Synthetica Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 Are you sure they are from IC2? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backplague Posted March 19, 2012 Author Share Posted March 19, 2012 I checked the IC2 wiki and it said nothing about them. I just want to know how they work :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yuriy Posted March 19, 2012 Share Posted March 19, 2012 If the MFSU are not near anything influenced by redstone current, you can et them to emit a redstone signal when full, partially full, empty, etc. Use your favorite color of RP lamp to color code your system and you're good to go. My first (and next) lab has 4 MFSU levels from top to bottom with lights that...ah, I'll jsut go screenshot it...here: http://imgur.com/AQcqg All machines are hooked up in parallel so they can pull from each set of MFSUs and because they drain power and it goes back down, the lights go from green to red as I deplete my available power supply. As for giving you an exact number, sorry mate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FrogBash Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Ugh, i wished they would have actually detected player and mobs and such :/ Thaumcraft has a detector symbol that uses a spider eye. Checkout a Thaumcraft tutorial video- you can make the "ultimate BUD switch" with Thaumcraft. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
