Yup deployers need empty space to deploy their content for this and I'm quite sure you can't really spill out oil anywhere with a bucket anyway (can't right click with it to get oil out anyway), they can retrieve content from a tank but not deposit their content into it. I've got a similar problem, my refinery is way out in the woods and my base is not that far away but just enough that its not possible to do it with pipes, not sure how to retrieve that precious fuel I've made, was thinking about teleport pipes but they crash my server 90% of the time so I can't really use them.

Anyone here managed to add the Buildcraft Additional Objects to their tekkit server, just curious because it looks like the most awesome part of stuff to add to a server buildcraft content (valve pipe, balance pipe, power switch pipe) that kind of stuff may even reduce some lag issue if we control them with redpower2 to control the valves of the system for exemple. I'm really surprised that this one isn't already a part of Tekkit...

If people are exploring the world constantly, it keeps generating the map and this could cause massive lag, it even kicked me out 1hr ago, I don't know why but it seems exploring for new territories isn't a good thing, can't figure out why, we have a ssd drive handling the game but the memory is getting filled up and the server can't keep up message is there and quite annoying.

Or you can use some plugins like towny or Izone and create a zone of your house and set the option to not have mobs spawning there quite easy and works so much better especially if you want to use redpower2 lamps and not having to let them on all the time to avoid monsters spawning there, really nice, also get the plugin called Essentials and you can set the creepers to not do any damage to your world, they can still explode and cause player damage but won't do anything to the world, you can also totally disable their explosion damage to players too if you wish.

That slot doesn't work at all except if its copper and tin and it makes bronze dust with it, so pretty useless to use that second slot unless you want bronze dust all the time and nothing else.

Get a hosted server, serioulsy this is your problem, you're throttled to upload only at 30kb/s and this is what cause your lag, you seriously can't host a server with that sorry, even if you had the best NASA computer in your home, if you can't upload at a good speed, you're out of luck there.

They are there, we found our third NPC village yesterday, its pretty far away from our main spawn zone and most of them are spread out so much, you need to look harder, samething for mineshaft, for whatever reason they are there but seem a lot less frequent than on ssp vanilla Minecraft.

I noticed the update all my achievments are reset again, quite annoying to see them again and again... Is there any secret option to prevent any update of any kind without warning, already setup to choose my version manually and still some updates are done anyways.

Just found out about lagmem, will be sure to install it quickly, thanks for the quick reply.

Any tricks to see the TPS exactly, I know about FPS and the damn ping command just respond pong instead of the numbers I expect to see there so useless, but is there any plugin for bukkit or anything that could tell me the actual TPS and maybe a bonus to see the ping response with a number of my server.

Just a quick headup found out that once macerated, the new ores from Forestry are the same once in ingots form so no worry about theses, but its a good thing to disable them before exploring for new world with the forestry ores like apatite and some bees.

Thanks for the headsup, didn't know that, will have to do it quick I found out some new tin, should I also disable register tin block from Forestry or will it conflict with the other tin block from IC2...

Yup because of the Forge new version, I saw that on Forestry website, will try to find the old version (1.4.6.2) found the server bukkit port and just found out on the Forestry thread for the old version of the client, will report shortly, don't want to upgrade to the 3.1.1 yet, will wait at least a week or so. edit : I got it working fine on 3.0.4 with the 1.4.6.2 edition, if you need the files and if its ok with the devs here, I could link them here, but I don't think it is allowed, so send me a PM and I could share the files if you don't want to update your server to 3.1.1 yet.

I'm about to install that Forestry thing on my 3.0.4 and tried both version from mcportcentral on my server I follow everything here, and I get an error saying forge is too old and need 3.3.8 how should I update this one, can't find it in mods folder... Do I need to upgrade to Tekkit 3.1.1, what are the risk that something goes wrong here ???

Its not forcing people, but I think a load of servers will upgrade just because they can, then the players will be forced to upgrade to the 3.1.1 version to play there then if you don't follow the move, the players won't be able to connect to your 3.0.4 server because they will have upgraded their client to play on other servers and most of them won't know how to get the 3.0.3 version back, the result, a lost of a load of players for your stable 3.0.4 server while the 3.1.1 may cause a bunch of troubles (I'm not saying its not stable, but I've never ever seen a brand new software without problems when they are released so there must be some stuff that won't work like it should)

Yup quite a challenge for the ones that want to use it, but there's are some good video tutorials on youtube, I've even seen a RP2 tree farm tutorial which could be one of my projects later

Yup in fact I've just finished my first RP2 sorting machine with RP2 tubes that lead to every chest needed, pretty awesome, I've followed DireWolf20 tutorial (part of his Lets' Play series in season 3 episode 9) it looks like a lot better than doing the same with BuildCraft. and there's no risk of clogging or drops everywhere cause if the system is jammed, the machine just wait till there's a valid inventory space available. Getting ready to get a buildcraft quarry but will get the stuff with RP2 tubes and drop everything in a ender chest linked to another one to get the stuff sorted back at my main base.

Exactly what I was looking for, didn't know it was possible, so we won't need to have permission for everyone to use warps, we could setup portals the player can cross it and it will teleport between lands on the main world, can't wait to try it out, just hope it works well with the 3.0.4 server edition.

I would also suggest disabling buildcraft pipes at least, they can be used to get stuff out of locked chests and there's nothing to protect you from that, and they cause massive lag due to the way they handle items, they are mostly made for SSP world. You can do exactly the same thing with RedPower2 tubes and it works a lot better, only thing I think RedPower2 tubes can't get is oil but its not needed for RedPower2 tubes cause they work on bluetricity (not sure if correct word here) The other exception is probably Quarry, but you can get stuff from a Quarry with tubes and a retriever or filter from RP2.

I'm holding back from upgrading my server for at least 1-2 weeks maybe more and even consider getting back to the oldest build that seem more stable, I got a feeling this build need more work and will require some fix, the 3.0.4 need work and bug fixes and they already release a new version, I'm not sure if the tekkit devs are really dedicated to fixing bugs at all (for example teleport pipes not working even when 10 blocks apart or the gui to configure them not appearing and sometime NEI crashing the game when I ask for a recipe) I know they are doing a hard work and kuddos to them for this, but I think they should first correct the bugs before working on a new version.

Hum, coffee, what mods bring that,looked everywhere to get them, no tutorials, nothing on it beside the fact its from IC2, how do we get coffee exactly.

You should consider installing mcmmo also, add a great challenge, there's a thread somewhere with the modded items to add to mcmmo configuration, its really awesome.

Mostly everything since Tekkit is simply the modded version of Bukkit, but because of some mods in Tekkit, some plugins would need some manual editing to work properly, like LWC for exemple.

I got it 2 minutes ago, I'm on my server, I suggest everyone that try keep your client connected once you're online, otherwise you may be unable to get online again.

Same problem here, can't connect to their servers, it shouldn't prevent people from playing the game, what is wrong with this, happens everytime I try to connec, I was just taking a break for the last 2hrs played fine then when I came back and wanted to get back online, it can't connect. I can confirm we can't join any servers even with the Vanilla Minecraft and even with Magic Launcher, can't verify username is the problem.
