    Need help with quarry and Aplied energistics

    That is rather massive, and also rather inefficient. Observe how the internal buffer is completely full because the Power Tap cannot drain the power fast enough. The temperature is also deep in the red zone.

    Redstone Energy Conduits max out at 10k RF/t, so you would need five separate Conduit lines to take all that power as fast as it is produced. Which means five Power Taps, each with sufficient intermediate power storage along the line. I suggest you dial it back to 90% and see how hot it gets. Anything beyond 1000°C is considered inefficient, and is only recommended if you intend to run a breeder for quick Cyanite production (and remember that it will burn through your Yellorite supply very quickly).

     

    You can also achieve higher output with less resources if you cluster the rods together in groups of 2x2 or 3x3, and generally use less rods to compensate for the increased heat.

     

    All this of course is overshadowed by the efficiency of an actively-cooled reactor, i.e. one running Turbines. Compare my >old project, which produces double the output of yours with a significantly smaller Yellorium footprint. Granted, it took a massive investment of Iron, Coal and Cyanite up front to build the Turbines.

     

    It's of course fine if you are happy with it. Just pointing out where you could improve.

     

    Oh, didn't know the conduits had a limit, the technic wiki only says this:

    The Redstone Energy Conduit is a type of wire used to move Buildcraft energy around. The conduit is able to move significantly more energy than conductive pipes, and it doesn't explode like conductive pipes do when overloaded. In addition, the pipes only suffer a 5% energy loss, regardless of distance, compared to 5% per block for stone and 0.5% per block for gold conductive pipes. The ends where it connects to blocks are directionally keyed - blue means energy is going into the block, orange means energy is coming out. This can be changed by right-clicking the end with a Buildcraft-compatible wrench.

    Redstone Energy Conduit is created by filling Energy Conduit with Destabilized Redstone in a Liquid Transposer. (200mB per piece of conduit)

     

    One of the doubts i had is if an active cooled reactor with turbine was more efficient than a passive cooled one, so you say it is. I will try it in creative first so i can compare.

     

    Your vertical reactor seems very interesting, and i can also save resonant ender with the infinite vertical flowing. Hmm... i have to make one (or two :D)

    But one question, why so much tesseracts? they have a power limit too? Im just using one right now to output the power to my main power network.

     

     

    Thanks a lot for the tips, im still learning and trying tekkit stuff :D

    You just need Yellorite. Uranium is from Atomic Science, and as far as I'm aware, the Fission Reactors built around it are not working properly. My >guide has a recipe for a nice little starter reactor (point 17), which you can of course scale up as you like.

     

    If you are short on Yellorite Ore after all, an MFR Unifier will allow you to turn Uranium into more Yellorite (and also the other way around, if you so desire).

     

    I have finished my reactor, if you are curious this is it, its a 7x7x21 all resonant ender cooled with control rods at 50%:

    Im also keeping my older magmatic lava setup, just in case i need a backup power line :)

    Hi guys, just for you to know, my setup is finally complete and working, this is how i did it:

     

    I have fuel setup that consist in a pump powered with a redstone engine extracting infinite* lava from the nether, and giving it with a fluiduct to a nether tank, that teleports the lava to my basement in the overworld.

    *(i know it's not infinite, but its a HUGE supply, and i always can move the setup to another lava lake.)

    My basement receives with another ender tank the infinite* supply of lava from the nether and the lava flows in the fluiducts wall. Then I built a wall of magmatic engines powering a third wall of redstone conduit energy pipes.

     

    Those pipes connect to some machines in my house and most important, to the tesseract (you can see it in the bottom right of the redstone conduit wall).

    This tesseract sends energy to my remote tesseract, and also receives items from remote tesseracts that goes to the regular minecraft chest. The chest have a precision import bus that withdraws all stuff into my me network.

    Then for further processing, i have 3 precision export buses that extract the items i want to go to the pulverizer and the induction smelter, then the procesed items goes back to the regular minecraft chest with golden transport pipes, and as i just said, all the things in the regular chest goes to the me network.

    This is my remote quarry setup, it's simple, quarry next to a tesseract (for item teleporting) and 2 redstone conduits to connect the energy.

    Hi people! I need your wisdom to solve this little problem i have.

     

    I want the items i mine with the quarry to go to my applied energistics network, but i tried several solutions and none of them worked as expected.

     

     

    The only setup i had working is this:

     

    QUARRY -> TESSERACT (next to quarry) -> TESSERACT (my house) -> regular chest -> ME precision import bus -> ME cable -> ME drive

     

    The problem with that setup is that quarry fills the regular chest at top speed and the ME precision import bus does it slower than quarry, so items overflow in about a minute.

     

    I also tried to "buffer" the tesseract output in a ME chest directly with a 4K storage cell, and the items fill in it without problems, but, even having that 4k buffer chest in the network an setting the ME drive in highest priority, items wont leave 4k chest.

     

     

    What im i missing here? i think it can't be that difficult...

     

    Thanks in advance :)

    Tesseract isn't sending items

    BC pipes and tesseracts have issues with the BC pipes not seeing the tesseract as a valid inventory, and BC pipes not being an inventory.  Simple solution: Have the output tesseract dump strait into a chest.  The BC pipes will see the chest through the two tesseracts and no longer have issues with the input tesseract. 

     

    This worked for me!!!

     

    I had the same problem with a grinder in the nether, both tesseract were chunkloaded and were not sending items. A chest next to the receiving tesseract worked, and then i could extract items from that chest using pipes :)

     

    Thanks a lot man, i was burning my brain for 2 days with this problem.
