Yeah, I guess that works too Wyrm.

I have an awful lot of UU, and I doubt I'll use it any time soon. If it's possible to use UU, then you might as well have it. I've been struggling to connect recently, so if you need it, PM me and I'll give you instructions to find it.
That includes taking it to process it into other things- uranium, for example, to centrifuge to thorium, if that's possible.
I'll sell to others, as well.

as an aside- what appeals to you all about XYCraft? I've never seen the appeal, but I'd like to know why you guys and gals like it.

A few hours of tinkering later, and Ive finally readied an industrial grinder for automation.

@Melissia: little more than half a stack of Thorium dust in a chest right next to your island's portal. The Tessaracts are still a bit away for me xD

**SagesStone**

Just wondering who's building here?

It's a small half built wooden shack at the moment, in the valley around there.

Just a heads up, but you may want to run.

**Corpsesarefun**

This should be fun...

**SagesStone**

Yep, least there's something in the End now.

neat looking blocks that are transparent so mobs dont spawn on them
customizable, excellent fluid storage that isn't super buggy like some of the others

What are the buggy others that you are referring to here?

Just curious really, as I've only seen bugs with Xycraft tanks and none at all with say Railcraft or Buildcraft tanks. However Xycraft tanks are cheap, which makes them very appealing if you know how to avoid the bugs.

I dont like how the liquid in the iron ones tend to flicker and vanish, and also xycraft valves seem to have the best flow rate

**Corpsesarefun**

So while attempting to build a grinder in the end my internet tanked and I fell into the void whilst wearing a full quantum suit (gravichestplate and ultimate solar helmet included).

**Grundz**

BTW anvil you gave me the wrong saplings, but I am now producing spruce and should have plenty for you

**Anvildude**

Oh, the purple autumn saplings produce spruce wood. They're what I've been using because they grow right next to each other like Oaks do, and produce apples, which I've been eating. Do they not work in tree farms?

**Grundz**

you gave me some red trees, I dont know
I'm producing spruce now, works fine, have a ton, come get it

**Anvildude**

Perfectly awesome, then. Will do.

**Corpsesarefun**

I'm in the market for copper and rubies or bees that produce them.

I'll restart my machines that do just that later today, put 2 enderchests into the white white white chest set to frequencies that you want filled with copper and ruby

**Anvildude**

Oh, G- if you want to do an Enderchest for Spruce, I have a Fabricator setup made to make me tons of bookcases.

**Grundz**

Just make me an ender chest and put it with a sign at my base near the ME system or leave it in white white white and PM me

Be aware that I will probably overwhelm anything you automate and hook up to my output chests so make sure you have PLENTY of storage or a contingency plan of some sort that doesn't involve blowing up the server with 4 million sand again

**Corpsesarefun**

Chucked two triple blue private enderchests in your white enderchest.

Rubies, copper and gunpowder are appreciated if you can spare them.

**Grundz**

I'll give it a shot but the issue with having one frequency for one item is that they have a tendency of filling with one thing and setting up buffers like the public supply chest is a pain in the ass

**4oursword**

How are you doing free everything anyway, Grundz? Copper seems easy, but rubies... Is it just UU-matter?

**Ramos Asura**

As one who has witnessed his setup.... I think he can manage a few free things xD

Hes got one seriously insane manufacturing complex.

**Anvildude**

That's the nice thing about Xycraft fabs- they have a built in buffer- I'm not gonna be pulling from the output (it's got a 3x3 storage area) so once that fills up, it'll just stop drawing resources and stop fabbing.

I barely deal in UU matter, its largely farms, huge amounts of storage, and centrifuging things
for example

witch farm -> redstone -> centrifuged ruby dust -> electrolized chrome dust -> chrome -> chrome plate

I can produce just about infinite anything at will, just depends how creative i'm feeling

In which case use the blue for copper and I'll set up two different colours for the rest.

OMG IT'S FINALLY OUT!

**Ramos Asura**

Coolio.
Will that be what we end up switching to come the reboot?

**darkinnit**

That has yet to be decided.

In short, it's likely another reset would be needed for 1.6

Some mod devs have already switched to developing for 1.6 and some even work (Computercraft, Mystcraft) while some mod devs are currently taking a break or are still finalising their 1.5 versions.

The question is, do we switch to FTB Unleashed, (knowing we will probably have to reset again when FTB 1.6 comes out), or do we wait and hope 1.6 comes out soon-ish.

I've already said most of the above before and have answered questions about all this stuff earlier in the thread too, (so don't go asking all the same questions again - I won't answer them again).

Now that it looks like the release might actually be imminent (although they said the same thing weeks ago), this weekend I'll try to get a summary page up somewhere where I answer or link to common queries.

Then I'll set up a vote, similar to the Gregtech vote I did a while back.

**Ramos Asura**

Sounds good.
