Vipar Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 I am using an Automated miner, with a Mining Drill, 28 Mining Pipes and an OD Scanner. I am using a Geo. Generator to power the miner. I first tried putting the generator just besides the miner, and nothing happens. It drains power but doesn't mine AT ALL. I tried moving it one square to the right of it, and then use copper insulated cables to power it, letting the power cable go from the top of the generator to the top of the miner. Still nothing happens. It just drains power but refuses to mine! This is infuriating, and I am sure that I am just missing something blindly obvious :( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torezu Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Use a batbox in between - direct generator -> consumer links don't often work well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vipar Posted July 27, 2012 Author Share Posted July 27, 2012 I just found out that the miner doesn't work because of the servers world guard...or at least we think that's what's the problem. The server just started and they disabled everything EE and then also Quarrys which leaves Miners (because of lag issues) but not even miners work. They just suck energy and doesn't do anything.

Torezu Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Yeah, that'll do it. You'll either have to OP [industrialCraft] or allow certain stuff on WorldGuard (not sure how to do that). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warpspeed10 Posted July 27, 2012 Share Posted July 27, 2012 Remember to place a pump filled with tin cells next to your miner to suck up all that lava covering the diamonds. The miner won't dig through liquids. Also don't forget to place a chest next to both machines for the items they collect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
