Hey guys & gals,
So this may simply be due to my noobishness, but please help me out. I'm trying to set up my geothermal generator and I have a massive lava lake at diamond level below my (surface) house. However, I don't seem to be able to get any kind of pump to pump it up to me. I've tried both the buildcraft and the industrialcraft pumps, I've tried setting up a buildcraft mining well, taking it down and upgrading it to a pump, but the buildcraft pump simply seems to do nothing at all even though I've tried powering it with everything from a redstone engine to an electrical engine. What am I doing wrong? In desperation I just went down and put a Industrialcraft pump right above the lave lake, and I found that it would only produce one lava cell, after which it would fill up, but not produce another. What am I doing wrong? Any good and up-to-date tutorials you can point me to?
Cheers!
