If you have EE installed you could transmute stuff into sand and drop sand everywhere.

Can deployers deploy water? Put a deployer on one side of your work area and a block breaker on the other, with the deployer deploying water between them.

No mention of RedPower. Forget I said anything.

Similar to the above post, if you have EE installed, I seem to remember (possibly from an older version) that one of the rings evaporates water.

True, the fire ring's projectile dries up water as it passes.

[Skyrunner]

Yeah, combustion engines aren't an option for that reason.

Hmm... think I'm going to test if I can heat up a combustion engine externally and if it still uses up water.

I've got it! Fill up combustion engine, break it, place it, repeat!

Could automate the whole thing by using a redpower block breaker to break a full tank and deployer to place it down again with a timer to wait for it to fill

Or use it for an endless supply of water cells.

You can get endless water from a single 2x2 pool...

[The Darkling Wolf]

Yeah, but he might as well get them in a productive manner, such as draining an ocean.

Added Adwarf's pack to the OP.

[Skyrunner]

Could you maybe add Technic pack to the OP?
I'm not sure if it counts, because it's a separate client, but it has many of the mods on the OP, and it also works out-of-the-box. It's perfect for people like me who just can't seem to make things work.
Thanks to adwarf for finding it for me~

One drawback I've found is that you can't make iron golems for some reason o_o

[Frumple]

Um... sky? Bottom of OP. Pretty hard to miss, unless the image is blocked for you or something.

[bombzero]

I got to admit, its pretty funny you missed that.

Wait, I have RedPower 2. I'm gonna try that.

Can the deployer accept water from a BC pump? Or do I need a different water sucking method.

Re: The fill/remove combustion engine idea is not bad, as long as it can hold more than a tank.

EDIT: Never mind, I figured out the breaker+deployer circuit, worked fine but I didn't realize the pump was so ridiculously slow, even when powered by combustion engines. So that idea is scrapped, now I'm going to start building some sort of underwater mining dome and slowly work my way towards the glowdust tendrils . It's going to have glass walls and other fun stuff, and I'm probably going to use it as some sort of Mass Transit era and fill it with linking books. I'm going to call it the Nexus station .

I'm using Redpower2, Buildcraft, Thaumcraft 2 and Mystcraft. Often, it takes a lot to generate a new Myst era, then when it renders it slows to a crawl (like 1 frame per 15 seconds), but I just try my hardest to press ESC and then spam mousebutton the Quit to main menu button, eventually it works, I exit Minecraft, reload, and it's all fine and dandy.

May be a memory thing, my Java is currently capped at 2 GB. Could try to increase it to 3 to see what happens.

I'm using the same as you but without Buildcraft and get the same problem with some Mystcraft eras. One strange era was all jungle but each rubber tree had it's top missing. They were like giant rubber wooden obelisks.

Anyone know how to get Thaumcraft crystals and monoliths to spawn in Mystcraft eras? Some have them, some don't, and I can't find any rhyme or reason to it.

Yeah my first era was like that. It was also a Caveworld, which I think means it was basically a big chunk of blocks (the spawn was at the TOP, layer 120 or so) which was probably the reason the rubbertrees were chopped.

Caveworld, minus caverns, I guess. But it had a star fissure.

Also, I think Thaumcraft crystals are dependent on underground features. Like, the era has to have Caverns or something. Then it will spawn crystals (not just IN the caverns), someone mentioned that a few pages ago I think?


Also, RE: The water pump thingy, silly me forgot about the FILLER! Now I just need to have some air pocket below where I can plant my landmarks and presto, water gone and a nice stone brick box around the removed area. Ladders seem to be just right for that.
