gollark: Any ideas for making a cool nice-looking base? I want more space than my current towery design provides.

gollark: (I wanted viaducts. Due to recipe changes and their cascading effects, they're now far more expensive.)

gollark: Yay for CraftTweaker allowing me to change annoying TE recipes!

gollark: It does seem to work now, which is cool - I can just stick a spatial cell into a chest, register it, and then just type into a computer to swap in the one I want.

gollark: My power is provided entirely by NuclearCraft and a currently-offline lava backup.
