    Well we all know there's two problems some more important than others: tunnel bores and adv solars
    ill start off with the tunnel bores, there apparently taking all the CPU and draining the tick rate. words from SK i have no idea how the frames work at all, but sk says it'll be complicated to change code to limit the block breakers. personally idk i farm off a tunnel already made i think its neon's but i have no intentions of using one either. i was going to make a galgadorian drill and if they get disabled people probably just gonna go for that. also its not two stacks of moving objects its 1 cart.

    now adv solars, people are saying they should stay that way and others say don't. so far n blobs poll no is winning but sk hasn't made a decision. i say change them because come on guys its 8 eu plus there arent many others to start a matter fab to get the uum u need to make it. also its almost cheaper to make a hybrid then a adv one. also if the tunnel bores are disabled ill be cool with that becasue the server will have a higher tick rate and my tree farm will run faster and i can get my logi system to go faster my galgadorian drill will eventually mine faster (when i get it). also if people rage over the tunnel bores and get all pissy there can always be a wither and ghast arena to get them.

    I would like to have the old Adv. Solar panel recipe back. I use nothing but Adv. Solars for my base, and I was in the process of building 250 (150 built) so I could hopefully make some uu-matter for iridium/sunnarium.

    as far as the tunnel bore thing... I've never used one, seen the massive ass tunnels they make. if its causing that much lag/issues with the server, then I say disable them, old school mining and/or quarry is more than enough!

    I think that tunnel bores are way too OP'd anyway, no matter what it takes to power or build them. (never tried them, don't care to try them.)

    Why is there no "No." option? :C
