    Love the idea. I am in. If you will let me.
    I am great with almost everything in the main tech mods (RP2, BC, IC2, and their addons)
    And for an idea, we should have a pneumatic tube system connecting the entire city, allowing "trash" items (or even useful ones) to be inserted and sorted into an underground warehouse. Certain areas should be able to retrieve from the warehouse (i.e Inner Ring).
    And yes, I stole this idea from sk's base. :p

    If it were my choice, I'd just ban watermills altogether (EDIT: When used in auto-refill systems - on their own they can be a good, low-power source.). No need to ban mass fabricators.
    Heard of Step-Up-Step-Down Transformers? They work like a repeater for energy with no EU loss if you have them often enough. They can be rather expensive however (EDIT: For the average player).

    Expensive is no problem, we'll have resources enough. After all, Sed is leading the project :p

    Watermills will be banned definately. Mass fabs are still being talked about, but will most likely be allowed.

    The warehouse thing is exactly what we were thinking and probably (very likely) doing. Also, magtubes are soooo awesome for stuff like that :)

    MagTubes <3

    Also, if given the chance to work on this, I'd be happy to pool all my resources into this project (to make it go even faster) as soon as I get myself quantum (which shouldn't be too hard). Frame quarries FTW!

    Well red, you're definately in, that's for sure. The fram quarries is actually the very fist thing we want, even before quantum, and then we want to eventually get a full fleet of frame quarries :)

    frames quarries are pretty easy to make once you know how, especially TBM's since they don't require computer parts >_>

    FTFY (yes, I am a bit of a grammar Nazi)
    I agree, fleets of quarries are better than single mega-quarries as they may lag out players if they are too big.
    I know, I built the logic system on Gknova's TBM on GkCraft. :p

    I know i saw it and he told me ( i play on it :p).

    Actually is there any point in the very first repeater in the logic system?, i'm wondering cause i couldn't see how it would be used.

    Precisely why i pointed it out lol! :p
    Block breakers sometimes fail to break blocks on a 1-tick pulse, so the repeater extends the pulse.

    yep a frame quarrie is definitely the first thing that u want to make cause it gives lots of items!! second thing is a big eu gen for mass fab (nuclear).

    btw: just like red i want to help u guys get started, because this is one of the most fun projects i have seen:)

    Why use shitty BC pipes if you can do the same thing with RP?
    Shame on you :p

    Welcome abroad! We already thought of trash cans, I only forgot to put them in the list :D

    Exactly. Listen to this man. He knows his shit.

    The second thing, why we want frame quarries is terraforming. We just search for a biome/configuration of biomes we want and settle down. Is a mountain or Jungle in the way? No Problem.
    Yes, we go nuclear first thing after the quarries but everyone keeps forgetting that we have to build a shitton of coke ovens asap. We have literally THOUSANDS of chunks to claim.

    Offtopic-ness is a must these days.
