Items disappearing from condenser

Title: Items disappearing from condenser

Version: 3.1.2

OS: Windows 7 64-bit

Java Version: v7 Update 5 Installed - choosing Java from control panel says Java 6 though (update 33)...

Description of Problem:

Private server: I have an energy condenser with an antimatter relay on each side, each with 4 energy collectors connected. It all works as intended when I leave it to condense diamond/dark/red matter (I've been using same setup in Technic for a while) until I want to condense a different type of item to craft with. The bug doesn't always happen, maybe one in five times but I can't seem to replicate it reliably. It all works fine when I change the target item, but when I try to remove some of that newly condensed item, large amounts will randomly disappear as soon as I click it. Doesn't seem to matter whether I shift-click, click and drag or single click, it can happen regardless. Seems to be about 3/4 of what was in the condenser just disappears as soon as I click. None of it is in my inventory or anywhere else, and the EMC is lost.

I have noticed it's only ever the first stack I try to remove of a newly condensed item. If I grab some of what is left on second, third, etc. attempts, it always seems fine. It's never all of the items either, but always seems to be more than half of them.

I have picked up and replaced all of the alchemy machines at some point, to upgrade or shift them. I haven't tried making a replacement condenser. That might be the next thing I try unless someone has heard of this problem before...

Error Messages:

None.

Error Log:

None.

I'm not sure about that I've had it a few times as well if you're playing your own switch to technic ssp it works fine there

Well I am for now. The idea was to test it out and get my housemates to ultimately join the server, but it'll be pretty annoying if the condenser plays up all the time. It could be worse I suppose, the collectors are making free red matter so I can't complain too much if I lose some items. I had been spawning in items at first to replace anything too valuable which was lost like diamonds or glowstone. Now I'm just kinda letting it go since I have quite fast EMC generators anyway...

Will be nice if I can fix it though. I want to be able to generate whatever we need without technically cheating (although that's basically what collectors are I guess...)

It is a desync bug between the server and client. The items dont really exits its just a visual bug. No emc is lost as those items dont exist in the first place.

I am pretty sure it is server lag, never happens on single player, but haven't confirmed it.

[elmarko98]

Yeah never happened to me on ssp but I did notice there being considerably larger amount of DM in my condensor than I expected but a lot of it did disappear tanki's right I think

[Mudget]

Oh, fair enough. That's not so bad. I guess I have been cheating then

I don't remember being overly surprised by how much there was but I then I made no attempt to do the maths so it's likely you're right.

Don't worry about cheating once you get to the higher levels of EE you're basically a god And if you leave your condensers on a server for a week there's a crazy amount of DM and that's with MK1 collectors >:)
