PERHAPS. But in the meantime, I require energy. In massive amounts. So, I'm making my own nuclear reactor, because I need the close to the base of operations. In the mean time, I took some energy from project Rainfall, but left several uranium to make up for it. Hope that's OK.

Why not use solar flowers? That makes a lot of energy if you have enough.

Or set up a Buildcraft rig to fill buckets, and send them to an Industrialcraft waterwheel.

An interesting idea, I will look into it. In the mean time, does anyone know where I could get glowstone dust? If not, I was thinking perhaps I could recruit someone to help me with a nether extraction operation. The idea would be to find clusters' coordinates from underneath, and then to tunnel through the roof and precision extract them with a quarry.

I hate to be the bearer of bad news... wait, no I don't.

Anyway, that will be somewhat of a challenge, considering that the clusters themselves are usually near the roof, and finding (or digging out) a suitable cavern for a quarry will be a lot more work than building a floating platform w ladder.

I'd be happy to help you set up a reactor, as well as a expedition for glowstone dust. Also, did you turn the reactor off after using it?

Shadowmind, you know that site I found and you set up quarries at? There's new quarries, are those yours? Also, is the stuff in the chests that aren't connected to quarries my share?

Also, you can make glowstone dust. 5 redstone, 4 gold in a TNT recipe like configuration. Not good for heavy use, but if you just need a few, it will work.

new LP episode will shortly be incoming from me. Sorry it's taken so long, I had a busy week.

I've got some errands to run, and then I need to sleep, but I'll post a link once it's up. Until then, there's a link to the playlist in the first post, thanks to Iska. I recorded this one all in one go, and I tried yet another method of recording audio. I think it's actually loud enough this time to avoid robo-Destro. Let me know.

Also, feedback on my conundrum as detailed in the last few minutes of the episode would be great. I geniunely don't know which one I should get.

Edit: Youtube is uploading the video now. Should be live soon enough.

Edit 2: it's up. Link here: This is a link and you should click it.

Okay, thanks.

EDIT: There's one quarry there still set up, but not connected to any power. Is that finished, or disconnected by glitch?

Project snowfall might be an idea, a nice 40eu per tick reactor I think we should work together Xeno, (by setting up project snowfall as a breeder reactor)

Nah, I have my own purposes. Actually, they're really quite obvious. I'm somewhat surprised that I'm not being yelled at yet...

The Sever has fallen over. Domo, you wanna have a look at this? (appears to be unique to the MC sever, gengame is fine)

Ah, my newest project, the Aqueous Rift, is underway. Three guesses as to where it is, and how to get there.

Yes. Also, I'm sorry I couldn't respond to your previous ep; I didn't have a YouTube account or an account here in the Playground.

The goal is to have at least 2 or 3 SP eps a week, and 1 MP ep. I have a Industrialcraft video in the work now.

News on Rainwater:

I've set up what is called a neutral breeder reactor, meaning that the reactor needs to be heated with lava buckets to a certain point, then two depleted cells are placed inside with a Uranium cell. This is recharge the two cells, draining half the Charged cell. using this, I belie I can effectively double my Uranium resources, as well as recycle any depleted cells.

I am having some trouble logging in. My minecraft crashed, and now it crashes whenever I log in. Perhaps it did not disconnect me correctly? if so, could I be kicked so that I can reconnect?

Edit: it isn't that, there seems to be something wrong with the chunk I'm in. Which is a problem, as it is the place with all my quarries, etc.

OK, I am having serious issues with the server. Could my current coords be changed to spawn, or somewhere else sufficiently far away? I think that would fix it.

does that summoning rod always work that way, for example if you made another Hindu village would it have space for another solar flower underneath?
