Assembly Table. Borked?

[Edrosty]

I'm trying to make some Pulsating chipsets to help create datachips for Advanced Machine Casings, but the progress bar on the assembly table isn't going anywhere.

As you can see from my setup in the screenshots, I have 8 lasers powered, 8 engines total that are modded with chips, as shown in the 2nd screenshot, with Hybrid Solar Panels powering them, 1 Panel to 2 engines. My question is, is the Assembly table broken, or what?

I'd say try it again with the redstone energy conduits instead of conductive pipes and see if the problem still persist.

Weird thing is, it worked once (Before I posted this). I have 2 pulsating chipsets, but now it doesn't seem to want to work at all. I'll try the conduits.

Looks like there is an infinite loop. The conductive pipes aren't smart. Break one of the pipes, and try again so a loop doesn't occur.

That fixed it. Thank you very much Way.

No problem. If you insist on using conductive pipes more often, remember that two wooden pipes will not connect to each other. This method can be used to prevent a loop from happening at all. So, you can still fit the max of 16 lasers on that setup.

I'd really recommend in such a setup to use conduits. They will have less loss and no chance of blowing up or looping around.

I just made a stack for that reason ^.^
