Laser Drill Precharger Question

[FalseTetrabyte]

Has anyone ever seen a situation where they aren't craftable, even when they're not explicitly denied in a permissions module?  

 

I manage a Tekkit server for a site and we've got a user with OP powers that can't craft them.  The drill head piece itself is craftable just fine, but the precharger just won't craft at all.  

 

I did some search on the forums here and on other tekkit sites, including the wiki and I'm coming up empty.  Any thoughts?  

 

We've got WorldEdit/Guard and Essentials installed, but I don't see anything in the files that says it's a blocked item per se. (and we're OK with our users having access to them)

What type of a crafting bench is used?

[FalseTetrabyte]

I believe he used a normal crafting bench.  I myself haven't tried to make one yet, but wanted to try and nip this "problem" before I try it myself.  

 

We're coming from a Tekkit Lite server, so still trying to get used to all the nuances.

Tell him to recheck the recipe. Some ingredients are used in both the prechargers and in the actual drill, but in subtly different positions. I once needed ten minutes to figure out why mine wouldn't craft, and I simply had mixed up placement on two ingredients.

If unsure, shift-clicking the question mark icon next to the recipe in NEI will transfer the recipe directly to a compatible crafting area if it's opened. Only if the problem persists after doing that, you should look into possible technical causes. Which would be a client-side modpack reset for that user.

He's positive that the recipe is accurate.  I'll have him double check, and I might even try it out with creative mode mats later.  It's not a matter of idiot vs the world here I think, but since we're so new to the mod, I won't rule it out entirely.

As I said, it happened to me, and I usually don't derp on crafting recipes. Try that shift-click-trick to directly transmit the recipe to the crafting grid.

Keep in mind also that items that look identical, but have a different damage value than the recipe, will fail to work in a lot of those MFR recipes. Ie: item id 1 is used, but you have 1:5 instead of i "1" (1:0, more precisely) and thus it fails because the metadata values dont match up even though theyre more or less the same.
