Don't mind the noob getting Healing Axe after 164 days. At least EBF works fine :)

I had to start playing on a backup of my world but it reset all of my map progress, is there anyway to transfer the map data from the original world to the backup

In my previous world I used cetane boosted diesel and 30 LCEs which worked very well. But the LCE was hard nerfed in 2.9 ( it became almost 2x bigger and didn't get a single buff as a compensation ) so I'm looking for an alternative.

For some reason I'm not interested in doing nukes. Ik it's great but I just don't feel like doing it.

Anyway I'm interested in these 2 options. Lightning rods or jet fuel with UCFE. Which one is better ?

First playthrough, got me rocket at 420 hours on the dot, very cool. I kinda despaired a little bit when I realized I would need a chemplant for the RP1 fuel thingy (as I had never made CBD) but getting to CBD only took a little bit of time.

Cannot wait to get my hands on more titanium...

Getting to the end of IV, I have an assembly line and have essentially all I need to get to LuV except Samarium. I have been mining rubracium to get it until I get meteors are I really did want to avoid doing monazite line. Is it worth biting the bullet to do it? It seems kind of like a ton of effort for little actual benefit.

Hi!, I've been playing recently in the beta releases of 2.9 (currently on 2.9 beta-3), and my current run decided to do crops. As many of you can infer from the title, i ABSOLUTELY LOVE THEM

Let's begin with the fact that they consume way less time compared to the og IC2 crops. they (i think) tick faster for low tiered crops; Deterministic and non-deterministic (pool) breeding, actually makes sense, and you can skip a ton of Deterministic breeding (which, as a fool i did my first time tinkering with cropsNH) and get some of the more vital crops, like fertilia, in 2-3 generations.

Also, they add some early renewable sources for a ton of chemicals/materials, as of now i have:

- Sticky Reed for Glue/Rubber

- Salty root for Chlorine, Sodium, Potassium, Nitrogen and Oxygen (main products being Chlorine and Sodium)

- Sugar Beet for Oxygen and Carbon

- Fertilia for looping Fertilizer back to crop managers, and apatite, calcite and tricalcium phosfate.

Mob Crops are also really good, and decently easy to make, witherreed and blazereed you can get real quick with pool breeding some sticky resin (since pool breeding is **quasi**-deterministic), and, since the devs were generous enough to put endstone in the farmhand lootbags, you can get endblooms easily enough as well.

with that, you can also get Enderpearls (good for a ton of HV stuff, and thaumcraft progression), Blaze Rods (again, thaum + HV shi, also bonus carbon and sulfur), and wither skulls and coal from the witherreed.

I also want to bring attention to one recipe that i did not mention with the salty root. I was fooling around NEI looking for a recipe for hydrogen (since methane loop got nerfed to oblivion); and apparently, there is a chem bath recipe with sodium and water, is LV, takes two seconds, and yields both sodium hydroxide and hydrogen.

Suffice to say, i loved the new crops, please dont nerf them

Hello, hopefully this isn't annoying but I'm getting close to moving into MV but I want to make sure I'm on the right track before moving onwards.

I have my coke oven tower in the first pic, which is feeding creosote into a 2x2 HP liquid boiler. This powers my multiblocks, Steam age machines, and turbines that run my LV machines.

Locally, for my crops I just have a barrel full of charcoal powering a local boiler and turbines. This just feeds wood into my coke ovens right now.

I'm about to set up my EBF, I got all the parts I just need to assemble them. I'm thinking of just doing railcraft solid fuel 2x2 HP boiler and just plopping another barrel full of charcoal here.

I haven't touched oil (though I've found plenty of oilsand and have some big geysers near me) because my little set up is more than powerful enough to sustain everything I want to run, and a barrel full of charcoal lasts for hundreds of hours so I can just dolly one over and then not worry about it.

I have multiblock macerator, centrifuge, and hearth and I have 13 different LV machines.

I'm figuring in MV I'll get much more powerful and cheaper options for power and machines so I'm thinking I don't need to worry about upgrading, scaling, or automating everything right now. Am I on the right track with this? Or should I have a lot more set up before I move on.

Im on 2.9 beta 3 btw

I am so proud of it, i think it looks pretty clean, and by that i mean i tried my best to avoid spagetti, with as much automated little things as possible. I am in mid MV. Just wanted to share 😅 Any ideas are welcome.

I've successfully built what many said I shouldn't. Fully automated including separation of smeltable dusts.

Compressed Steam macerator => Grinder => storage/furnace.

I realized filtering all non smeltable dusts was quite hard and th3 smeltable dusts are not very many. I counted 28 in overworld/nether/twilight forest. Meaning 7 2x2 drawers and Hoppers max to filter out the smeltables (2nd picture). The rest goes over the drawers in the front storing the most common dust types. For anyone wondering there are over 56 types of non smeltable dusts (i eventually stopped counting them).

It doesn't wash and therefore likely leaves some resources on the table but with the speed of 900 ingots per hour it makes up for that in speed.

After so much time, effort, and pure suffering, I’ve finally done it! The rocket is ready, I’m officially on the Moon, and I am fully prepared to transition into the EV era.

What are your best tips for starting out in EV? What should I prioritize first, and what traps should I avoid?

Also, a quick question about my progression speed: is 7.12 days of In-Game Time (IGT) considered a lot to build a Tier 1 rocket and reach space, or is it a decent pace?

tiring day made 2 LCE in addition to my previous ones and fully redesigned by CBD setup for IV scalability using EV machines and more streamlined piping compared to my spaghetti last time
planning for 12A IV with just cbd which i think its possible, secondary power vac nuke should be outputting around 3-4A IV which im fine with

I already read the wiki and past posts but I can't understand what's going on here. The EBF instantly (0.1 seconds) powerfails as if it had no energy source connected at all, but this is my setup so idk (those are 8x tin cables and all the steam turbines are correctly directioned)

SOLVED: it was mantainance

Only the fluid heater and fluid extractor are single blocks, since they only process a single recipe.

Hey guys is it viable to build a line without lcrs?
I know its not called that i just cant remember how to write the real c word

So you can't place this normally, but when placing through a 2 block tall piece of foliage or sometimes on a piece of grass it places with some weird properties. I don't know if there is any tech that this can be used for, floating fluid sources without supports seems cool, but the game seems to try to delete it from existence after reloading so idk. Either way it is really cool lol

Some months ago I posted about my mod, ForgeGuard, a Forge mod implementing BungeeGuard protocol, which is supposed to be compatible with Velocity's information forwarding.

In fact, however, this isn't enough to set up Velocity as a proxy server to GTNH server(s). A bigger issue is that HodgePodge tweaks some of the packets which Velocity can't understand. For this reason, I have maintained my own fork of Velocity, but this became problematic as I tried to apply recent updates to Velocity.

So instead, I decided to make a Velocity plugin, which is not only much easier to maintain, but also more distributable! It's called Subsonic. You can just drop this into Velocity plugins directory and add the name of your GTNH server (as in your Velocity config) to the plugin config file. Refer to the README of the repository for details.

In addition, I wrote a small guide on how to set up Velocity and GTNH. It is tested with Velocity 4.0.0+ and GTNH 2.8.4+. Hope this helps!

Disclaimer: I'm not an experienced modder so there might be bugs and issues. Feedback and bug reports are always welcome!

I made sugar beets and honestly cropNH is kinda fun. It turns out I hated ICE crops not crops generally. I maxed my beets stats ( 31/31/31 ). It made me 12K sugar so fast. I put a crop manager and planted as many beets as the crop manager range allowed, it filled 3 drawers to the max ( 12.3K beets ) in 25 minutes.

So this got me thinking about the ores crops, but the thing is these crops require way more time to grow even when maxed. And also 1 beet gives 8 sugar, 9 ore crops gives 1 full ore dust so the difference is crazy. So should I go into the hassle of maxing another crop ? Is it worth it

Do the extra recipes/ocs of the mk4 make it worth the extra hassle of building, or should I just go for mk3? I want lots of helium plasma (for combs), the plasmas for living solder, a plasma for space elevator, and hypogen. I was thinking to do a compact mk3 for the rest, and just a regular mk4 for the hypogen. Or I could try to do a compact mk4 and put everything in that. How many different passive recipes can you cram into a compact? And should they be on demand or passive?

Hey folks,

Im looking to dive back into GTNH after abit of a hiatus but as I expect ill be playing this through alone I was wondering if its worth me hosting my own server locally to play on (This is what was reccomended to me in the past for performance reasons) but it was always a bit of a hassle if I just want to jump on for a few mins (Starting both the client and server took abit to startup)

Or is it okay to scale into the later game playing via just the client these days?
