TarnWilliamson Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 I am constantly running into the situation where I am receiving infinite energy in my machines. I use a redstone energy cell to store my energy and my line of machines are connected to it by conduit pipes. I first encountered the bug when i had a pulveriser and redstone furnace on top of another pulveriser and redstone furnace. The game bugged out when I had a loop of conduits powering the 4 machines from the back. So i removed the machines on top so i literally just had a line of machines powered by a line of conduits connected to a redstone energy cell, this worked fine. However, I then removed the conduit pipe connecting to the redstone energy cell and .....again the machines never drained of energy, and neither did the redstone energy cell. The energy is coming from literally nowhere. What is with this? No matter what i do i always end up with infinite energy and it's ruining that part of the game :/ Quote
HeatHunter Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 can it be that the conduits itself can store a bit of energy? Did you try it with some more energy hungry equipment? (e.g. magma crucible or laser drill precharger?) Quote
TarnWilliamson Posted June 27, 2014 Author Posted June 27, 2014 I am certain that it is a bug, I put half a stack of redstone in a magma crucible and also a stack of cobblestone in the pulveriser, still no energy drop at all Quote
TarnWilliamson Posted June 27, 2014 Author Posted June 27, 2014 (edited) Actually I think you may be right! How much energy can conduit pipes store? I took a few minutes before it started dropping in energy but it did! Edited June 27, 2014 by TarnWilliamson Quote
HeatHunter Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 I think you can use a multimeter to read the saturation of the cables... Quote
Curunir Posted June 27, 2014 Posted June 27, 2014 Conduits do store a certain amount of RF when operating, so it will take a few ticks to fill them at first, and also to drain them when the power source is turned off. Energy stored seems to be per piece of Conduit, so long pipes may contain quite a bit. Follow HeatHunter's advice and build a Multimeter if you're curious about details. Quote
