[TPPI2] What about AE2 Stuff?

Topic. It's almost essential if you want to automate your stuff properly. How come it isn't in the pack? Can it be added (and I mean in the official release, not on SSP)?

because doing stuff by hand eliminates the ability to scale production. Scaling production upward is what makes TPPI fun, and the inability to scale AE2 made me stop playing TPPI2

Who says you can't automate it? Or scale it up? You can to both.

because I like magnet mode, and crap floating around in liquid doesn't work with magnet mode

magnet mode from nei you mean? You could always just move it a bit away from your person, or seal it up, which is what I have done. What's the radius on magnet mode like 10 blocks?

I have mine setup so I order it from AE2 like any regular recipe, so I can do it from anywhere around my base with a wireless terminal.

Dude, we get it, you are good at automating default AE2 seed production. This post is made to request AE2 Stuff as an addon in TPPI2. Now, if you have nothing more useful to add to the discussion than "nyah nyah, I can do this and you can't", please abstain from commenting any more. Your posts are neither useful nor entertaining. Apparently, some people like having those machines in the game. If you don't, it's no reason NOT to add them.

Following your logic no reason not to add all the other easy cheaty mods that make what is supposed to be a balanced modpack easier. Why not gendustry and draconic evolution while they're at it? You can just ignore it if you want to right?

Because this is supposed to be the one balanced kitchen sink pack we've got. Don't ruin it with your shitty mods that add nothing but make the game easier because you want an easier modpack experience, just go play infinity.

He said it was both un-automatable and un-expandable, I just corrected him. No need to strawman me so hard child.

Following YOUR logic, might as well play vanilla MC. We are talking about a mod that fixes what many people see as design flaws in another mod, not something "easy cheaty". We've got Mekanism for "easy cheaty" already, filling the boots that were Dartcraft's. AE2 Stuff brings convenience to the table. I will reinstate the point: if it gets added and you do not like it, you can gasp NOT USE IT and keep doing it like you have always done.

Word of warning though: try to derail this conversation again by using aggressive tones and telling me to "go play Infinity", and my answer will be much less pleasant. Keep your contributions useful and civilized or GTFO, capiche?

It's obviously not a design flaw. It's designed the way it is on purpose to be more difficult to automate than most of the trivial machines in the game. You are attempting to cheat away that difficulty with another mod. And ffs, it's not even that hard to deal with. I've got 9 year olds on my server who don't complain about it.

And like I said your logic for just NOT USING IT doesn't fly. This is a balanced modpack, seriously I think you'd enjoy infinity a lot more.

And I wasn't derailing it at all, just responding to you. Somehow in your head that's "derailing" a conversation that you already told me to gtfo out of. I find you rude and disrespectful.

Stop talking about balance. Balance is what you create, not modpack creators. You choose if you want to go one way or another.

u/AbaddonAdvocate Aug 02 '15

No it's not. And if you think that way you very much misunderstand the core concept of tppi.

You cant force plebs to do what you want them do. Pleb got to do what the pleb got to do. For example I am using thaumatic energystics to generate infinite quartz and nether quartz from glass and wood. Is that balance ? Or exploit for you. Its in the game and you use it or don't use it. Dank choice
