Deployer not working with buckets

[Ieldra]

Redpower's deployer does not appear to work with buckets. Every other deployable item appears to work. I've had that problem with SSP and thought it was fixed? Unfortunately in Tekkit I cannot just overwrite RP Machines to fix it.

Can anyone help me with a fix?

"Work with buckets."

What exactly are you trying to do with the buckets? Pick up water, pick up lava, oil, etc? More details, please.

[Ieldra]

Put a Deployer next to a tank full of water. Turn it into the right direction. Put an empty bucket in and activate a redstone signal.

The bucket should fill with water, but doesn't. It remains empty. The same setup works in my SSP world (after I overwrote the RP machines file that first came with Technic 6 - no idea if it's fixed now).

just a temporary solution:

make an infinite water source and place your deployer next to that.

[Ieldra]

That doesn't work either, unfortunately. Neither does it work with empty cells from IC2.

i had this problem a while ago but it works for me now in tekkit the way i solved it in technic is i re downloaded the redpower machines zip and replaced the one i currently have although im not sure how it will affect the server so use it at your own risk. but it does work for me on my server. try moving it and try again also are you applying a redstone signal just checking.

The problem with that is that Redpower is condensed into one file in Tekkit 2. I'd need to open the file and overwrite the class files. Any idea if that would work?

[Ieldra]

So....nobody knows which class files to overwrite in the unified Redpower file to fix that bug?

Well it works fine for me.... So I guess you changed something somewhere? Making it no longer work. Try reinstalling I guess.

The hosting service we use has Tekkit 2.0 in its list of installable mods - and it's the current version, not the old buggy one. I can install it with a click and haven't changed anything. I've also checked the RP file size (of the zip in the mod folder) against the version in the Tekkit download. They're identical.

This is seriously weird.

do you have a permissions plugin installed? if so try forcing admin privileges to the player [RedPower].

[Ieldra]

No permissions plugin. And we're all ops on that server.

This problem is becoming chronic and a big obstacle to alot of machine set-ups I intend to build. Does anyone have any insight on how to solve it at all?

[J0P5]

I have had the same issue, but it was because we used regios... Do you use regios?

if so:

/regios add-ex <regionname> [Redpower]

This is going to sound like an odd fix, but it got my deployer-with-buckets system up and running.

In the server console, type "op [Redpower]". I guess [Redpower] is considered a player, and by opping it, it allows it to pick up water in buckets or something. I don't know, but it got the job done. Hope that helps!

Thanks!! I had this problem before and got it fixed somehow, but it reappeared and didn't work until I opped [Redpower], now things are back online again :)
