snip thanks, my logic behind using aerospikes was that i was in the presence of an atmosphere (even if it's a thin one) but i think it would have caused more problems than it was worth. with the first iteration I was already running into staging issues because you cant exactly place a decoupler und...

I always muck up the interplanetary return fuel :( see, with the vehicle he came in I think even if he didn't crash i wouldn't have enough fuel anyways so i would have needed a rescue mission either way haha. now i have this crazy idea to dock with the drivetrain module (what i call the engine-ey[?...

(for reference ive only been playing for like two weeks) so, throughout my game (ive only ever played on one save since i got the game) it has been my mission to get Jebediah Kerman to be the first soul on every planetary body in the kerbal universe without dying or restarting or anything (also i us...

so... i had my first run in with the beast today.... it came from within my own ranks. i watched him while he sat there (i had just returned home from mining with him as my guard dog) and poof! transformed less than 2 blocks away.... i saw those red eyes and black fur and thought: "HOLY SHIT WH...

I don't dispute this, its just that i've worked with hardcore buckets since shortly after it was introduced, just this process never occurred to me until I saw it in a video and i thought it was a bit... strange haha edit: also, it makes sense from a realisim standpoint (which i know is not the issu...

so, i'm not exactly sure if this qualifies as a spoiler or if i'm just the last one to find out about this... apparently even with HCB, you can still use the small amount of water that comes out of a bucket to make obsidian .... i don't know about the rest of you but it was so satisfying to have to ...

that moment when you see a pumpkin in the distance after a hardcore spawn and think, "MY SALVATION!"

this is probably a horrible way to do things but i generally use nuclear rockets to move anything that doesn't go through an atmosphere, usually my lauch stage consists of a large orange tank with a mainsail hooked up to 6 asparagus staged LV tanks/engines (2 tanks high, same height as the orange ta...

i can confirm this

Do villagers use boots or does this hints to a deeper, darker truth? Or is it just a random joke? Hummmm..... FC makes us think about conspiracies where none exist, and is laughing his ass off all the while, I'm pretty sure... yeah, i had a breif moment of thinking: "okay, so where did that co...

short story: so, im fishing and i manage to dredge up this jewel.
I sat and stared and laughed for a good while, thank you FC, for the little things

no sure if this was intended, but ores mined from different levels dont mix in the inventory

first off, if this needs to be in the off topic section, feel free to move it. with the recent updates to the early game, including hardcore hunger and all the added difficulties of fighting mobs without good equipment i have caught myself doing something that i have not done since beta 1.4 (i hope ...

oh my lord thank you

life has been hectic the last few months and I had to stop playing minecraft (*cough, cough* I mean Better than wolves, what is this "minecraft" you speak of?) I stopped shortly before hardcore hunger was introduced but continued to check the forums regularly. recently, however, I've had s...

Here is a straightforward one:

Java or C++? i remember you mentioning that before minecraft you primarily programmed with C++

if this needs to be moved to off-topic feel free to do so. so my friend and i were playing on his BTW server together (he was skeptical of the mod and i really had to push him to install it on the server) and we worked our way up the tech tree together all the way to steel and automation and the end...

when a wicker block is placed on a powered saw it turns into 2 blocks of soap

this was found when my friend and I were playing on his BTW server

I personally dont care about compatibility. to me BTW IS minecraft. if there were any compatibilities and I installed mods alongside BTW I would view those as the additions, not BTW. I say keep on trucking and finish BTW and move on to RTH like the original plan, if they wanna whine, let them whine ...

im sorry, i may not have been clear, i am referring to a flaw within thier community, not the problem with technic and forge themselves.

on a side note: I visited the technic forums for the first time to day to see thier side of the argument. i now see the problem. they are blatantly misinformed. they only listen to what thier higher ups say and dont seem to draw sources from anywhere else. they seriously think that technic and the f...

Once that's done, I'll be looking into the elements that finalize the "story" aspect of BTW to put a period on the end of the sentence I think the proverbial semi-colon would be more appropriate haha. (because A: in my opinion I will see the two mods as a proverbial compound-complex sente...

i was really looking forward to this game over the summer and was thrilled when i learned i got into the beta... then i found out i cant play it... at all. my graphics card is too old to even start the game. from what i can see it is amazing, ill just have to watch other people play it on youtube ha...

i updated the code written in there. no new functionality but the coding is alot cleaner (in my opinion) i added constants to unite every refrence to my char array i use funny story: i have been using a ASCII chart to look up characters to use for the player character and it looks like the font im u...
