EvilGrins TEkkit Server

[burundi]

I need to re-site my quarry machines, they've both got down to bedrock.

Are both ends (including anything connected to them) within range of a dimensional anchor or chunk loader? The server is very aggressive about unloading chunks so unless you force chunks to load then your stuff within them wont work correctly.

[Nephand]

Will try that - none of my quarries thus far have been. The pre-existing working one wasn't but had been working anyway and now isn't - may be to do with the giant chunks my quarries are taking out of the locale, load balancing might have kicked in (if it's that intelligent?). If it still isn't after then I'll let you know.

[EvilGrin]

I've noted (even in Single Player) quarries that span multiple chunks generally don't work properly. It's much faster to have lots of smaller quarries than one big one anyway.

[Nephand]

Gave a world anchor (or two) a try, no success. Tried plonking down a quarry without land marking, just for the default size but still wasn't having it. Will try just running a pipe directly, without the teleportation, tomorrow to see if it is the teleport pipes or just me being bad at tekkit!

[EvilGrin]

I will come and inspect tonight. What time are you on?

[Nephand]

Will be on and off most of the evening - hopefully more on. Don't worry about logging in especially, I'm not desperate for the quarries to be up and running - just catch me as and when.

[D'oh, that said the server's having a siesta!]

[EvilGrin]

Sorry, new IP. 76.74.200.86

[Nephand]

Aha, thank you - quarries are running again too. (no apparent reason, just turned the reactor on and away they went!)

Aye until it eventually hits diamond level and its fucking metals galore! im sure i had a chest full of bronze and tin it was mental!

[Nephand]

Still getting strange behaviour from the wireless power - but too tired to care now!

Got phase 1 of the automatic solar array manufacturing facility up and running. [if you go there, and you see a creeper, you run! Run, you fools!]

Also, my sorting machine that deals with the quarry output is weirdly behaved. It seems to spontaneously just stop sorting, then when I give it a whack with the screwdriver, flipping it back to its original position, it'll kick in again for a little while. Think I need to improve that setup anyway, it has trouble keeping up with the input when the quarries are at full pelt.

[Sin]

Its best to put a chest on the diamond pipes just incase uv not got something in the sorter or indeed its getting over flow, or u can have a obsidian pipe near it that repipes it for u

/warp rogan and go to the back of my house were the sorting pipe is ul see what i mean about the chest!

[Nephand]

Cheers!

EG had a gander at the quarry receiving teleport power issue, but just confirmed I wasn't entirely inept - it was indeed 'broken' (aka I couldn't get it to work and neither could he).

Fixed it.... by running conductive pipes. :f

[EvilGrin]

Yeah feck knows what was going on.

[burundi]

item Teleport pipes are borked for me. A couple of quarries that were working fine a couple of days ago now won't transmit the items back to base.

[EvilGrin]

Well I've not changed anything on the server, there are no errors in the logs or excessive CPU/memory usage (not like when you made an infinite loop with liquid teleport pipes for example). All I can suggest is that you break and re-do the pipes.

[EvilGrin]

Here's a little preview of Thaumcraft 3 from the Forgecraft SMP server used by the devs for a lot of mods (this server basically has everything the FTB mod pack will when released).

[EvilGrin]

EE3 Pre1 is out if you want to play around with it.

http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/...xchange-3-pre1

Pahimar seems to of addressed a lot of the imbalance concerns of EE2.

[burundi]

I've tried breaking and placing the teleport item pipes again and got the same issue, nothing was being transmitted, I then tried changing the channel on one of the sending pipes and it's now crashed on me, and continues to crash out my client when I try to log back in.

[EvilGrin]

Ok, let me see if there's anything server side. Last time you had that sort of crashing issue I seem to recall it was because there was an infinite loop in your pipe network.

[EvilGrin]

There are no errors in the server logs. Can you post the error log from your client crash?

[EvilGrin]

Your java is out of date. Update to JRE7 for a start.

[EvilGrin]

Also, does it work in single player? or does that crash too?

[EvilGrin]

Logged in and warped over to your base. Opened up the interface on your teleport pipe ok. Seems to be on frequency 3 with nothing connected? I didn't crash.

[burundi]

That the receive end in the base? Out in the quarry is where i changed the pipe to 4.

[burundi]

ok, it allowed me in on my home pc which may have JRE7 and I got rid of 1 of the teleport pipes (I had 2 feeding one receiver) and it started to work again, the senders were very close to each other, like 2 blocks, so i combined the quarry outputs into 1 sender.

I have had 2 senders talking to 1 receiver before but the senders were in different chunks.

[EvilGrin]

Sounds like the install on your work PC is screwed up. 2 senders to 1 receiver should work ok.

[burundi]

I'll bin the files at lunchtime, let it reinstall and see if it's any better. Ta.

[EvilGrin]

Cool. The FTB mod pack launcher beta is out. So I'll be tinkering with that this week then probably run a test of SMP at the weekend.

Edit: download url for the FTB Launcher http://nallar.me/ftb/b/
