    My entire house blew up from unshielded cable. As an engineer, I'm totally ashamed of myself.

    Was there a massive rollback? My base has gone back to what it was 3-4 days ago :(

    Any chance we could get one of those maps of the server? :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 891 ✭✭✭MakaDonVeli


    Server map will be available for download when we switch to a new one :)

    Where does idea of a new map keep coming from, people have already said they don't want a new map ??:confused:


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 18,377 Mod ✭✭✭✭Solitaire


    No point in a new map unless stable Tekkit comes out for 1.3 and won't work with the current mapgen.

    I just wish certain blocks (anything EE-related, certain BC machines and also crystal ores once Thaum goes SMP) would be permanently linked to a user once placed similar to IC's Personal Safe, as it could allow for a plugin that limited the number of a certain block a user could place. Then the dreaded spectre of exponential growth would be nixed without having to remove half of Tekkit ;)

    Oh i know sol, people don't even have to try any more, for the first two weeks people were asking to refill quarries but now they don't even use them.
    Because of energy collectors.

    i don't mind people having them, but having 50 is ridiculous

    Hi Wossack, Yes there is a few items that are banned on the server, items like the destruction catalyst are banned because they can level a house in seconds. Other destructive items are also banned e.g. Nukes , Nova TNT etc

    Another admin is making a list of the banned items and should have it soon enough *Cough* Podge *Cough*

    not sure if its a coincidence, but I think it crashed when I flipped a switch in my house hooked up to some pistons. crashed twice I think, and I hit the switch each time :o

    Jesus i'd hope that wouldn't cause a crash, we'd have to do restarts every 5 mins :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,027 ✭✭✭Wossack


    coulda been nout :p

    took my infernal machine apart anyway - redalloy wire be damned


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,184 ✭✭✭Kenno90


    I've noticed people building machines which is great and all, but people need to maintain them. One machine i found is designed to collect EE energy and create a ton of resources which are then sorted into alchemy chests.

    The thing with this one though is that all the chests are now full so any extra resources are thrown out of the pipes, having that many entities on the ground causes the server to lag very bad. I've disabled that machine but there could be others doing a similar thing.

    On another note, I'm liking this

    > On another note, I'm liking this

    I spent 2 hours last night to program a turtle to lay a wooden floor of 64 blocks, turn around and then do the next row, on and on... ComputerCraft is a whole new game within Tekkit.

    very cool computercraft tutorials Kenno, thanks

    was looking for a good while on youtube for some more advanced ones, and those are the best Ive seen


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,184 ✭✭✭Kenno90


    Ye people just kind of use industrial craft , build craft and EE. Have only seen a few computers on the server.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,027 ✭✭✭Wossack


    Big IC and buildcraft user in the past, so am really trying to get into redpower, EE and now computercraft. Redpower, with the new pipes (maybe not new, but Ive not played MC in 6+ months :P), looks really promising - and now computercraft? awesomeness

    A simple solution is to turn it (read: the item pumps, not the condenser itself) off before leaving it unattended for a long period, especially if its near a WorldAnchor! :p

    A finite but effective solution for people with a fair bit of EMC to play with is to pop an Alchemical Chest right next to where the stuff will fall out and pop a Black Hole Band and possibly even a Jewel of Infinite Density inside the chest, turning it into a drop hoover ;)

    I've also noticed another phenomenon: fire spreading was originally turned off, which was a lucky thing back when I was trying to work out how to work my Arcana (back when it was in-game) :oNow is no longer the case. And in Tekkit fire spreads further than the vanilla 3x3x6! I've flown around and seen lots of fire damage and even some gutted buildings, and most of them had a netherrack fireplace inside...

    The're not bad solutions , thanks sol. Even having some obsidian pipes to suck up any dropped items would fix it.

    As for the fire damage, that might have been left on after we did the server migration, We'll have to look it up :D

    LOL! Can't believe I forgot about obsidian pipes, especially given how I use them myself! :o

    Spreading is also wonky, as vanilla-compliant fireplaces are still burning stuff down - I experimented with mine after it gutted the inside of my tower and noticed fire spreading to wooden stairs 5-6 blocks above the fire - the normal vertical spread is 1 below and 4 above. Needless to say I replaced a good few stairs with stone ones and the house fires stopped, but as I was flying around the server checking out new stuffs I noticed some wood houses had been gutted.

    Oh! One final thing: this is a PvE server, so can people please upgrade their external doors to iron ASAP? I also saw a lot of buildings minus doors as zombies had pwned the wooden ones, and while I could replace Scody's with an iron one as his was Lockette'd I can't upgrade places with no door locks :p I also saw lots of chests without Lockette, which is a bit dangerous given some buildings have unprotected roof access... EE blocks DO work with Lockette on this server! ;)

    I have persistently reminded people to lock chests and doors. I even made a custom lockette config for all the EE stuff.

    Lockette should stop zombles breaking wooden doors too afaik.


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 18,377 Mod ✭✭✭✭Solitaire


    It doesn't, can't remember what extra plugin was used on the Boards 1.2 server, on this one locked wooden doors still get popped, I gave up trying to protect my mineshaft against zombie attacks back at the beginning as I was having a hard enough job just keeping the front door on before I upgraded it :p

    I had assumed it did. I'll look into the anti-zombie-breaking-doors plugin.

    I play on the server with 5 others but lockette only supports 3 names on a sign so we don't lock chests.
