chulk607 Posted September 4, 2012 Share Posted September 4, 2012 Hi people, I'm new here so I hope I do everything correctly. I'm using the latest version of tekkit/server software. I'm running the game and connecting via localhost to my server. I have set up two buildcraft quarrys (of default size) and connected them to a combustion engine farm via conductive pipes. I've used buildcraft for some time and I'm aware of how to sort this kind of thing out in single player. However, in multiplayer each quarry operates VERY slowly despite the engines being on green/watered/fueled and so on. I had some trouble getting a very large quarry working in a similar way too. The mine-head moves ONE block, then pauses for about 7-8 seconds before moving again, the blocks in the chest connected to the system reflects this sort of "speed" of mining. The game is not lagging at all, the f3 graph shows green/low, and FPS is at 120+ There is more than enough power for the two quarries, and I've even tried disconnecting one from the system but same result. Any help would be MUCH appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chulk607 Posted September 4, 2012 Author Share Posted September 4, 2012 I should also mention, I have done the ol' /op [buildcraft] No dice. I then tried hooking up the engines directly to one of the quarries, and it works. Is there something screwy about conductive pipes in tekkit? Are they a big no-no?

efflandt Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 How many engines of what type were you using, and what kind of conductive pipes? I know that 2 engines running refined fuel worked for me. But I am using gold conductive pipe other than 1 piece of wood conductive pipe at engine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheBard Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 How far away are your engines? Gold conductive pipes lose 0.01% of their energy per block traveled. Stone conductive pipes lose 1% of their energy per block traveled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Honeyderp Posted September 11, 2012 Share Posted September 11, 2012 Slow and buggy. The very definition of buildcraft. But, in terms of your question, have you tried using different engines? Just try the exact same setup with steam or redstone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
