CorianWornen Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Okay, so I'm playing a tekkit server with my GF and we have a small issue. After much work and death, we are working on an infinite power source using a water tower. This has worked before when Tekkit 3 was released but it doesn't anymore, I'm wondering if this is due to a bug or an update. The set up is a tower: Five by five with the corners brought in, centered and raised off the ground by one is a batBox surrounded by four watermills, each with a bucket inside. I then proceed to fill the surrounding areas with water. I've only filled up two block heights with water but the first batBox isn't charging at all. This was a system I used to create infinite energy for a macerator, electric furnace, extractor, and compressor, and that's all I'm trying to get it to do now.

bwillb Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Watermills don't automatically suck up water. You can use a deployer and tube system though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorianWornen Posted August 24, 2012 Author Share Posted August 24, 2012 As stated previously though, this system did work when tekkit 3 was released, I'm wondering if this NOT working is due to a change in IC or something like that? And I have no idea how deployers or any of that work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bwillb Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 ah you know what I was mistaken, they actually do... but the water source has to be ABOVE the water mill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joe5 Posted August 25, 2012 Share Posted August 25, 2012 water mills have been known to spontaniously not function Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CorianWornen Posted August 25, 2012 Author Share Posted August 25, 2012 So do I need to fix it or not? If so can someone suggest a more reliable system? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
