So uh, is it cheating to get myself a steel pick head solely for that blightfall quest if I make something able to mine stuff it could mine? I mean I ended up making damascus steel and then found platinum so the idea of making the drat thing at this point is a little pointless. Also kind of having a pain trying to work out how to make an invisibility potion for a magic quest in it. Netherwort is required, right?

McFrugal posted:Well I mean it's not that hard to get steel. Netherwart is pretty easy to get too if you explore a bit. Do the scouting quests! Seriously, do them, it's important. Ok then. Would you recommend just digging a tunnel using a hammer so I can avoid mobs or I am being way to danger avoidant by thinking to do that? Really loving the mod pack now that I've managed to avoid cheating. Takes longer but the progression seems more satisfying.

Did I stumble into Night Vale or something? Oh uh, you know what's embarrassing? First time I played Blightfall I missed the door on top of the obsidian tower. Really happy I don't need to make my own altar now. There any other similar things I might have missed? Did find the glacier one and plan to do all the infusion stuff there in the middle of nowhere.

Serifina posted:I released a pack on Curse for anyone who might be interested, a simple magic pack for 1.8.9 called Sky Magic. It defaults to a Garden of Glass skyblock setup but if you want to play in a normal Overworld just disable the Garden of Glass and Crafting Tweaks files. It has Blood Magic, Botania, Intangible, Psi, and Thaumcraft so there's no shortage of stuff to play with. What's Garden of Grass? Playing around with magic in a skyblock sounds cool.

And in less stupid packs I have a question about FTB Mage Quest. Is the blood magic part only next to go upto the second orb? It didn't even cover rituals at all and that seemed a little weird.

neogeo0823 posted:The mod comes with that book that tells you how to build everything. If you want an "ultimate goal" of sorts, aim for having a farm that produces enough biodiesel to run multiple excavators, excavating multiple chunks, feeding the ores into an arc smelter. Have the whole area cordoned off with electrified barbed wire and guarded by turrets that automatically reload with ammo that gets automatically made. I can tell you now that everything short of the auto-ammo thing is completely doable, and that I just haven't tried to automate ammo production yet, but it should be doable as well. Found the book in Skyfactory 3, thanks! Made an improved blast furnace so I can make steel to make my autoheavy sieve to get iron faster

Seriously, I've seen what the cubes can do when made to be fun. Why does turning off everything but the biodome still leave the possibility of your base blowing to? Is it hard coded in? I'd kill to have explanations for what each thing on the config is so I could turn off the bad parts and have them just be random rewards or at worst slightly funny.

Not sure what mod it was but Skyfactory 3 had a giant chest mod. Just make a big hollow cube and it'll have the storage as if every block was a chest I think. Just some big megachest.

Tyty posted:I'm looking at the various options for tree farms and I saw what goes into a Forestry farm these days. Why do I need more than 180 tin and to make a giant multiblock structure for an automated tree farm? Or an automated anything farm? So many other mods can do it for way cheaper. Style? Realism? I kind of like big multiblock machines or stuff like the Thaumcraft infusion altar.

Which mod in CotT is letting mobs attack through walls? A creeper that can not see me and has never seen me should not blow up and a zombie should not be able to hit me from behind a wall.

God bee lining turrets was a great idea. Just keep them powered and full of cobble and 3 will take care of near anything. CotT is fun when it gets rolling and I love the Ender sword a loot bag had. Any way to recharge it for the bonus damage?

Someone earlier suggested Pickle Pack Magical 3 and I've been having a blast. Haven't gotten deep into Thaumcraft or Botania and instead have mostly just been trying to do Twilight Forest stuff. Had to go to the swamp to kill the Minoshroom under the hollow hill so I could head to the fire swamp to murder the hydra so I could pierce the magic darkness of the dark forest and at this point the quests have had me make a pickaxe that does extra damage to armored targets using stuff from the fortress some goblins took over. Next, some ghast in a tower! Wooh. I have to ask, there a mod to make it so for example if you hover over an aspect in thaumcraft it tells you which aspects make it up? Would cut down on the intermediate steps taking so long if I didn't have to reference a cheat sheet so much.

Been loving The Simple Life 2 except for one of the early quests being borked. For some reason the quest to hunt 4 skeletons, spiders, zombies, and creepers doesn't want to work and I had to edit the quest to be just a checkmark one instead. Boo. Anyone got advice for finding constellations in Astral Sorcery?

That's a real shame -- it's the one mod I think I've consistently played longer than any other, unless you count Inventory Tweaks and stuff like JEI.

One mod that did nothing but change research orders annihilated performance, though the metrics to measure it aren't as good over there. I really have to question how such a mod would tank performance. Or why it even got released in that state.
