So the game told me to use lava, I used lava, not enough heat, sure enough, iron says it needs 234, only at 200, but how do I get that 34? The recipe said a bucket of lava should do it, but it didn't. Do I need to use a different block? Have a melter on top of seared heater, already melted down tin w/coal.

So, I think we should probably start getting all of our little tips and tricks setup in a nice neat little post so, I'll kick it off with some of my notes I wrote down while I did not have internet.

• Get a market ASAP, you will need to get some passives grown via the mob seeds, and you have two ways to do it, either craft them with the apropriate parts or, purchase them at the cost of corn, corn seeds will come from the grass you get when you bonemeal grass. Before anyone asks, you need grass blocks can be crafted.

• Mob farms are nice, but not needed early on as other skyblocks, I completed my entire first tab without having a dedicated mob farm and I only killed off a few mobs that spawned due to me forgetting to light up something that just went too dark

• Cobalt and Ardite trees are probably the last two trees you will get, dont go the deep mob learning route, just head to the Nether and pick up the ores, it is not a void world.

• Apothesis is in this modpack, it makes the super tall cacti and sugarcane, dont forget to pair these items with your SNAD, to improve the rate of growth to about x2 (Source: I watched my SNAD cane grow twice as tall as 3 of my sand cane.)

• Integrated dynamics / Integrated tunnels is an awesome mod when it comes to logistical transportation, the only thing is that it can get a bit tricky when it comes to creating rules. If you can master the basics and follow the guide (It DOES NOT provide rewards for achievements due to modded achievements)

• Integrated Dyanmics also has a powerful battery that is easily scaled, (2 menril blocks, 6 menril chunks, and 1 block of redstone) that when crafted has a max capacity of 1M FE. This battery can be crafted with another, to create a single 2M FE Battery, I dont know how big of a battery you can get but, 72M was awesome. Whats more awesome is that this battery can act like a portable battery and keep your matter overdrive guns powered up. 72M FE allows you to dominate a lot of faces.

• Culinary Construct is in the modpack, it is like Tinker's Construct but, for sandwiches. My normal goto baseline sandwich is Doughnut (or cookie) bun, Bacon, Cookie (or doughnut), Carrot, Baked Potato, Menril Berry. 4 out of 6 parts grow on trees or, you could use apples for another tree food, carrots grow quick and this only requires 1 item to be cooked, overall this is rated for 11 hunger and 14 saturation. Be mindful that any effects the food gives you, will still pass. Putting ironberries into your sandwich is not recommend but, a slimedrop, heartroot, and menril berry sandwich may be useful for lots of quick buffs or, use cake for a quick and powerful sandwich (Doughnut and cake is 9 hunger and 42 saturation)

• Party Pickaxes made their way back, stupid fast, stupid durable and it can also make cake. Takes Obsidian, Iron, sticks, and a diamond to make. Cyclic Magma Anvil(recommended) or Powered anvils can repair this magical tool as well, Hooray Cake!

• The Barrels, Drums, Storage and more mod is a nice change from Storage drawers but, did you know that you do not need to craft any size upgrades besides the 64x? Upgrades are all addidtive, meaning I can just keep slamming in the 64x upgrades (at the cost of wood) until I hit the max size.

• Also with the same mod, Shipping containers may take 69 iron ingots (and an iron bar) but, it is a 2x2x2 block that can hold 27 crates

• Trees are your resource production early game and, hopping bonsai are magical however, you can get overwhelmed with resources and, not every tree is created equal. The Packager from Cyclic is useful in many cases when it comes to the trees. Please note, I try to avoid waste early and mid game, I normally try to use as much stuff as I can

General

Normally you want to use the 5 nut to 4 resin ratio due to the drop ratio

Diamond/Emerald tree

PACKAGE: Acorns are worth 1 nugget each

Smelt Resin for Blocks / Gems

Redstone Tree

PACKAGE: Acorns are worth 1 redstone each

Resin is only useful for destabilized redstone, which can NOT convert to redstone

Lapis Tree

PACKAGE: Acorns are worth 1 lapis each

Resin is effectly useless

Glowstone Trees

Crush Acorns for 1 dust

Smelt Amber for 1 block

BONUS RESOURCE: Blaze Powder

Quartz Tree

DO NOT PACKAGE: 5 Resin / 4 Acorn in this generates a quartz while, crafting the same creates the block

You will be left with excess acorns, burn for power or smelt into more quartz(Nuclearcraft)

Netherack Tree

Both Amber and Nethrack recipes use the same 5 Resin / 4 Acorn but, with two patterns, Recommend making netherack and smelting for blood it.

BONUS RESOURCE: Quartz

Metal / Clay Trees

Effectively they all follow the same rules, Package resources and smelt excess acorns

Bacon/Donut/Cookie

CRAFT for amber, smelt excess acorns, invest in sandwiches with cookie or donut buns.

BONUS RESOURCE: Bacon/Donut/Cookie (As appropriate)

Bone Tree

DO NOT PACKAGE, Craft the bone amber, then into 3x bone, Process bone inside your choice of machine.

You will be left with excess acorns

BONUS RESOURCE: Bonemeal

Sand Tree

PACKAGE if you want sand, otherwise Glass is more efficient use.

You will be left with excess acorns

Gravel Tree

PACKAGE for gravel

You will be left with excess acorns, you can use the crushing tub to generate sap to then make torches

BONUS RESOURCE: Flint

Petrified Tree

DO NOT PACKAGE: Generate Petrified Amber, this can be smelted into seared brick

Smelt excess acorns into seared brick

*Edit for formatting and correcting error with Bacon/donut/cookie tree

Hello, I have made an automated tree pot farm in skyblock 4. Its just a bunch of pots on a bed of item conduits piping the output into combiners. My issue now is that these pots out put slightly more acorns then sap. So my combiners fill with acorns. What are your thoughts on solving this issue with too many acorns? One of my thoughts was an ocasional purge of the combiners but you can't suck items out of the input slot in combiners. Another thought was to put a break in the feed and put in a barrel buffer. Then set up 2 servos that out put at the accurate speed (4 accorns per stack and 5 sap per stack). And I think that is what I will be using if no one else has an even better idea about how to solve this issue.
