable hover mode again if you want that.
Mek update
Elite Infusing Factory with full upgrades, Elite Smelting Factory with full upgrades, Elite Crushing Factory with full upgrades.
Precision Sawmill with full upgrades (This can make rubber plus wood with rubber wood).
Osmium Compressor with full upgrades.
Digital miner is now craftable, it can have 8 speed and 8 energy upgrade (also craftable) and anchor upgrade.
There is one set up on the top of the nether, pulling everything but cobblestone and netherrack.
* forgot to add cobblestone at first, so it killed a bridge.
The one in the nether is fully upgraded.
Wasn't there a rubber tree set up at the farm??
Would a rubber tree set up and the saw mill be good to make rubber on request?
The oredictionary machine can make ic2 steel on demand from mek steel, though the mek steel would need to be in the refined system to be produced. If a set up was made to keep x amount of ic2 steel in stock, could the mek steel recipie stay in the system?
Will need a lot of steel to upgrade the rest of the mek factory, and with the slow process of ic2, mek steel is a lot faster.
Though its not a big deal to put the steel recipe into the system temporarily and make a few stacks then take it out, and work off the stacks. Also the plate machine (to keep x amount of plates in stock) would snag the steel sometimes before the system could grab it for crafting =P. which wasn't a big deal after making a bunch of ic2 steel from mek steel :).
There is also a digital miner in the mining world fully upgraded.
Awesome!
Are all the Mekanism ores, metals, items that can be made with those machines added as auto craftable?
Mekanism steel and IC2 steel are two different things. If you add a recipe for Mekanism steel that can be auto crafted then there shouldn't be any conflicts. I'm assuming the RS system will look for the specified item (Mek steel ingot) before doing ore dictionary lookup (any steel ingot). Just try it and find out.
Also try setting up a system to keep things in stock like I did in the IC2 factory basement. Check if plates are in stock, if not put Mekanism ingredients in a dedicated ender chest and have it output into a dedicated Mekanism machine. I'd suggest going with ores, output dust into the next machine, ingots into the next, plates into the next. This will create the need for more machines. But that's what factories are for.
There's already a crystal chest full of IC2 steel in the IC2 factory floor in the back. So if you want to upgrade now, you can. Otherwise, add the recipe and make Mek steel :)
Glad to see we have digital miners now. The IC2 advanced miners got a ton of resources for us, but they weren't very user-friendly.
Everything is not in auto crafting yet, as I do upgrades I add what ever is needed to auto crafting. Ill add them as I upgrade the factory.
The mek steel is in the auto craft system now.
Ill add the stocking items to the factory as I go.
Do you notice the insulated copper wire (think that's the name) the one that uses wire and rubber, being buggy? Is there something pulling those to make something? Even with the recipes for mek stuff without ore dictionary and correct mek parts it still makes them with ic2 chips, and those insulated wires always seem to bug out, once hand made and put into the system it finishes. It does pull the correct chips if they are already made, may add those to the stock item set up.
Digital miners are sweet, that, flux node, and ender chest, and your all set.
Setting up the filters is pretty straight forward too.
As far as I know nothing is keeping the copper cable in stock. You can see all the stuff I keep in stock in the IC2 basement. It's mainly ingots and plates of various metals.
If by buggy you mean that the crafting seems to hang at points for no apparent reason, that's a known issue with Refined Storage. Has nothing to do with IC2. I've already had to cancel and restart a ton of crafting operations, especially the ones that have a ton of steps to take to completion. So if you ordered something from RS and it hangs, just cancel and order again. It'll continue where it left off.
Logged on today to find my mystical agriculture diamond seeds and sheep seeds are no longer in the crop plots. I had a few setup in an automated Actually Additions farm setup to auto-propagate over time so I could get more. Thing is, the essence was collected and is in the computer, the seeds are not. Does anybody have something siphoning seeds somewhere or know where my seeds might be? They're rather expensive to half to keep crafting all of the time.
On another note, the brown sheep in the Rainbow Farm are missing. All the other sheep are fine. Does anybody know what happened? It's a bit of a pain to get the sheep in their slots.
Not sure what happen with the seeds or sheep.
Is anyone setting up an opencomputers robot shop? If not can that be added to my list :)
Don't know about seeds or sheep. I visited your farmhouse approx. yesterday and there was one single crop on each of two plots.Quote:

Are you sure Mystical Agriculture works with the AA farm? In the past it has always been a problem to automate those kinds of plants. The only reliable ways to do it so far have been a Computercraft Turtle and an Extra NCPs npc which we are currently using.
DOM can set up more NPCs if you need them. However I suggest we move the farming stuff to the farm. There are two large plots around the barn. One is for bees/trees, the other can be used for plant farming. Just ask Mupje about it or just set up a bunch of plots in a way that makes sense, I'm sure she won't mind :)
RX, I'll add the project to the list. I think DOM wanted to do something similar. If that's true, he can add himself to the project ;)
The opening post has been updated. Quite a few projects have been finished. Great job everybody!
All the machines that are at the mek plant are upgraded and max tiered, found out that you can upgrade the machines in place.
Now to configure the plant for the bottle necks in the processing.
Jiro, i watched the plants and a few times it picked the plant but did not pick the seeds up. a vacuum chest or 2 and some hoppers back to the planter may fix this? it may be from when there are 2 seeds instead of 1.
Added vacuum chest to the area, it doesn't mess up the farmer, watched it work, so if there are any seeds in the vacuum chest, its the ones that didn't get picked up by the farmer.
Oh, if you don't mind, could you add me to the whitelist on AMP server, please :)
I've watched the AA farmer operate with MA seeds just fine over the course of a day so that works. I wouldn't mind moving it but bear in mind I do need a lot more than one or two diamond crop seeds being grown. I need 59k diamond essence to get enough diamonds for a single reactor.Quote:

So far it works with ingot and dusts, ie need io dust, set filter and any dust matching it changes, mek, ic2, forestry, etc.
Btw, jiro, checked out the farm, no plants, and 11 seeds in the chest, put them back into the farmer, maybe hook it up to the farmer with hopper pipe or hop/ender set up?
Checked Jiro's farm. 0 crops, 20 seeds in vacuum chest, 3x64+14 diam essence in farmer, + 4 fretilizer ess. Replanted, put essence to grid.
Anyone seen Bamboo Forest on te server? Spent few hours, no luck.
I don't know if there's a bamboo forest anywhere. Please check Dynmap and stay inside the pre-generated area. Generating new chunks kills server performance.
DynMap doesnt help much, I don't know how it looks from top. Checked several places which looked like - miss.Quote:

Play it in single player and you can fly around and search without affecting the server :)
Checked the farm, 2 plants in the field, and 39 seeds in the chest.
Thanks for checking up on it. Seems like it's happening when folks leave the area, even though it has a chunk loader right there. We can move those seeds to one of the new farm setups J was talking about to give it a head start in collecting and in the mean time I'll look into the industrial diamond alternative.Quote:

As for industrial diamonds, I'll add a couple of dedicated molecular transformer machines. How many diamonds do you need again?Code:level-seed=walk da plank
I'm also new to AMP and I'm not whitelisted on AMP serrver at the moment.Quote:

:snow:
Added galros to the whitelist and added tot the dino breeding project. Someone should really update the whitelist on the VIP servers :B
Industrial diamonds are being mass produced now and I've also set the IC2 steel to be imported directly into the RS system.
It looks like someone forgot to take their Vajra when they picked up the most right Gravisuite armor from the IC2 factory. Don't loose the Vajra, this weapon is your life >_<
Around 6.5k diamonds per reactor, so 13k total.Quote:
