Hrm. I miiiiiiiight want to use potions to power my base :D

Maybe

Maybe not

It'd be different

It might make good supplemental power, if anything

I think it might make for good temporary quarry boosts, swiftness 2 splash giving 320 RF/t for 1 minute 20 seconds

Which would be 4 minutes per brew set

Which is better than inconsistent bursts of 80 RF/t with a furnace generator

@Arperum restarted the game, coming up now

'tis up

@TimPost Thank you, I won't be online for probably 12 hours or somesuch, but anyway (firt work, then go ask information at the town hall, then have someone come over to see what can be done with my kitchen and other stuff and how much that'll cost me..

@Arperum If only contractors could be paid in gold ingots ...

I'm actually pleasantly surprised at how uneventfully stable the server has been.

@TimPost No chunkloaders +loads of complex machinery yet.

@TimPost I'd prefer if you could pay people in copper, there's so much more copper in worldgen... ;)

@Jochem The amount of tin isn't exactly low either.

A fun fact about the current (1.0.8) FTB Unstable 1.7.10 modpack is that copper is actually relatively rare, because it only spawns at something like Y>40. Not as rare as gold, but still. I have about twice as much zinc, and I'm still not sure if I will need that for anything.

@MartinSojka You might want to test, but I believe Zinc blocks have a respectable blast resistance. That might not be true absent mods that actually use it, though.

For some reason I'm thinking something in IC2 experimental makes use of it, or its dust perhaps

How many mods have they got in the unstable modpack?

@TimPost ATM two mods are using it, Bluepower (Quetzi's and other's RP2 clone) and Flaxbeard's Steam Power. No idea which block I'd get (obviously all the stuff is still conflicting to hell in Unstable), would have to test.

I've been thinking about a purely technical modpack for 1.7.10 - IC2, AE2, BC, Big Reactors, All the extra utilities mods, IC2 add-ons, Thermal Expansion, Railcraft and some others. Throw in Blood Magic, TC4 (when it ports) and Mystcraft with an enhanced dungeon pack for easy access to stuff. Probably going to be a few months before any of that is stable on 1.7.10.

Quite a lot of mods, including EnderIO, PneumaticCraft, TiC, TE, MFR, BC, AE2 and so on, so you can have nice technical fun already. Less so on magic side, but Blood Magic and EE3 are in.

More or less a modpack for folks that have the mindset of "I know how to play Minecraft, I just want more interesting stuff to do. Let me spend less time finding crap and more time building"

@KevinvanderVelden quarry's down to level 5, just fed it 2.5 more stacks of potatoes

Cool

Aren't you two happy I got a potato from some friendly zombie?

Yes, we're doing some serious inbreeding here

We're powering everything of the descendants of that original potato

IIRC the potato farming uses vegetative reproduction to create more spuds

so no inbreeding involved

Ssshhh

it's your fault if people today don't know how potatoes are grown

@ratchetfreak I do though. Growing up on a farm will do that to you.

@ratchetfreak still creates a giant monoculture susceptible to disease

@Jochem see also ireland iirc

@Arperum Did you just ask to borrow one from him?

@Unionhawk No, noone had a potato until I had a lucky drop from a zombie.

How? All it usually takes is a single NPC village ...

Usually :D

Only wheat and carrots so far

@Jochem our quarry is done!

@KevinvanderVelden woo :D Time to split the spoils? I'm signing in now

huh, you can rename telepebbles in an anvil

I'm playin dota, divide away =p

@Jochem That sounds rather usefull. Especially based on the telepebblesoup @kevin made yesterday.

You try having 4 identical items in your inventory =p

@Arperum "This one takes you to this part of the base, then this one takes you to this other part of the base, I don't know where this one goes, but I think this one is the old base"

@KevinvanderVelden Place them in different spots and keep them there?

That was the plan, but somewhere that went wrong

@Unionhawk It ended up "here is one" uses it "uhm, how do I get back" gets a second one "this one also goes to the new base" oh, damn, I'll take a netherrun

@Arperum I only did the netherrun because then I head 2 pebbles that went to our base

@KevinvanderVelden And probably used one.

Yes

I saw you disapear so I tp-ed

Telepebble will likely save my ass so many times

My pebble tries to boil me in @Arperum's cauldron

And now it's spawning me in a wall!

@KevinvanderVelden Why did you link your pebble to my cauldron?

I didn't! It's trying to kill me!

Anyway, now is time for bed

Cya chat

@KevinvanderVelden I've taken my half of the quarry stuff, everything that's there is for you. I'll move the quarry tomorrow and start it back up, bedtime for me as well now
