Repeating my earlier question. Anyone know of a good Tekkit server that's accepting new people?

I'd actually offer to host a GitP server, but… I don't really have the resources to do so.

What is it?

druid91 · 05-10-2012, 12:54 AM

I'll join in on ironcraft now that my laptop is back.

Togath · 05-10-2012, 02:40 AM

I'd like to try competing in ironcraft as well

Djinn_in_Tonic · 05-10-2012, 10:19 AM

I've been AFK from Minecraft for a while, but Ironcraft DOES seem like a pretty awesome use of my free time...I guess I'll call in, although preferably either with Mario, or as his ARCH-NEMESIS!

Zain · 05-10-2012, 12:25 PM

A new Ironcraft, you say?

I'm down, I take it we will be put into creative mod and somehow locked into the Ironcraft world?

I do not know of a Tekkit server. But Scuzzball's server does serve (for me at least) as a Giantitp server, as the thread deals with it a lot.

Nobody? At all?

Tyndmyr · 05-10-2012, 03:23 PM

Not a clue, squish, I never use MCEdit...I'm a much bigger fan of doing things purely legit, on survival. Plus, multiplayer servers are better, IMO. I like showing stuff off to others.

Also, signed up for Ironcraft.

Also, Also, going to populate Obsidian Junction with NPCs...anything I need to know about for this? I already got the stuff for the runes I'll need, but I'm unfamiliar with NPC behavior...that said, the whole city is walled, so it's not like they can get lost...but there is lava they might walk into.

Hm... Let's talk about it on the server. I can show you some tricks to save on effort. But, simply put, Obsidian Junction is gonna be kinda big for a village.

Aright, I'll hit you up next time I'm online. Yeah, I figured it was likely a wee bit larger than most of their places...but I'm ok distributing housing throughout to make this populated.

Yeah. I've got a base set up for villager farming that I can show you.

When you log on, you should get an invite to it. If not, just let me know.

Props to DRUNK_SOB on the Minecraftforum who posted this suggestion.

Yes and no. WorldGroups automatically prevents you from moving items out of Ironcraft, so you're not locked in.

Phhase · 05-10-2012, 04:49 PM

Is Ironcraft gonna have a separate thread? What's the theme? When is it?

Semi-automatic wheat farm, using sticky pistons. It's based on the layout in this video, albiet with a tweaked redstone arrangement (there's a redstone torch under the glowstone acting as a OFF (I think) switch) so that the lever has 'down off/up on' functionality).

It's a bit of a space hog (each two rows of six wheat require a space seven blocks wide), but I, at least, find it nifty.

Tome · 05-10-2012, 05:54 PM

Ooh, count me in for Ironcraft.

The Bushranger · 05-10-2012, 06:04 PM

...ok, that's annoying. My Iron Golem somehow climbed my fence and came down on the other side.

I managed to herd him back inside after chopping up the fence to let him through, but who knows if it'll happen again. (The doubly annoying part is that this fence is on top of ice; if the original biome my place was in was still there (as opposed to the Tagia it became), that'd be open water and the iron golem would avoid it like the plague...)

horngeek · 05-10-2012, 06:27 PM

That would be annoying.

In other news, I seriously don't think I'm going back to vanilla minecraft after playing Tekkit/Technic pack. Setting up enormous contraptions, all meant to mine out an area, sort the mined materials, smelt up any metals, and sort the junk and turn it into DIAMONDS is just too much fun.

I'm on Hinjo's junk."

EDIT: As predicted, the Iron Golem managed to glitch over the fence and wander off, last seen heading in the direction of Bigcastle.

The other GITP server is Technic pack.

No to the separate thread, READ the thread for the rest. It's not that hard.

If you'd care to to join in, please sign up here. This way I can actually organize the build area. Sign up goes until thursday-ish of the build week.

Contest will run from the 13th to the 19th, starting at 12:00am thereabouts and ending 11:59pm thereabouts. This is assuming all goes as planned of course.

Theme will be "Ponds, lakes, and puddles". That is to say, the build will need to relate to one of those things in the area. There will be another rule added later, which will be told at the same time as the special ingredient.

@/\; server seems to be working for me.

Oh, really? Does that one have a seperate whitelist and everything, or is it the same list?

...for that matter, what do I type in to enter the Tekkit GitP server?

I believe this thread is about the tekket GITP server

Completely different server.

Yep Iskandar. I'd forgotten the name for a moment.

Volthawk · 05-11-2012, 07:20 AM

Huh, I've never noticed that tekkit server before....

I actually had one of those in Obsidian Junction, until a derpchunk ate it. That said, since my experiment was a success, I intend to make a vastly larger one.

Also, I believe that the water method is more space and resource efficient for semi-automatic than the piston method, so if space is a problem, something to think about.

Eventually, though, I intend for Obsidian Junction to have farms for everything farmable.

...Hm. I have my tower of babel reaching to the heavens. I have my hanging gardens, albeit a bit brown and unkempt-looking. I even have a colossus. But the rest of my city of babylon is empty. Anyone have suggestions? I still have to fill like 2/3 of it.

You could do what Ogremindes did and make housing. Check out his castle area with the telerune that's up the northern road at /spawn, through the doors, and on the left.
