Gregtech machines - Now how do you remove them?

[Cougar281]

In the past, GT machines had to be wrenched to remove them... Well, last night, I wanted to pull up my 'Automatic E-Furnace' in favor of the superior Induction Furnace, and when I tried the Electric Wrench as well as the Omni-Wrench, neither of which pulled up the machine. In a moment of tired stupidity, after none of the wrenches worked, I broke it with my mining drill.... About rage quitted. Fortunately the damage wasn't too severe and the machines that got nuked weren't too bad... a few GT machines that I was going to replace anyway, my MassFab and my ME Crafting interface, two Iron chest, one empty and the other didn't have too much of value (I don't think), tons of cobble and dirt spilled from broken barrels.... ANYWAY, I did some testing in SP and NONE of the wrenches took up ANY GT machines I tried, including machines that were present in Ultimate that I HAVE taken up with the Omni Wrench. Specifically, I tested the Implosion Compressor - In Ultimate, the Electric Wrench took it up but the Omni Wrench did not. Some other GT Machines came up with the Omni wrench no problem IIRC. In 1.5 neither took it up.

The only wrench I found that did take up the GT machines was the Force Wrench... seemed to work fine in SP, although it seemed odd that it was the only one to work.

Made one in MP and took up the last GT 'Automatic' machine (The Automatic Compressor), and got a strange 'block' that says "You ran into a serious Bug, if you have legitly aquired this block, please report it immidietly 6304".

Any thoughts?

The omni-wrench no longer works on GregTech machines, however, GregTech adds four new wrenches: Iron, Bronze, Steel, and Tungstensteel. One of those should work.

Strange... Pretty sure I tried every wrench in NEI list... I'll have to try again.

It's because the Force Wrench doesn't rely on mod APIs to work like most wrenches. It pillages and plunders without asking for permission, which what makes it so effective and so disaster-prone at the same time.

Didn't think Ultimate had the Omniwrench nerf? Thought that was a 1.5 onwards sort of thing.

There's fair number of people who are adding greg-tech into unleashed pack, enough that they reworked the config to let gregtech be a plug and play

Ultimate doesn't. The omniwrench worked there. It was in 1.5 where 'SURPRISE! The omniwrench doest work any more..

Yeah... But I was talking about Ultimate.

Indeed you were, I was attempting to be informative and helpful is all

all I was saying is how people can get omnitools and greg-tech in the same mod on 1.5.2 as none of the packs by default contain this combination.

**takes it you meant to say "can't get"**
I keep forgetting that. The server I play on uses a custom pack based on the 156Wgt with extra bits n bobs.
Playing unhinged ATM Single player and omni tools is indeed not present.

I did mean what I wrote, but can't also works in that context

oh wonderful English language. How you mess with us all.

i`m pretty sure after copying addition of GT`s omniwrenches, KL added functionality to original omniwrench to manipulate GT machines via GT API.
so if it doesnt work it means there were changes in GT API, which means greg is jealous yet another re balance.

Gregtech has changed wrenching mechanics to be microblock-esque. Its described at the bottom of this thread:
http://www.reddit.com/r/feedthebeast/comments/1hsr0c/

Essentially, right click on the center of a block 2 times at most for a pickup. It only picks up from one side and the other sides rotate the machine to face you if you click the center.

However, if you're clicking the edges of the machine, it rotates differently. This can be useful for compact gregtech item management machine chains where you can't get behind a translocator or buffer, etc.
