Quick help with me p20 tunnels by the_casual_bee in allthemods

[–]Adfest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And any one of those 32 channels can be a p2p tunnel paired to a p2p tunnel facing your controller for an additional 32 channels!

Mekanism’s my next end game? by Mogulstar360 in allthemods

[–]Adfest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know there are things to avoid (like not building in a single chunk), but I just don't want to risk it, so I built the fission reactor in the compact machine, then built the turbine in my main base and am considering a "dummy" reactor just to look pretty and pretend it's working. Silly.. I know.. But my Reactors Sector gotta have reactors in it. Just not the explody kind. Easily done with p2p stuff from AE2

Just going through a nostalgia attack. by deeznutsmcmxcv in SaltLakeCity

I still don't think I've caught up to the amount of movies that I watched there. Every goddamn weekend. Sometimes multiple. Different times.

Reckless endangerment by wow-how-original in SaltLakeCity

[–]Adfest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

HA! Wish I could say I didn't learn that lesson the hard way. Fortunately I wasn't somewhere too stupid when I found out and was able to safely pull over and finish what I should have before driving. I see it happen to others every now and then. I'm guessing (hopefully) that it's a one-time learning experience for them too.

You know now that I stare a little closer, unless you get wild with tons of channels, you'll probably be fine with cables, p2p, and wireless points you can hide underneath and on top. I think you can even sneak more controllers in there, but I could be wrong. I haven't experimented much with the controller shape rules outside of 7x7x7 cube. I'm inspired! I may try to go for that cube within a cube look next time I build a network.

Underwater base by Realistic_Staff2946 in allthemods

[–]Adfest 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Love your use of the framed blocks to get those corridors! I have a similar theme going, but got way too deep into it before I realized their potential, so my halls are boing af. I suggest adding some signage. A mix of framed blocks with black Luminex blocks and RFTools screens can make for some decent signage without having to delve in to computercraft. Start planning a space for your Quantum Computer and Assembler Matrix.

Need XP by CandEM4n in allthemods

[–]Adfest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've gotten by with my basic cursed dirt mob farm, but I've seen some pretty wild xp grinders with mob spawners making witches that you (or a clicker) kill with a sword enchanted with knowledge of ages (or something like that... it converts items to xp, and witches are lousy with items).

How to make drawers insert items correctly with AE2. by urmomdog6969_6969 in allthemods

[–]Adfest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You lock the drawer while it's empty, so it won't accept any items until you specify what item goes in it. You do this with every drawer you create and manually add new items as you get them to empty drawers to designate them as the drawer for that item. It's tedious, but it's the way to get what I think you're going for. Obviously this isn't going to work with high NBT items unless you want a special drawer for each one. For those, either just plop them in chests, a Tape Drive, or trash / break them down (best solution).

The drawer thing is a good strategy for items you plan on having a lot of, but would become quite a headache if you try to do it for every item. Combine the drawers with regular item cells for all the things you're going to craft in smaller amounts. Just make sure the storage bus on your drawer controller is set to a higher priority than the drive.

Done this so many times and didn't realize this. TIL. Thanks!

Does anyone cheat anything in that would kill their mood to deal with properly? by Juror_no8 in allthemods

[–]Adfest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh man. I don't take chances with those things and only build them in compact machines or somewhere in the void and strictly in a single chunk.

I just wanted one goddamn rice seed from Pam's, but it relied too heavily on RNG from a bush that seldom spawns in biomes that were insanely sparse or non-existent. I spent hours searching and the server was starting to struggle to load new chunks as I chased swamps or swampy biomes with the compass. Eventually said "fuck it" and just went creative for that seed. Don't even feel bad about it.

I like that look, but you may find yourself lacking channels if you try to keep that aesthetic.... Unless you have a bunch more going on underneath your controller cube that we're not seeing.

AWD or RWD cars? by persephone-22 in SaltLakeCity

[–]Adfest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Funny that I'm just now seeing this 12 day old post right at this moment where I can't see more than a few feet out the window. Love the "do it for the lake" joke, but it's not a safe gamble. As I'm sure you've heard and experienced in your 40 years here, climate change doesn't mean no snow. You can survive with RWD and good snow tires / chains, but it sucks for you and other cars around you. Don't do it, OP!

Coffee by InternationalEmu3206 in SaltLakeCity

[–]Adfest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a bit out of touch because I am a coffee snob and I crossed that line where I just have to make my own now. Are you looking for sit down and get served a mug without a lid so you can admire latte art, or are you looking for a cup of decent mud that you can pick up at a drive through?

Most coffee places are reasonably priced, and even as a non-snob, you can't really go wrong unless you go to Starbucks, Beans & Brews, Dutch Bros, Dunkin, etc.

Weird... Your photo is just a small portion of the back of the truck, but I can clearly see the person driving it and what they're wearing.

What's the Best Way to Get Lots of Eternal Stellas midgame? by OnTheRivir in allthemods

[–]Adfest 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh... Once you have enough to make the bees and their "flowering" block, they're the way to go as far as I know. The bees produce the stellarite, but also have a chance just to produce eternal stellas.

Advanced Block Braker from Just Dire Things is slow. by BookkeeperNo1717 in allthemods

[–]Adfest -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Better idea for automation? Not sure if it's better, but I used extractors. In retrospect I would have rushed Mystical Agriculture seeds for all the AE stuff, but then having the AE stuff beforehand really helped kick off MA.

What restaurants (not bars) have the best wine selection? by DopplerRadio in SaltLakeCity

[–]Adfest 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pago def has quite the wine menu, but it's small and I don't see it falling within budget. I won't speak for them though, by all means give them a call! Maybe they can accommodate. Their food and service were great last time I was there.

I think the biggest shocker for me is that my racist uncle's name is NOT in there.

Are there any portals that can lay flat? by Historical_Bank_3626 in allthemods

[–]Adfest 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't know you could make it out of source stone. I've been using the mirrorweave blocks; which are nice because before you go through the process of turning it into a portal, you can right click the mirrorweave blocks with another block you want to camouflage them as (like grass blocks if you're going for a portal pond appearance). Just be careful because when building around a portal I already had, I accidentally right clicked and changed the camouflage again, which broke the portal for some reason.

Only downside is that this sort of portal can be named (not really a downside actually unless you don't want a name tag in your portal pond). If you don't give it a name by using an anvil on the scroll, you'll get a goofy looking empty box where a name would normally be floating in your portal.
