What are the possibilities of us getting some starting materials on a FTB server? I remember that on the switch from Beta to 1.0, we were allowed to transport structures. Now, anything from EE will be out, so many machines on the Tekkit Server are invalidated, meaning that a building copy is not so useful. In addition, people will just use EE to quickly run off things, stash them in chests and have them copied.
I think that some form of starting resources is a good idea. I'd like to run the idea up the flagpole and see who salutes it. Maybe a single chest of low-tier items and tools- nothing too advanced, just a few bits and bobs.

What say you, Dakka in general, and Darkinnit in particular? Feel free to shoot me down in flames if you disagree.

Actually, that might work.

1) I have no reactor system...yet.

2) There's always the option of infiltration.

3) I could go with a Napoleon-esque takeover by simply claiming control and hoping that people follow along (which is how the SVC was formed).

I'd say your place is easier to infiltrate, what with your company hiring anything that has one functioning limb and the ability to sign their name (however crudely)

Just letting the thread know, you can get on the vanilla server throught the FTB launcher.

And you could probably get on the tekkit one as well, but its complaining of it being too old XD

Maby the Structures and machines but no chests?

dunno how feasable that is, but I'd love if dark could transplant my building complex.

I don't think transferring structures would be good, but how does this sound:

You can bring 1 item with you, be it a stack of diamonds, a piece of armor, or even a single piece of dirt.

I'm sorry, but I don't agree. 1 item isn't enough to really have any effect on a player starting out, because if it's low-level, it's easily obtainable, and if it's high-level, by the time you get to the stage where you can use it, you can easily make it anyway. I say everyone should get some compensation for their time spent on the server that's going to be deleted- I think everyone getting the same starting materials for the new server (rubber, copper, some basic tools, maybe more advanced stuff like macerators and solar panels).

I agree with rubber and tools...and maybe even copper,but I'd say no to macerators and solar panels each. We should have a community area for that.

Even then, thermal expansion pulverisers are better as there is a chance for extra materials

Well it might not even be deleted, depends on server loads, popularity of tekkit after FTB goes live and what dark thinks...

Personally I'm against it because I don't see anything wrong with tekkit and I've already restarted doing tekkit 3 times, and I really don't want to have to do it again (hence consolidation kickstarters), though I'm not one for the technical side of running minecraft, and apparently tekkit isn't getting the same support, so maybe that's a huge inconvenience for dark.

Not sure, might be easiest to just install FtB (or just Mystcraft), edit the config to disable instability, then pop into Creative mode (so you unlock all age symbols immediately), write a Skylands age, then pop back into Survival and throw yourself into the void .

Not wanting to burst your bubble, but it's possible the spawner carts are creative mode only. But it's all speculation of course, you could be right.

Thing is, when you 'Pick block" on monster spawners, it doesn't get you the existing spawner. It just goes straight to Pigs. I imagine Silk Touch would work much the same.

Still, it'd allow for much, much safer Exp grinders, I think.

True, but they have been fixing bugs left, right and centre, as well as implementing new mechanics (such as anvils and enchanted books), so it's possible they may be changing that behaviour. Or they might still only be making it possible for adventure map makers who use MCEdit and NBTEdit to modify the spawner properties.

Still nice to see them implementing more different cart set ups though. Probably won't see any glowstone carts until they get the new rendering engine finished though, as moving light is not possible in the current rendering engine.
