Zleubb Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Hi everyone ! I don't know if it's a bug or not so i'm asking first but when i try to pump some oil, the pump dont request any power and just stay there, useless. It works fine on water with buildcraft and thermal pipes. Is there something i dont know ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvariae Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Is this 'oil' slightly transparent and in a pool on the surface; if it is, that's not oil it's sludge. I don't believe the BC pump can handle either sludge or waste (brown liquid). If this is actually oil, then post a screenshot so I can get a better idea of what's wrong.

Zleubb Posted May 26, 2013 Author Share Posted May 26, 2013 I didn't confuse it, i've tried on three differents fluids, there's only water being pump. Here is the screenshot, setup is the same for all liquid. (When u r.click on the engine, it store energy when the pipes is full) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvariae Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 Yep, that's sludge. I think you have to use a bucket to move it, and then use a Sludge Boiler to process it. Oil is opaque and doesn't poison you. Edit: Have you tried to pump lava? Does it work? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zleubb Posted May 26, 2013 Author Share Posted May 26, 2013 So the brown one labeled sludge is waste and that's sludge ? And oil are the geysers ? Works fine on lava. Thank you ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvariae Posted May 26, 2013 Share Posted May 26, 2013 The brown liquid is actually sewage, I was wrong but I guess waste is the same thing. And yes, in the new Tekkit I've only ever seen oil when it was coming from geysers. And you're welcome. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kommunističeskiĭ Posted May 27, 2013 Share Posted May 27, 2013 I find it a pain in the ass to find oil with all the sludge around. I think oil only spawns in deserts past a certain version of Buildcraft but I could be wrong. Or we could change our minimaps to differ between oil and sludge...

TokiWartooth Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Nah I've gotten oil in non desert areas, and also in pools with no geyser. You just carry a bucket with you and check the pools, and if you really want leave waypoints labeling them, or signs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lostonexxx Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 If you only need oil to make rocket fuel, I just used the mfr oil fabricator. Its probably a waste of mj, but if you have more energy than you use, then it doesnt really matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Euphoreich Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 TBH Both sludge and sewage pools are uneccesarry and way too common, is there any way to config them out? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Viktor_Berg Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 I think sludge needs a slight reskin. Make it dark grey, not black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lostonexxx Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 Fun fact about sewage though, its effects dont appear until after you get out of it. And,,,,,,, you cannot drown in it! Feel free to stand in a deep pool of the stuff until you get bored or die of starvation lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calvariae Posted May 29, 2013 Share Posted May 29, 2013 TBH Both sludge and sewage pools are uneccesarry and way too common, is there any way to config them out? Navigate to '\.technic\bigdig\config\powercrystals\minefactoryreloaded\Common.cfg'. To simply make the less common, alter the lines: I:WorldGen.LakeRarity.Sewage=32 and I:WorldGen.LakeRarity.Sludge=32 To disable them completely, find the line B:WorldGen.MFRLakes=true and change the value to false.
