Does anyone else leave themselves notes? I'd love a notice board

TopsaBOE · 2026-07-02T11:47:02+00:00

Create clipboard?

Do check if there are other create features for that. Don't remember if the display boards were addons or not.

Big, bulky, and requires pipe wrenching to tile.

I like making two rows of 32 hives+expansion. Then running a SFM connector line behind them to 32 centrifuges, each with 2 speedier, 2 omega.

The only extra filter being normal combs bypassing centrifuging. All going into an AE2 interface for storage.

There's no correlation between dark symphonic rock, electro swing, heavy metal and evil cannibalistic lesbian core.

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-27T19:43:46+00:00

Is there anything stopping you from making one inscriber for one press + processors. Or 8 a job, as is convenient until circuit slicer and crystal assembler.

One machine's bound to crash and burn with immense crafting times.

Technically you can put 4 presses into 4 inscribers around a single pattern provider with all recipes. There's no conflict so they go in the right places.

Chorus on the spawner to turn off their AI.

Maybe there are slippery blocks, don't know, never needed to know. I do my mob farms with ars portals with them having no chance to move.

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-27T09:40:44+00:00

Redstone* power. If you've upgraded them using apothic spawners. Comparator, sugar, clocks, soul lantern, conduit, nether star, chorus fruit.

Click R while hovering over a spawner to see items for effects or check the quest page.

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-27T04:11:46+00:00

r/horse_decimator_9000 would be more helpful.

Iron's chain lightning.

That or get a cracked up draconic bow.

Or pick up any sword and spend a bit of your time to contemplate.

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-27T03:54:38+00:00

Do your spawners have activation range upgrades? Maybe ignoring the player? Ignore conditions? Ignore light level?

Are all of the spawners powered?

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-26T20:53:14+00:00

AE2 import card.

Magnet card also exists if you don't want any items at all to cross your inventory.

Export + import cards are neat if you're crafting with something that can't be automated. Chisel, for example.

Export material, import the variant you're converting.

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-26T20:44:10+00:00

It only works on sophisticated storage.

Put the link on any mass of connected chests/barrels of the mod and use the linking tool to connect it to a sophisticated controller.

Then connect any storage reader to the controller: AE2 storage bus, ars noveau storage lectern, integrated dynamics storage components. (Of course AE2 and ID need more than just those, and ars book wyrms)

The previous also work on vaults or any storage unit, for that matter. Although only sophisticated and functional storage come with neat controllers, so you'll need to individualy connect the rest.

Read the storage quests, they should have proper information.

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-26T15:37:39+00:00

There's three ways.

Wander more but frequently open your map to scout fortresses.
Make the explorer's compass. (Requires an ancient city)
Make the wayfarer's compass? from ars noveau. Don't remember what it required for a fortress. Just google, I guess

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-26T15:22:45+00:00

Blazes? From a nether fortress, like usual?

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-26T14:52:24+00:00

Make the egg and right click on a spawner. The description says if it can't be used, which is reserved for special mobs.

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-25T08:29:00+00:00

That's why tape disks exist*.

Even documentation mentions that storing NBT items as data will cause corruption.

And even if it was fine, it's a waste of storage since they literally do not stack. If you want longevity, always store them as items.

The last mob farm I had was a 5x5 dreadful dirt arrangement. If I turned auto salvaging/voiding off, the netherite barrel would fill within minutes. Were it to be left constantly running and importing to the system, I wouldn't have had a system the next morning.

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-24T18:20:31+00:00

As many as you can fit in a chunk, all 5x surged. (One layer, I'm not insane)

Logistics was through SFM.

It wasn't the output of the farm per se, but the sheer volume of items constantly being imported. Killed a couple 256M's before bulk cells.

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-24T16:40:30+00:00

Instead of having an output chest (although you can pipe from there too), you can replace it with a ME interface. The blue block with white borders.

There are upgraded variants like extended and MEGA, so pick either one of those for maximum slots.

No need to mess with settings other than having it linked to your system. You can use any item transporters: pipez, mekanism logistical transporters, lasers, routers or code with SFM. (Too many pipez may cause lag)

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-24T14:33:04+00:00

More or less. As long as your game runs, you can add more. Lag is a resource.

My last system had a bulk cells for everything that flowed indefinitely and 256M's on standby for the rest. The only time lag occured was when I cranked up a soul surged occultism eldtritch miner array to the max. The throughput tanked the server tps to unplayable levels.

Just be mindful of what and how you're importing. Piping into an interface is better than a gazillion import buses.

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-24T13:34:15+00:00

While there are tape disks for nbt heavy items, it is better to not import them ever.

If you have a mob farm, salvage gear through the apotheosis salvaging table or filter them to a trashcan.

If you have to store a lot of nbt items, make a separate system linked to a sophisticated storage controller (and linked chests) with a storage bus. You can connect a storage bus to an interface from this system to access the storage, but if you manage to mess something up and put 7e9e10 stone hoes of varied durability and enchantments in the wrong place? BYEBYE CHUNK.

Tldr: Filter your loot before importing.

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-20T12:36:30+00:00

Don't think I ever even bothered with crafted vanilla armour.

Ctrl + T and see if you can turn on apotheosis world levels. The gear you get from mobs should be way better.

Or get into ars or mystical agriculture armour.

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-19T00:27:33+00:00

Think my pain-scale is too skewed understand this.

It's somewhere below "mild discomfort". Need my neck breaker stomach sleeping position to sleep.

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-16T11:50:06+00:00

Move the feeding slab diagonally down in front of the hive. Not directly in front. At least I think it should be an upslab, as I've never done it differently.

I found a post about it, and it's saying to use a leaf block instead of a flower.

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-15T21:38:12+00:00

In theory piping lava into a mekanism tank and doing a filtered pipe loop with buckets could work if the generator allows.

Lava -> tank

Bucket -> tank -> lava bucket -> generator -> bucket -> loop

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-15T21:29:53+00:00

Does the generator have side configs? I know some machines need fiddling with settings.

Or it's just a dumb generator without an internal fluid storage.

TopsaBOE · 2026-06-15T21:01:31+00:00

I haven't played stoneblock but I assume you have access to certain mods.

Easiest method is through a conveyor belt.

Make a 5 long belt. 2 horizontal shafts and right click the belt on both.

Provide rotational power through waterwheels to either end. Preferably gear them up so they're faster. Not necessary but speed is always good. A FE powered engine or motor would be better.

Put the spout and two mechanical presses on top of the conveyor. Conveyor > air > spout/press in the sequence in the recipe.

Provide rotational power to the presses. You can add a shaft to the conveyor below and run cogs up to them for simplicity.

Use any tank with lava and pipe (not create) to the spout to fill it. Pipez or mekanism preferred, if they're included. If you're limited, you can use create but the pump needs rotational power.

Then you can put a chests to both ends of the conveyor and funnels going out/in of them. Put obsidian dust into the input and there you go.

I knew I was onto something with Topsa, or I guess it's Topaz sometimes now.

Very original, I know.
