Can you do me a favor and order about 160000 vibrant alloys from my ME system for me?

[TwilightWalker]

If you're serious, yeah. 

[Skyrunner]

I am, it'll take a while to make enough vibrant alloy for enoenough capacitors for 1 TRF. If my CPUs aren't big enough to handle it, just order as many as you can. If I don't have enough materials (probably glowstone), throw redstone into a botania pool with Transmutation

[MagmaMcFry]

Just a note: I'm not requiring that you store all the RF in a huge capacitor bank. You could also for example store it in a bunch of flux capacitors kept in a barrel or a storage cell or something.

[TwilightWalker]

So...apparently rank S to SS on the Terra Shatterer requires the equivalent of 10,000 mana pools. That's a lot of mana.

I still think that the capacitor bank would be a better idea because of how fast you can get power into them compared to other means. Eg, the resonant flux capacitor has a max transfer rate of 10k rf/t.

1 Tera is a very very big number...

You could try powering the explosion flowers, or thermalilies with Serenade of the Nether.

How much energy did we calculate I have, including potential energy? 180,000 x ~768 = 138,240,000rf + the 11M i have in my banks currently, generating at 480rf/t.

[MagmaMcFry]

To generate a teraflux in 10 days (~1000000 seconds or ~5000000 ticks), you'll need to produce at least 200k RF/t for the entire length of the challenge. In fact, you'll probably need much more production than that, because I don't think you have nearly enough resources right now to craft all the capacitor banks or whatever you're gonna store all the flux in. This is actually possible though, because of exponential growth and stuff.

I did a few calculations for the most important resource barriers you'll find: If you use redstone flux capacitors, you'll need 4.5m redstone (about 1 redstone per tick!). If you use resonant capacitors, you'll need 1.3m redstone, 100k diamonds and 200k enderium, which means 100k platinum (one shiny every ten seconds). If you use vibrant capacitor banks, you'll need 640k diamonds, 3.7m redstone and 1.3m glowstone. If you use regular capacitor banks, you'll need 7m redstone and 1.6m glowstone.

These figures come without warranty and I may have miscalculated, but I'm fairly certain they're right.

[Skyrunner]

Seeing that I don't think I have 5m redstone... impossible?

[MagmaMcFry]

You just need to upgrade your mining speed. TwilightWalker just made a 150k rf/t power plant, that could actually be enough to get the resources within the time limit (although not the RF).


EDIT: Also good news everyone! I got the lag away, the server's now running at a mere 30% capacity! So you can go abuse it a lot before it'll get laggy again.

EDIT2: Please refrain from having animal farms full of idle animals in the future. I recommend making spawners that kill your animals immediately after using them.

[Skyrunner]

Well, for the lag I had my quarry off...

I still probably have nowhere near 5m redstone and probablu never will. :x Maybe if I had kept my quarry on through the many days.

Edit; Most animal pens full of idle animals is probably because there's no good way to automate animal killing pre-endgame. Meanwhile, automated animal spawning is easy with manual breeding or a feed station

Edit 2: The resonant flux capacitor seems like the easiest route for all this RF. I may have to increase the number of winsome bees from 1 to maybe 7 to match demand (they currently produce one shiny a minute) and maybe introduce redstone bees.

[bluejello]

guess I can attempt at making a neat castle in the twilight forest...

[TwilightWalker]

So....

Permission to (ab)use aer fire?

[MagmaMcFry]

What the hell, GregTech. What the hell.

So....

Permission to (ab)use aer fire?

Absolutely not. Elemental fire will wreck the server's shit, leave it alone for two minutes and it'll be basically unstoppable. Except perditio fire, that's only there to stop other fire, but it does a horrible job at that. Also your link is broken.

[TwilightWalker]

Link fixed, and I tested what it was about, it /should/ be safe in the manner it was used.

Also, turbines got up to full spin, about 28k RF/t per turbine, and six turbines, leaves us at a 168k RF/t total. Assuming perfect 20 ticks per second, that's 3.36million RF/second, 201million RF/minute, 12billion RF/hour, and 290billion RF/day. A little under three and a half days of running to get the TeraFlux

Oh, and that's with the reactor at 43% control rod insertion, meaning i could probably fit four or so more turbines onto it. So if it's Power you seek, simply turn to the number of the Beast, and receive it's blessing.
