Quarry - Mcmmo - Fakeplayer Fix

[xtremetom]

I had a frustrating issue with buildcraft quarries and mcmmo. Basically any quarry action that would result in potential mcmmo xp created a similar error to this:

Turns out the fix is just strange.

 

Firstly I had tried everything

• blocks.fakeplayerlogin=true (in buildcraft config)
• op [buildcraft] (works but negates area protection)
• pex permissions
• modifyworld removed

None of those worked. So I stripped the server clean and left only tekkit and mcmmo, to no avail. Finally I decided to rename [buildcraft] to [fakebuildcraft] in the buildcraft config. Hey presto error free and quarry still works. for those that are interested here is the general section of build.cfg:

I literally just found this fix, if I find any resulting errors or issues I shall post them here.
