Thanks for all those who pointed out F6.
I'm suggesting a chunk loader people will actually use [last time I checked MFR chunkloader consumed ender pearls to work]. As far as chunkloading and using itemducts/conduits to cross chunks...that's still a no-no. Items can/will get stuck in the duct and cause lag. Even energy conduits are suspect to this problem. I've seen this happen numerous times on AgS playthrough and I'm not the only one. Conduits/ducts are easy to make but very hard to make a chunkloader early/mid game.
Even without crossing chunks, if you have any automation setup with TE3 ducts/conduits and you leave the area [to go exploring in the city], your base gets unloaded and automation stops working/ducts get stuffed or confused/stop working even after you return. KingLemming has stated only way to fix this is to insure those chunks are always loaded.
MFR chunkloader never used ender pearls. That is Railcraft's chunkloading fuel.
MFR uses RF/MJ and can be made more efficient with mob essence.
I added Immibis' Dimensional Anchors to the pack. Been my loader of choice for awhile now. It simply works. Place and forget. No chunk resets(yet, knock on wood).
This. Also, anchors are cheap. If they weren't, I'd have no problem cheating them in, either. You shouldn't need to craft an item (and you certainly shouldn't need to power it) to fix a broken game mechanic. It makes some sense to limit loaders on servers, but for SSP? Plop down as many as your machine can handle.
The problem is specifically is that when a grid of some form of duct go across a chunk and one(As long as it's not all simultaneously unloaded) of the chunks it is within is unloaded while another is loaded. If you confine duct networks to single chunks and use chests/tanks/energy cells as buffers where the ducts would normally cross the chunk boundary there will be no issues because the ducts are confined to a single chunk.
iskandar should just toss an 'always on' chunkloader at bedrock level, inside a bedrock box, directly below the starting ship. that way, there's never any problems with chunk unloading for people who play the 'normal' way. those that go the route of running directly to the cities (like seems to be the thing to do nowadays), don't need this because they will likely have access to chunkloaders by the time they move on from the first city.
can anyone confirm this?
Yes. Lost a couple that way not paying attention. Great method to level a mattock fast though.
Yes. It's happened to me and also I've seen it happen on Wyld's (Twitch streamer) stream.
The reply wasn't meant for you - it was for someone else having nei trouble
Look under third party of the FTB launcher if you haven't found the pack yet.
It isn't just ducts, though. Some MFR machines seem to fail on unload/reload of chunks too. Though I suppose that could be because of a stuffed output somewhere along the line, though the machines appear completely dead as the "heartbeat/work" bar doesn't move at all.
As far as ducts go it is kind of funny considering I switched away from Buildcraft transport to Thermal Expansion transport specifically because of how TE's just seemed to magically work across multiple chunks without issue in 1.4x/1.5x. 1.6 has seen me go back to BC in packs where I have the option. I've managed to corrupt a save in practically every 1.6.x pack I've played, thanks to Thermal Expansion.

so iskandar says 1.1.2a is up, but i'm not seeing it. i'm guessing it's a matter of the FTB guys updating the launcher lists or something?
