I have a max-size Railcraft oil tank which has been 200 buckets below full (20,736 buckets is completely full) for the last two days...

...except that I've been pulling oil out and running it thru a row of Buildcraft refineries the entire time! So far the refineries have converted almost 10,000 buckets of oil into fuel... and the oil tank level hasn't dropped 1 millibucket the entire time.

There's no input into the tank, I removed it. There is only a TE3 fluiduct with servo on the valve and the TE3 sending tesseract.

What is going on here? Could this possibly be a bug that nobody has discovered yet? I doubt that, very much, but it does seem to be a bug and I've seen it happen with two different tanks (slickwater and oil).

Monster pack, by the way, and I'm still on v1.1.0 since i had item ID conflicts when I tried to update (I loaded up an older save and kept going)

Yeah, I've noticed liquids duping in fluiducts in my Agrarian skies world. I fixed it by breaking and replacing the fluiducts.

If the tank is the only thing that doesn't seem to be working properly, hence it not registering changes in fluid level, then try breaking a corner block and replacing it. "Refreshing" the multiblock seems like a possibility.

It's definitely not the Railcraft tank, I just broke a corner block and replaced it. No change to fluid level, either immediately or after waiting a while for refineries to process some oil.[DOUBLEPOST=1398285852][/DOUBLEPOST]

Thanks Wagon, I will go report this as a TE3 bug with either tesseract or fluiducts.[DOUBLEPOST=1398285938][/DOUBLEPOST]
Report it but i've seen 2-3 other people with the same "problem"

I know, I've been laughing about it myself - but it is obv bothering me too, and honestly, I would hope the TE3 dev team would appreciate knowing about it.

How in the heck do I start a private conversation with someone? The forum rules say I need to start a private conversation with someone about this but I can't figure out how to do that. sigh Why is this so difficult?

Nevermind, it's in "INBOX" which isn't very intuitive to me.

Where do you expect it to be? Alerts? :p

I've mentioned in another thread that I've had the opposite problem with tesseracts -- whenever I try to use one to transport fluid it just disappears into nowhere (goes out of the source but never arrives at the target). No problems with items or energy, even through the same tesseract.

I definitely had that myself. I was producing more stuff than I was consuming, yet it kept draining my tanks like a black hole.

I guess nobody cares, I reported this in private conversation but no response. So be it. Forum rules say duplication bugs should be discussed privately which I didn't realize, but at least I tried.

I'll find it for you, give me a few minutes to look for the page, it's pretty hidden.

Okay, it's right in the pinned thread at the top of this subforum.

http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/important-information-links-read-before-posting.27657/

Very first post by JadedCat, click on "Where To Post Your Topic" and at the bottom is this:

As a reminder, if you have discovered a bug involving the duplication of items, please start a private Conversation with Lathanael and Wyld rather than posting publicly about it.

Since I saw Wyld hasn't logged in since December, and since it seemed like JadedCat is handling all the modpack bug reports, I sent my convo to her. I know she's very busy, and I know I didn't send it to the person I was supposed to, so it was probably my mistake.

Yeah, I'm still not certain if it's tesseracts, fluiducts, or some combination of both that causes this issue. I was gonna go into creative to see if I can duplicate it (no pun intended) but I haven't had the time or the motivation.
