Auto Mining?

[Avori19]

How should I manage the auto mining on my FTB Unleashed server. There is a problem with turtles breaking protected blocks, as well as the problems with quarries being able to chunk oading large areas. Is there any known fixes or other alternatives.

So, you want an auto-mining solution that isn't chunk loaded, and doesn't break protected (LWC/core protect?) blocks? None come to mind, but you could tell players not to make quarry's larger than x by x

What makes BC quarries huge are the landmarks. Without landmarks, quarries are *just* 9x9. Someone would have to pony up a lot of diamonds to keep a lot of chunks loaded with 9x9's.

Haven't tried it myself, but see if changing either of these to 0 keep quarries to 9x9:

minecraft@miguknamja:~/forge-1.6.4/config/buildcraft$ grep -i mark main.conf
I:marker.id=1504
I: pathMarker.id=1518

Hm, thats a good idea! I have a plugin that can ban the craft, and using of items so ill do that thanks!

There's also the Arcane Bore from Thaumcraft. It doesn't chunk load (by what Azanor has said). Not sure how it interacts with protected blocks, but it's worth a test.

Steve's Carts can mine for you using choo-choo trains.
