Its not that bad. In the next Ultimate update. We get quite a few new updated mods and new mods. Tinkers Construct etc.

Doln't let them scare you. It's not any time soon.

It will, however, be a start completely afresh. I kind-of welcome this new start, but will miss my powertool, Commander Smashworthy.

Yeah the whole "start afresh" thing is precisely why I'm not looking forward to the reset...

But but new mods... Though I am disappointed I just found a portal gun. Thinking they could do that cool ability about carrying chests. But it seems that darknnit has disabled that function.... Sad face. So many debuffs to an ultimate mod pack.

**darkinnit**

Portal guns work fine. Check your keybindings.

New mods are all well and good but I was about to get into the end game gregtech stuff (lightning rods, fusion reactors etc)... It seems a little pointless now.

As most people have voted for No Gregtech for whichever update path we take, then it is all the more reason to get into them now before any update.

**Anvildude**

I'm disliking Tesseracts right now- they make it impossible to trace systems back to their originators.

Grundz, where's your tree farm? It doesn't seem to be working.

So are we going back to direwolf20 pack? Or are we just not checking gregtech off?

Tesseracts are extremely tricky. I suggest messing around with them in single player then doing it on the server.Thats how I created my Mob spawners and my very intricate redstone devices. Because screw gregtech

**4oursword**

Gregtech has divided opinion hugely, so the next version of ultimate will come out both with and without GregTech. Either way, Redpower is disappearing, which is annoying.

Do golems (thaumcraft) still have a tenedncy to fall through the world and disappear? I'm going to use iron ones, but i'm insure whether to use Wooden pipes or Wooden Golems to pick up grinder'd items. 8oth could end up being lagfests...

No they fixed that recently.
I am actually glad redpower is getting the boot. Because it is maintained by a gal (Thanks for the fix) who does not let anyone else help except themselves.

**Melissia**

A girl you mean

And I don't blame her for not wanting other people to muck about with her code, to be honest.

**Xeriapt**

Ill miss redpower, twas a good mod.

**darkinnit**

Almost all the features of Redpower are now available in other mods. Yep it's all split across various mods, but then Redpower was a bit of a monolithic beast and that may have been one of the factors in the difficulties in keeping it up to date.

**4oursword**

It's the smart piping I'll miss the most. But I won't miss the NEI menu with thousands of Microblocks.

**darkinnit**

Ha ha. Now NEI will be full of thousands of the alternate microblocks and it's also now full of all the bees and serums too.

**SagesStone**

Should have a filter put into it like the creative inventory.

I don't think they show up in NEI, and with my previous exploring many of the bees don't appear. I could be wrong though

**Asherian Command**

So NEI is going to be absolutely filled with microblocks now?

What other mods are they adding now?

**4oursword**

The new microblock mod is Immibis' MicroBlocks. It seems a fairly accomplished mod in my usage of it, and doesn't litter the menu with thousands of microblocks. That does mean that creative users need to carry around a hacksaw, though.

**Melissia**

Anyone have any Thorium/Uranium/Plutonium to donate to the Get Meli and Iustis a Nuclear Reactor fund?

Thorium is preferred.

Can it be UU-Manufactured?

**Corpsesarefun**

Probably, why? Do you have UU for sale?

Thorium?

The sources of Thorium are as follows, as far as I know:

Industrial Grinder:
-- Coal Ore: 1 Tiny pile of Thorium Dust
---- Other products: 1 Coal, 1 Coal Dust
-- Monazit: 1 Thorium Dust
---- Other products: 10 Forcicium
Industrial Centrifuge:
-- Near Depleted Uranium Cell: 1 Thorium Dust
---- Other Products: Empty Cell
-- 8 Re-Enriched Uranium Cells: 4 Thorium Dust
---- Other Products: 3 Near-Depleted Uranium Cells, 1 Plutonium Dust, 5 Empty Cells
-- 4 Uranium Dust + 4 Empty Cells = 2 Thorium dust
---- Other Products: 4 Uranium Cells, 1 Tiny Pile of Plutonium Dust, 1 Tungsten Dust

The differences between Uranium and the other fuels:

Thorium: Lasts 5 times as long as Uranium, but produces 1/5th the energy-- end result is the total amount of energy over a longer period of time.
Plutonium: Burns twice as hot as Uranium and lasts twice as long.

Effectively, a Thorium reactor requires a lot less micromanagement than any other kind, while a Plutonium reactor is VERY micromanagement heavy (since you need to watch it for overheating and be very careful about it), but it also produces the most energy by far.

**Ramos Asura**

I should be spooling up an industrial grinder soon for my ore processing. You guys are welcome to the Thorium.

**Melissia**

If you have the resources, you could easily set up a system to deposit Thorium right in to my AE storage, using the Meli's AE Input tesseract channel.

Why not just turn on the survival menu and select the blocks you want from there?

**Melissia**

Personally, I don't want to transition in to either 1.5 or 1.6 until one of them gets confirmed that Xycraft is in it, anyway.

Xycraft is being fixed currently. Sorayan says he is working on it currently.
