    it keeps mining until it hits an unbreakable block (usually just means you have to go down and break vines manually) or until it tries to mine blocks that are too far away for the game to load

    Not my best work, but here's an example of a pump-based airlock

    FRA32 Yeah, You!

    Can someone help me? I'm new to this awesome mod but everytime I try to send items via pipe to an power furnace or liquid extracter they won't get stored in. All I can do is buffering items in storage boxes and outputting them with ejectors.How do I insert them in machines?

    When a liquid extractor or power furnace has its input (left side) pipe connected to an item box, it should be able to pull items of the appropriate type from the box. The machines themselves can only hold the materials they're currently working on (i.e. one bar's worth of ores for the smelter, or 20 blocks of an appropriate material for the extractor). There should be some example images in this thread and the mod description of these kind of systems.

    If this doesn't solve your problem, would you mind posting a screenshot of your setup here? It's often easier to diagnose these things visually.

    Well, this is the setup(the left storage is filled with sand)

    The only problem I see there is that your battery rack is in charge mode (blue), which means that it won't send energy. Try switching it to discharge mode (green) if you haven't already.

    This similar setup worked correctly for me:

    Does this mod break small wall switches? Mine don't seem to react to input anymore, which kinda makes it impossible to build a binary clock.

    Hi, I play on a private server with FRA32. Thanks for the help, we got it running. But Sand won't smelt. Is this a bug?

    Glad to see someone using that feature! It looks like the Furious Koala patch actually broke them in the vanilla game, but they'll be fixed in the next version of Starfoundry!

    Yep, this was a bug, thanks for the report. Will be fixed in next version.

    FRA32 Yeah, You!

    The furnace is working now. What about the extracter (trying to extract stone/wooden logs)

    The extractor extracts liquid from blocks, it only works with certain blocks that would feasibly contain liquids. Those do not include stone or wood logs, but do include: mud, wet dirt, snow, slush, ice, sewage, slime, obsidian, magmarock, tar.

    FRA32 Yeah, You!

    Ahh thanks for the list .Now I can make my very own poison pool.

    Oh, so it's vanilla bug. Sorry for blaming you :oops:
    Thanks for the mod, it is great!

    can;t seem to get the pipes working is thier an instruction/guide on how to pump liquied from one place to another thanks
     
  17. FRA32

    FRA32 Yeah, You!

    If you want to pump for example an poison pool to another place then you first have to place a sprout on the bottom of the liquid. Then you connect it with a pipe to a pump. Then another pipe to the destination with another sprout at the exit. It should look like this:

    FRA32 Yeah, You!

    I found a bug at the big air fans. They only work when you use them to blow to the right. if I try using them in the left direction they don't work.(energy supply is avaiable)

    you need an energy relay to transfer energy to the pump
