Quality or quantity?


 So, when you automate for example getting diamonds or iron pieces from a sieve..
What to do? Have a bunch of sieves or fewer but with upgrades??
Today we're going to discuss what to do.. Quality or quantity?
With the constant change of minecraft version and updates, mods either get updated to newer versions or get better upgrades!
With a simple machine either:
- a furnace
-an ore processor (pulverizer)
-resource giver (sieve, laser drill)

Two options come up.
The options are:
1) To create instead of one multiple same machines to run the task you want faster, so you will have to wait less time.
2) Create 1 or 2 machines with upgrades in them. Although you will have just a few to use, with more resources you can max upgrade those 2 and then a cycle do the same!
Better explanation here:

(For my example I will use sieve / autosieve):

a) Making the machine (auto-sieve) 
b) Using the autosieve to gather resources
c) Crafting an upgrade for the machine (either speed or power upgrade)
d) Making sure you won't drain your power {RF) completely
e) Add more generators for more power 
f) Creating an additional auto-sieve for 2x resource gathering
g) Crafting upgrades for the secondary sieve
h) Gathering more resources
i) Becoming energy efficient
(That means using blocks/items that can be easily gathered and then converted to power like:)
-Food
-Coal
-Charcoal
-Solar power
-Lava (geothermal)

This a simple loop that when done in a much bigger scale will give you a handy amount of resources to move on and create more things (and machines)!

It can altered to your liking but the importan part is that when you craft an upgrade for a machine, which consumes more power to add 1x generator more!

In conclusion, quality will give you a stable source of materials,
while quanitity will become inefficient with a constant drain of power....

Modpack and NPC WAR

 The modpack I am making is a modpack based on something I was always in search of. Quests, adventure, magic and tech! It mainly uses custom npcs mod as it's main core, for other npcs and such. Furthermore many of the textures (used in custom npcs mod) that you will see are not mine. They were made by NPC WAR. His youtube channel can be found here: NPC'S WAR Youtube Channel The textures I used are here (both in old and new format): NPC'S WAR Custom Skins In this pack you will find: - Custom made biomes from a simple desert to the scary blackstone lands! - A huge variety of npcs in almost every village! - A lot of quests for basic survival, leveling and map related! - Tons of weapons and armor to choοse from! - Many different shops in each area ranging from tool smiths to an exp eater! - A big variety of building styles, block matching and detail to the last block! - The trading system if used correctly, lots of profit can be made from each shop! - Every hostile npc has drop...

ZombieCraft

  From many different youtubers playing zombie packs, to other apocalyptic games which I've played or seen. I had an idea! Not to add zombies of course but a mod that will add useful content to the player. That is the mod ZombieCraft ! ZombieCraft is currently made in Mcreator, it's available in 1.12.2 and it has in as of right now: -Military Uniforms: Max Damage Protection: 24 Current Sets: Tan Multicam Swat Combat Pilot Greek Desert & Snow Urban The way to craft one is easy. First of all, have JEI installed *(you will need it). Secondly, to make a set of any of the armours mentioned above you need fabric (which is crafted by 3 cloth). Some of the Uniforms: Simple Tan Combat Pilot Greek Desert Shots are a one time use item! When a shot is consumed it gives back an empty shot which can be re used! They give various effects such as: Adrenaline: Speed 3, Jump Boost 1 and Haste 3 -Ascension: Levitation -Hydro: Water Breathing -Runner: Speed 3 -Zombie: Hunger (15 seconds) and S...

Config Changing

  Since we talked about  changing  recipes to your liking. Many mods when added into Minecraft create a config file containing item and block ids,  or mechanics and other stuff  related to each mod. For the people who don't know: Config files can be found here: In  the  windows bar: Type %appdata%. Open Minecraft's directory. Open the Config folder. There should cfg files for each mod that you have  added. CFG files can be opened with a simple text editor or  Notepad ++. They are very easy to change as many of  the things in a config file have a true or false in the end. Meaning: You add a mod  that adds new  blocks in  the game. You want  to change some ids along with a hardening difficulty the  mod adds. You will open and find the mod's config file (see above), open the mod's config. Find the id's you want to change and the line with the  difficulty. In  the end if it  says true change it to fals...
