Try applying a redstone signal to the transformer.

Once upon a time, there was a red engineer named Kocken. He went to a party dressed up as himself, which is valid because he's in this story. And the recursion broke the universe and it was so awesome that everybody died. THE END.

You know you can just back up your server list file from your Tekkit folder, right? And later put the file back in.

Immibis also made a similar block, giving us a total of at least 3 different chunkloaders.

Sound settings like I would imagine would also likely require some cooperation from the mod authors (adjusting IC2 machine sounds, etc). But I agree that this would be a brilliant idea. Toggling IC2 sounds without going into configs would be very helpful.

Hm... This post... Do you think he's asking for... Help? No, that can't be! You must want a squiggly thingee! Here you go: ~ On a more serious note, most of the mod restrictions I've seen done are done via Bukkit plugins of some sort. Look around on DevBukkit and you should find something useful.

Presenting: The Feed TECHNIC Beast Modpack!

So much necrcomancy...! If threads were sentient, this one would be deeply traumatized. But on topic... Maybe make a computer-managed trade system. The best way I can explain what I've been thinking of is through example. Player A has an abundance of copper, but is out of food. He goes to his town's trade computer, and logs in. The computer displays a list of all the trade offers that are pending. It's a small server, so no-one's offering anything he can use. He chooses to make a new offer, and tells the computer he's offering copper in exchange for steak. He puts some copper in the output chest and the system whisks away to a large secure storage. Meanwhile, in another town on the same network, Player B has just used up the last of his copper. The cave he's been getting ore from has finally been depleted, and the only thing he really can rely on is his cows. He logs onto the trade computer in the town nearest to him, and notices Player A's great deal. Eager for copper, he puts his steak in the outgoing chest, and tells the system he wants to complete offer <short ID number>. The system takes B's steak and store it away. It takes Player A's copper and sends it to the trade station that Player B is using. Player B leaves satisfied with his copper. But what about Player A? He got nothing yet, and all his excess copper is in B's hands! That's to be taken care of soon enough. Later that day, he logs onto his town's trade computer again to check up on his offer. He gets a notification, saying that his offer has been completed. The system takes B's steak out of storage and drops it off at the trade station A is logged into. Now A has his steak, and B has his copper. Everyone's happy, and the system is nearly impossible to cheat in a normal environment! Optional: Allow use of digital currency.

Ye gods! A zombie thread! I can't complain too much though. I like this thread. It has useful information.

That would work very well, but he said he wants it to be "realistic"... If he really wants that he shouldn't be playing Minecraft.

Have you tried using Thermal Expansion? I'm not sure how much power those machines take but it could work.

Wait what? Trees... of diamond? What?

Note that, if I'm not mistaken, the nasty code wasn't removed. Take it literally when we say it was only disabled. I haven't seen the source myself though so I'm not 100% sure.

Yes, but it's also 11:58 pm, so everything that requires use of the brain is a lost cause.

You act as if reducing large areas of your world to an unusable purple mess is a bad thing!

Deep fried Rotten Flesh.

Anyone wanna put this in terms that aren't so... Painful?

So, it's become obvious that Technic and Tekkit will be vastly different from here onward, for a multitude of reasons. 1.3 completely overhauled the code, and brought about the "unification of smp and ssp" that everyone was on about a while back (I'd bet half of them have no idea what that means). We also learned that ForgeBukkit could be dying, which could break Technic's connection with Bukkit. I'd just like to take a moment to figure out what all could happen from this, and discuss the results. Because of SMP and SSP being merged, it seems obvious that Tekkit would die, to be replaced with just a multiplayer-Technic. But how would this be hosted? As stated many times before, without Bukkit's involvement, many public servers will be devoid of the essential plugins that maintain... Lack of everything spiraling down to chaos (http://forums.technicpack.net/threads/how-to-start-an-infection.22541). So, we'll be rethinking servers entirely... But I'm stating the obvious here. Any deeper thought on what could branch out from this massive change?

The hamster tax seriously cripples some of the more dedicated toaster computer users. Those bits really add up over time!

Why don't we just phase out English completely and all speak some variant of C? It would be more entertaining to read, if it provided nothing else.

Well, based off of your thoroughly detailed bug report, and the apparent fact that you've done a lot of research on this before posting, your lack of results leaves only one possibility for the problem. You have a serious medical condition called Socorkelleritis. It causes your brain to emit strong electromagnetic waves that interfere with your computer, often causing software to not function properly. Sadly, there is no known cure. However, some patients have been known to recover over time after posting in the right section, reading the rules, and reading the common problems and solutions thread, followed by a healthy amount of intelligent posts.

You forgot Viking...

Yeah I meant the mods and admins. I'm glad we have people like you guys in charge, as opposed to MCF mods *shudders*
