    ReactorCraft steam boilers not accepting water, Monster 1.1.0

    Ok, so: I've added the fifth turbine, didn't realize it needed so much room, I just figured it wasn't allowing me to add one because 4 was the max. I've changed the steam lines to not merge, but connect to the grate directly. Here's an upwards-ish shot: http://imgur.com/RRgVkXh Here's a...

    ReactorCraft steam boilers not accepting water, Monster 1.1.0

    Here's my current setup: http://imgur.com/I3HFzKF I'm trying a 3x3 fuel core with boilers on the edges based on a description from another thread. I have a single steam vent, with a single turbine connected to a shaft power bus controller with about 16 shaft buses. Seems to top out at...

    ReactorCraft steam boilers not accepting water, Monster 1.1.0

    I saw your reply on the other thread... I'm not sure what the issue is because mine is built at sea level, in the desert. An update corrected the water issue described here and my boilers always report being full even when hot, so I know flow issues aren't a factor. I'll take some pics and try...

    ReactorCraft - clever reactor setups?

    Do you have any pics/more details about this setup? I tried to replicate it - been learning rotary/reactorcraft the past few days. I have a 3x3 grid of fuel cores, with 1 layer of boilers on the sides like you describe. I finally got the turbine working, it's going through an 8:1 gear to a power...

    ReactorCraft steam boilers not accepting water, Monster 1.1.0

    I've managed to get something working, though there have some "undocumented" issues to get through. I have a 3x3 fuel core with 1 row of boilers on the outside, and that seems to hover between 50-300MW. In some early tests it got up to 450MW, but overall I need to find a way to get it higher...

    Rotarycraft shaft power bus not producing output

    That was the issue... thanks!

    Rotarycraft shaft power bus not producing output

    I've connected a shaft power bus controller to a turbine (for steam from a reactor) I've made. The shaft power bus has lubricant, and reports that a ton of energy is coming in. I've connected a shaft power bus to the side (have tried all three), placed a diamond shaft into the colored slot...

    Distribute rotarycraft power evenly?

    I'm a few days into rotarycraft/reactorcraft. I'm currently exploring my first reactor - for now I'll be using rotational dynamos for conversion to RF - however I'm producing more rotational power than any one thing can intake and I've read some example setups that "distribute power to 16...

    ReactorCraft steam boilers not accepting water, Monster 1.1.0

    That works - the boilers now show full tanks and I'm getting a tiny bit of steam. Do you have any good designs/examples you can point me to? The examples I've seen in some videos aren't producing enough steam to do anything for me.

    ReactorCraft steam boilers not accepting water, Monster 1.1.0

    I'm trying to make my first ReactorCraft reactor. Just a simple one with a few fuel cores and steam boilers. According to the handbook, wiki, and tutorial videos, the water pipes should be connected to the bottom of the boilers. I've tried using rotarycraft liquidpipes/pump, fluiduct, and water...

    FTB Unleashed chunk loaders not affecting ic2 machines?

    A bit of additional research and it seems like this is yet another bug with mcpc+. I was incorrect, this doesn't appear to be problem with the default ftb server jar.

    FTB Unleashed chunk loaders not affecting ic2 machines?

    We're running ftb unleashed 1.1.2. I've been running it both with the default server jar, and with mcpc+. In both cases, the chunk loader I'm using in my house doesn't seem to be working for ic2 machines. Ex: I'll leave for several hours. My extruders will continue to produce cobble, (14k...

    Recommended bukkit-compatible server jar?

    I used to use mcpc+ for 1.4.7 with ftb ultimate, but now that we've updated to FTB Unleashed 1.1.2, the latest mcpc+ 1.5 builds aren't working - no matter what memory I give the jar on startup it begins crashing with permgen errors (always "caused" by random plugins/classes).I tried getting help...

    Plasma generators stop accepting cells when connected to more than one machine?

    Additionally, I have two plasma gens connected via hv wire to my energy injectors and they too stop accepting cells after the first one. Normally I'd be pumping plasma to them but until the power issues are solved for the deuterium banks, I can't sustain the reactor.

    Plasma generators stop accepting cells when connected to more than one machine?

    http://d.pr/i/RKHF This is luckily just a temporary setup as far as the generators go, but: - Plasma generators are setup with output side connected to the HV cable block. - The hv cable connects each generator to one, or two AESUs. - The AESUs power (at 512eu) a row of industrial...

    Plasma generators stop accepting cells when connected to more than one machine?

    I have been setting up Plasma gens to power some centrifuge plants getting ready to run my fusion reactor continuously. I have temporarily made some plasma cells and have placed them into the plasma generators. I have three generators - all connected to some AESUs via HV cable. I've noticed...

    More efficient way to heat ic2 machines?

    But the cf block is below the machine, level with the floor. I can't have the glass cable come out of it at the side, otherwise I have no room for my floor block

    More efficient way to heat ic2 machines?

    This doesn't work for me though, the problem is that the redstone would still need to apply to the foam block below the furnace, which is the block level with the floor. The only way to apply a redstone signal without messing up the floor is to apply the signal below the foam block, which is...

    Auto-craft as items enter m.e. network?

    I've asked on IRC and no one had any useful info. As certain materials enter my matter/energy network, I'd like to have something to auto-craft them. I have auto-smelting, etc setup for things like raw beef -> steak. Example: I have 20k tiny piles of copper dust, but there's never a use for...
