    Want to maximize efficiency? Be a better player? This list is for you!

    -Macerate your ores, you get twice the ingots
    -Macerate blaze rods for 5 blaze dust instead of 2
    -Extract sticky resin for 3 rubber instead of 1 with smelting
    -Run rubber wood through an extractor for rubber
    -Put your electric screwdriver on 'lossless mode' for no machine reversions (hold your mode key [default: m] and right-click)
    -Change your mode key so that it does not interfere with your mini-map key (or change your mini-map key)
    -Recycle extra materials for scrap
    -Run a mass-fabricator with scrap for more efficiency
    -Refine oil into fuel for better results
    -Keep water in your combustion engine
    -Get flint fast by macerating gravel
    -A block breaker and a timer make a neat, small cobblestone generator
    -NEVER leave an engine that can overheat running
    -Levers make turning off engines easy
    -NEVER leave an engine pumping fuel/oil/lava into a combustion engine running or you will loose oil/fuel/lava
    -Give an induction furnace a redstone signal to make it stay at maximum (100%) heat

    You have more? Then tell me below!

    A good pro-tip is to go on youtube and watch tutorials for the mods. And some let's plays, but that's optional.

    hehehe its only natural dude, if you don't know too much. But you should check out Direwolf20's mod spotlights or just create a world and mess around with the mods until you know what your doing.

    You should tell sk about this, Ryguy so he can maybe put it on the quick ref for Alice! It can be under a tips section maybe.

    -Compressing 3 netherrack makes nether bricks
    -Using a little iron some sticks, and a block of dirt or wool, you can create MOAR scrap in the recycler.

    You must really have no idea what "a big fucking necro" is. Where I come from, necros date back TEN YEARS, AND... Okay, I EGGSaggerate, but still, hooge bumps of 2 years passed.

    You don't know what i would give to punch your pretty little face in, because of your ignorant behavior and for just being a real idiot.

    Using these materials, you can craft a handsaw... This thing will "cut" the blocks into smaller blocks (redpower 2 microblocks). So instead of recycling one dirt block, you cut it and you are able to recycle 32 items (named cover corner)! :D

    Recipe and some info: [​IMG]
    Cutting recipes: http://nemesis.evalq.net/RedPower2/recipes.html#cutting_recipes

    You can also use diamonds, rubies, emeralds or sapphires to craft it:

    How exactly do you automate this...since saws have damage values and do not work well with either the automatic crafting table MKI or MKII, this will have to be done manually :(
