NosajDraw Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 One of my quarries has stopped, and yet it has loads still to go. It's not a lava problem, the quarry is submerged in water. I think its a problem that happens whilst I am offline. When I am offline the quarry quarries a doughnut shape, leaving the centre unmined/quarried, when I come online it resumes quarrying normally. However in this case, the doughnut part has reached bedrock, yet the middle part has some 25 or more layers to go (i.e. where all the diamonds and interesting stuff is). Any ideas?

Backplague Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 It may be that the middle part of your quarry is an unloaded chunk(s). How big is your quarry? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NosajDraw Posted July 11, 2012 Author Share Posted July 11, 2012 64x64... its certainly not an unloaded chunk whilst I'm online, I can see it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OmegaJasam Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 This happoned to me, and once there was a dohnut shape armound the centre that hit /bedrock/ the quarry never recovered (I guess the way it looks if there is stuff to do is being prevented. I 'solved' it by moving the quarry to the remianing area. Prevention I think is to make sure all the chunks being mined stay loaded. (hint: tethers don't work) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NosajDraw Posted July 11, 2012 Author Share Posted July 11, 2012 I have not the slightest idea how to make chunks stay loaded. Anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backplague Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Use World Anchors (from RailCraft). They load the chunk they are in and 4 chunks right next to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NosajDraw Posted July 11, 2012 Author Share Posted July 11, 2012 Not sure I can make that work, it would mean placing the anchor in the centre of my quarry... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backplague Posted July 11, 2012 Share Posted July 11, 2012 Place it above your quarry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
