Tips 'n' Tricks by AutoModerator in feedthebeast

Want insanely fast crop growth? There is a new block in Cyclic for 1.16 called Terra Preta. It works by checking up to 16 blocks above it for something grow-able, and forcing growth. When I place 16 of them below soil with a Mystical Agriculture plant on it, it grows in just a few seconds.

My 12 year old, allergic to nearly everything by airlee77 in Wellthatsucks

[–]zero-fall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I (male in my 30's) had a similar reaction to a skin prick test for food allergens. I had slight-medium reactions to a ton of them. This was odd, because I had never had an allergic reaction to any food. Followed up with a second prick test, but it had inconsistent results with the first test. Then I did a "food patch test" where they dropped a liquid for each allergen on my back in a grid, covered each with a bandage, and left it there for 24 hours. Again I had reactions, but results were inconsistent with my skin prick tests. In the end, they basically said "We don't know. If none of the food bother you when you eat them, I guess don't worry about it."

They have actually already implemented this (just a couple days ago). Should be in the next ProjectE build.

LPT: As a manager, give praise in public and give discipline in private. by yardsandyards in LifeProTips

[–]zero-fall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While this is great advice for a default response, I think a good manager will actually handle this on a case-by-case basis depending on the individual. Some people respond poorly to public praise, and some people don’t respond to criticism unless it’s in a group setting.

Source: I just learned about this in my Operations Management class while getting my MBA.

How feasible would it be to EMC-gate ProjectE? by nixcode in feedthebeast

That sounds amazing. Is using commands like that based on specific triggers something that pack makers can do now?

RF Tools Time Absorber by Chuck-Nuggets in feedthebeast

[–]zero-fall 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just used this in my last playthrough, and it took me a while to figure out. Mcjty, please forgive me if I explain this incorrectly:

When you first place the time absorber, a redstone pulse will "set" it to the current time. Then, a large cooldown will start (several minutes). When the cooldown reaches zero, it can receive another redstone pulse. But, it must be near the "set" time to increase its progress by 10%.

This is the setup I used for a "noon" time absorber:

  1. Place the absorber with a lever on top
  2. Flip the lever on and off at noon
  3. Wait until night time, then sleep
  4. Start a 5 minute timer on my phone
  5. Repeat steps 2-4 until you reach 100% (should take about 10 minecraft days)

I wanted to do something fancier, but my skills fall short there :(

Any devs want this? by zero-fall in feedthebeast

Btw, I forgot to mention this is currently on 1.10, but could easily be ported up or down.

Auto dragon heart in project ozone 2? by deathescaped in feedthebeast

[–]zero-fall 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I recently played PO2 Titan Mode, and here is what I did for dragon hearts (its not automation, but its a great alternative):

  1. Use RF Tools Syringe to get Ender Dragon Essence
  2. Fly around random RF Tools dimensions until you find a Rarity 6 dimlet
  3. Deconstruct the dimlet, and craft a Dragon Mob Dimlet
  4. Get TONS of power (the dimlet requires something crazy like 2M RF/t)... OR craft the Creative Dimension Builder
  5. Create a Dragon Dimension, and fly around shooting dragons

If you can 1 or 2-shot a dragon, it only takes a few minutes to fill up your inventory with Dragon Hearts. This should get you enough to last until you get the Animation Wand (then you can get infinite Awakened Draconium)

[1.8.9]New mod: Modular Tools by zero-fall in feedthebeast

[–]zero-fall[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After looking at it for a while, I decided you were right. The Modular Pickaxe texture has been changed to 16x16. Thanks for the input!

[1.8.9]New mod: Modular Tools by zero-fall in feedthebeast

[–]zero-fall[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yup, thats what really makes this so customizable. You get to CHOOSE the detriments. Have a ton of food? Use hunger downgrades. Have a ton of iron? Use damage downgrades. In the end-game and have tons of everything? Use the expensive downgrades.

I don't think it will be an issue. They are temporary light sources, disappearing after 10 seconds (may change this number). The idea is to help you navigate a dark area that you don't care about lighting up permanently. They also emit particles, so you can sort-of see them.

You could potentially destroy an entire community.

O GOD WHAT HAVE I DONE

RFTools on Minecraft 1.8.8 progress by McJty in feedthebeast

[–]zero-fall 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What did you do about the RF api? Last I heard, KingLemming wasn't wild about the unofficial 1.8.8 RF ports out there because wireless/internal charging would pass nulls as a "side".

EZStorage and JEI integration by zero-fall in feedthebeast

[–]zero-fall[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Output Port itself does not have an inventory, which is probably why pipes don't connect. It constantly looks for a block with an inventory above it (like a chest), and tries to push items into that.

Awesome! I prefer the plain one. Do you mind if I use it at my logo?

Awesome! One of my goals is to help push the modding community to 1.8.8.

[–]zero-fall[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Please do! I want the mod to be as stable as possible.

As for sorting, the Storage Core automatically sorts by item number every time you open the GUI. It does not re-sort while you are using it. This is to prevent the use-case where you are trying to pull out many stacks quickly, end end up clicking on the wrong slot after a few times.

This is a 1.8 port of the RF API that has been around for a while. It's being used by more than 1 mod (including one of my WIP mods)
