However, it has several differences from TL, including multiple new mods such as Galacticraft and several nerfed features including several nerfs to ProjectE in order to allow for a more complex gameplay experience.   Some of the special rules concerning ProjectE from our TL server also apply here,here so— gifting of items is forbidden and items should not be sold under the minimum price,price. however,However, teaming is not forbidden so long as the whole team lives in the same base. Tekkit 2 is available to play on the Technic launcherLauncher as an official modpack.

 

Getting Started

T2 is a kitchen sink pack, so unlike other packs we host such as Nomifactory,host, there is no quest book,book and the method of progression is largely up to the player. However, one of the easiest ways to get started is to get straight into ProjectE and craft a transmutation table alongside building an EMC farm, allowing for the production of a large variety of items. ProjectE has been nerfed, so a lot more automated crafting is required than on TL as afar lot lessfewer items have EMC values.

For autocrafting, either ProjectRed pipes or Logistics Pipes are extremely useful,useful however, it is very much personal preference— which to use.use is largely personal preference.

ComputerCraft allows players to build automated systems using the Lua programming language. A manual for Lua 5.4 outlining basic syntax and modules can be found here, however,. ComputerCraft also adds it'sits own modules allowing players to interact with the world. 

Galacticraft adds several space-themed dimensions (Moon, Mars, Venus, AsteroidsAsteroids, and Space Station) which may be accessed by building and launching a rocket. There are three tiers of rockets, each suitable for different destination planets,planets.

Forestry is centred around 3three key types of organisms -— bees, treestrees, and butterflies. Each naturally occurring species of these organisms has a set of genes, and breeding different species of the same organism together allows for the production of new species with new characteristics. Binnie's addons for Forestry also add flowers as a fourth organism, alongside new species, tools for genetic modificationmodification, and several alcoholic or non-alcoholic beverages.
