    Now, you're going to read this title and tell me, "It's not impossible blah blah blah blah", no, it's impossible to do it within your lifetime, and here's why:

    The energy core can be filled with 9223372036854775807 rf (2^63-1 rf), this is a large number, now:

    assuming you have 250 million rf/t production (Yes, I know, 99.9999% of people will never have this production rate, that's why i'm using it) it will take (2^63-1)/(250000000*20*60*60*24*365.25) years to complete, this is 58 years! At 2 BILLION rf/t it takes 7 years to fill!

    You're not going to fill it, it is unnecessary to attempt, thanks for the read

    welllll, 1 trillion rf/t, chunk loaded, boom!
    and actually, sure its running on a 64 bit system but the rf has no way of becomming negative, its just 1 dimensional. positive without negatives. that means that its not ^63 but ^64 as we dont need that last one to decide wether its positive or negative. so i guess it would take twice as long as you said xD

    actually, no, internally it's stored as a java long (in the source code), java's longs are signed, and therefore it is 2^63-1 Long (Java Platform SE 7 )

    Honestly I just want to try this on a single player world and see if you'd be able to fill it playing alone first.

    You just got unbanned, don't do anything resource heavily on the server or it might get you in trouble.
