Spoiler:
Will you (in general) listen to us if we say the server is closed or we need quiet in-game / in IRC?
Will you (in general) listen to us if we make any "recommendations" about your playstyle for reasons of server health?
Will you be patient
when
we work through bugs / defects in the modpack? ( notice I don't say "if" )
Will you refrain from asking for mod additions or updates
at any time
?
Because of the almost-role-play that will be going on in this modpack, will you follow any rules we set in place to preserve the intent of the backstory? This includes but is not limited to the following:
Reporting (and ignoring) any out-of-place biomes, blocks, or items that appear where they shouldn't appear
Using out-of-place mobs, blocks, or items in places they shouldn't be used
(e.g.: Chocobos, Big / Ancient Trees, or Botania setups in
Apocalypse
,
Turtles, Dimensional Doors, or Invasion setups in
Ancient
, etc.)
Over-using certain mods out of laziness ( yes, this is arbitrary )
(e.g.: Attained Drops, PortalGun, ComputerCraft, Archimedes' Ships)
I don't think anybody will mind if I answer any other questions here...right? I'll post some screenshots in a narrated "first look" kindof deal once I've solidified the worldgen we want for each world.
Now that I have working internet again.. and the time to play..
I am very interested in joining this when ready. I will abide by any rules put in place.
Not the pack really, the server host was having issues. I've been told they're all fixed now.
The download links will be up tonight or tomorrow, whenever I have time. Get hyped people!
So, I logged on tonight, and noticed someone had put a book to a resource center in the base me and fuzzy were sharing, and the book in the resource center goes to someone else's base. Anyone want to claim it?

Is the base in a desert with a laser drill, Big Reactor and Turbine plus a lots of DSUs? If yes, that is mine but it was made as an experiment and I decided to leave it running, anyone is welcome to any resource that the laser drill puts into the DSUs. Please though don't pull out the entire stock of a DSU. Since it was an experiment, the storage system isn't as fleshed out as I would have made it had it been an actual working system.
In short, if you pull all of any item out of a dsu, you are gonna hose the whole system. And it will happen immediately the second the DSU becomes empty.
My Uncle always use'ta say, 'You can't get no blood from a turnip.' .... He'd say the same thing about gettin' it from a stone, too.

I never said nothin' back to him. You don't want mess with no freak that's searchin' around that hard for blood.
Alright, cool. I was going to use the yellorium ingots in the DSU thinking fuzzy set it up, but when I realized the book didn't go back to our base, I immediately went and put them back.

That was the experiment. If I could make a totally automated reactor/turbine that would provide enough Yellorium to run not only itself, but provide enough to run 1 or 2 more reactors. The rest of the resources are really just a by-product of the quest for free Yellorium.

Me? No, I like the renew-ability and by products of tree->charcoal->steam setup. I did that because one of the players (can't remember who) was trying to figure out an infi-fuel setup for a Reactor/Turbine combos(s) that wasn't steam and could be totally automated and didn't need any player interaction once it was up and running.
That setup was my idea for getting that. I didn't keep real track of it after I set it up but I believe the surplus of Yellorium that rig generates could probably fuel up to four Reactors tailor made to produce just enough steam (2000mB/t) to run a max sized turbine that gives ~28K RF/t if Ludicrite is used or ~24K RF/t if Endurium is used instead.
And yes, no resources needed nearby for a Laser Drill. The name of that is misleading, it isn't a mining laser. It is a Matter Generator. Feed it enough power and it just conjures up resources.

This was for me. Haven't been on to make sure it didn't implode but it would run for long periods of time without needing anything - I think the only hang-up was my Lava Pump in the nether, or something. Don't remember.
Hey could someone please white list a friend of mine on the Vanilla and Modded Servers. He just started playing Minecraft and I wanted to help him learn the game. His user ID is zpollock.
