Haha yeah some things have changed.
I will look into those chests and my armor, nice tip.
I already have the big backpack and indeed hooked up the fuel directly to the dynamos.
However, as you said, I did find oil. And I've been putting a pump above the quarry to extract it everytime. It takes ages for it to get down to the oil's level though... is there a faster way to do this? Similarly, if there's water flowing in from the sides (or sewage/etc), how can you get rid of it without having to go all the way down? Lava is easy as you throw water over it, but the rest?
And yeah, I've been planting the rubber trees as I found a few
Thanks so far!
Edit:
Thanks, I will read in the wiki about it too
Edit: Also, I'm not sure, but my yellorite smelts into uranium?? I have almost 2 stacks of it now.. I reinstalled tekkit the first time as I wasn't sure, but now I kept it as it is...?
