Why won't my system import items all of a sudden?

Using the direwolf 20 pack, and this was running fine when I went to bed, now it isn't doing nothing despite there being plenty of space.

Could you clarify?

Are items going into the drives but not the DSU? The picture above shows you looking at a DSU.

How are you putting stuff into the system? Are you interacting with an ME Interface? Are you using a wireless remote? Are you using an ender pouch attached to an ender chest somewhere?

In the second pic, you apppear to be looking at an ender chest, so I assume that's where your hangup is.

There's no chance of your cobble storage being full, right?

All I can see for sure is that you appear to be a very hungry, wounded bat. :)
 
I know this forum is all about modded minecraft but jeeze do you have to make a new thread for this question? Maybe you ran out of channels. Maybe you need to just disconnect your AE system for a sec.

Ugh so you are one of those bat form guys? I hate bat form guys.

How my setup works is there is an Ender Chest on top of an Ender Quarry in the deep dark. In the overworld, I have 3 import buses with 4 acceleration cards each in there to ensure it stays clear. The left pic is the ender chest, the right pic is the drives. As you can see there is ample storage in the drives, but for whatever reason it just stopped importing at some point over night.

I do have wireless access, but my issue is from the chest itself. I can withdraw items just fine, both at the terminal, and via wireless. I do have an ender pouch attached to the ender chest in that left pic. Unless the amount of items the DSU got drastically reduced to around 12-13 million, it is no where near full. But I am going to assume the storage limit, unless I am told otherwise is around 2 billion.

Yes I am a hungry bat, I hate eating in game, lol. My nephew busts my chops for it all the time.

It isn't against the rules to, but if it is bothering you, you could always simply ignore it ;).

As for your questions, channels aren't an issue as I have them disabled. I honestly prefer blaze form since it doesn't mess with the height, but blaze + rain = dead, so that's why I stay bat. :)

I will try the disconnect/connect thing to see if that helps.
 
Actually not letting me put items in now via either method, but I can withdraw just fine.

Removing that interface there in the left pic seems to have fixed it. Is it possible that it's accepting items to fast, and for whatever reason just got busted?
 
You're saying when you remove the ME Interface everything imports fine?

If you add any other device (that counts as a device) on that line, does it cease working again?

If so, that sounds like even though you have channels turned off, it's behaving like they aren't.

I re-added the interface, and it stopped again. I have 2 filing cabinets behind that ender chest (with storage buses). But when I have the 1hooked up is when it stops working. If it's full, perhaps that is what is backing everything up or w/e? Not really sure, but it's disconnected with the interface on there, and is working fine. Still wondering what is causing it.
 
Definitely sounds like Channels are not disabled. Plonk down a piece of ME smart cable and see if it's trying to use channels.

Channels are disabled. When I disabled them, I lost the ability to craft smart, and dense cables, and can only craft glass cable, and covered cable, no smart ones :(

Can ME cable loops cause this issue at all? Cause I do think I have a loop or 2 around my base. I also have difficulty auto-crafting stuff as well, so perhaps rearranging the layout of my cables will help. What I still can't fathom is why this all of a sudden happened, literally overnight, and was running fine for a few weeks without an issue.
 
They should still be available with NEI cheat mode.

Use a network tool and ensure you're getting enough power to the system. It might be turning on and off instead of running steadily.

I thought that may have been the issue, so I gave it a more stable supply of power (around 20k via a ender conduit by tesseract)


Side note .... I am going to be moving to a void age anyways, do you have any tips that I can use to make a stable one? Preferably with either a normal day/night cycle, or the sun staying at high noon?
