Redstone Motor Change

[Wazz]

With the change to redstone motors not being able to connect to wooden conductive pipe causes me a bit of an issue. Does anyone have a way to reverse this change without to much trouble. Thanks in advance for any help or advice.

You may still be able to chain them together. The reason it was removed though was because it was OP so I would suggest not doing this.

I understand why it was removed and I do agree with it being OP. Although I already have a very large setup and would like to continue using it if at all possible. I would love to be able to reverse this change until we create a new world when Ultimate is released.

Redstone engines don't produce MJ anymore, so unless you are powering a wooden pipe, getting conductive pipes to work won't help

They do produce mj, they just can't connect to wooden conductive pipes anymore because that allowed people to create infinite free energy with laggy setups. I once played on a server where nearly everyone made huge setups with hundreds of redstone engines and it lagged the server so much they had to setup a free energy system.

We use many sources of power solar, fuel, lava ,etc. that is not my issue. We use that source fro just one reason and would like to continue using it until we create a new world when Ultimate comes out. I fully understand why the change was made. I am the host of a private server just played by myself and a few friends. I would love to be able to reverse this until the new pack is released but if there is no way that is fine.

I am curious though how you all suggest to start producing MJ on new world?

 

[TheSandwichMakr]

I just figured out that my solution does not work because redstone engines now only connect to wooden transport pipes rather than simply not connecting to wooden conductive pipes. There's no way to do it anymore, as the mod authors intended. Peat engines work well for me though. Just make a sand generator and bucket filler to craft peat and stick it in a peat bog, you can power the peat bog and turburary with one peat engine so you have enough peat for nine more.

Considering running combustion engine banks off bio fuel with a gate system to turn off bank that gets hot and start a new bank. I want to go big can I produce enough bio fuel to fuel 50+ engines. I know its not needed but I like building things that are big.
