No EU output on nuclear reactor (CASUC)

[codegrabber]

Launcher/pack Version: Launcher: 0.5.4.9, latest tekkit build (2.1.0 | 1.1)

Operating System: Win7 Home Premium 64-bit

Version of Java: 6, 1.6.0_21-b07, JDK (jre also installed), 64-bit

Description of Problem:

I'm trying to build an Ice CASUS reactor, but it doesn't provide any EU output. The reactor lights up green as it's working, ice blocks are being used, uranium consumed but no EU output on the cable that goes to the HV transformator...

As suggested in a previous bug thread I tried the next things in order to solve it:

- I checked with worldedit for the chunk borders, it's in the middle of a chunk, so I didn't move it.

- Adding a glass cable to an MFSU a bit away from it doesn't help (still 0 EU/T)

- unloading all uranium and skipping the night while sleeping doesn't help either

- Running latest tekkit version (using launcher)

If you have a solution that I could try, let me know! (If there's more info missing, let me know too, I'll provide it asap then)

Error Messages: Don't get any.

Is the HV Transformer turned the right way?

Do you have an output for the power to go to? (MFSU?)

Is the power travelling over a very long distance?

If you can't fix it, try and put the transformer directly onto the reactor, and the MFSU connected directly to the transformer. If that works, there's something wrong with the above.

Also, this may seem dumb but happens to a lot of people, make sure no redstone current is applied.

The only redstone current that could be applied to it is the cable that's visible in the screenshot. That's to turn the reactor on/off, because I need to test and verify that I can produce enough ice ^^. When I turn it off, the reactor starts (as described in the first post), but doesn't output any EU.

The HV transformer is put on the correct way, with the 3-dotted one connected to the cable coming from the reactor. A glass fibre cable is put on the other side, going to a battery of MSFU units that are perhaps (in cable) 15-20 blocks away.

I'll try connecting the HV directly to the reactor and see what happens.

Update: tried connecting a HV directly, followed by an MSFU, but still no EU output :(

Can you hear the reactor running when you have sounds enabled?

You should also try to connect the cables directly to the reactor instead of 1 of the chambers and see if that will help. If none if this works, I'd say this is a bug.

Thanks for the fast reply in each case!

- When enabling sound, I can hear it working.

- Removing one chamber to the 3x insulated cable can reach the reactor didn't work, still no output.

I also briefly tried removing that one alloy wire so it wouldn't touch the reactor, but that didn't help either (and there's need for the wire anyway, need to be able to turn off reactor if necessary)

One last thing, did the MFSU's output turn towards the cable from the reactor or away from it?

The cable fromt the reactor goes into the input face, just did a double check on that. The cable from the reactor goes also into the right one, see the next two screenshots:

http://puu.sh/qixl (MFSU)

The fact that I daisychained a bunch of the MFSU's shouldn't matter, it worked before on a server I played on with a friend, and even with one MFSU alone it doesn't work.

I think I see your problem. In your second picture, if the cable shown is the one going from the reactor/HV transformer, it's attached to the output face. Energy storage units have 5 input faces and one output face.

How can I've been so stupid

Thanks for pointing that out...

Update: yeah, it's working after remaking the MFS storage battery... I used the wrong side indeed.

i also need help!

i have all this stuff correct, i read the whole post and looked at all the pictures, but mine still doesn't work, i use the eu reader to tell if there is any eu but i get squat! plz help me
