I've tried to use the remote inventory from the Remote IO mod and came across two issues:

1) NEI and the in-game documentation is missing the recipe for the tier one range upgrade (and every following tier uses the previous one to craft)

2) the cross dimensional upgrade is supposed to ignore the distance if the connection spans multiple dimensions but does not seem to work (i tried it with a nexus to overworld connection)

Does anyone know how to craft the aforementioned range upgrade? Failing that, would it be possible to set up another trade-o-mat at spawn to trade some suitable item (i have no idea what that might be; could involve some ender pearls perhaps, due to the remote nature) for a tier one range upgrade?

Edit: I found another problem with the remote inventory, it loses its power and wireless connection during a server restart. That makes it kinda useless :( No need for any trading machine then unless someone knows a way to solve that issue.

Edit2: Got it mostly working now apart from the cross dimensional link. Thanks for the range upgrades, darkinnit.

No. Hostile mob spawning depends on nearby players, not chunk loaders.

I had a brief look around and didn't find much other than many other people having various problems with Remote IO. I also found this:

Note that dmillerw in the first reply is the mod developer.

Sounds like it's not a very stable mod.

Coolies Dark. I've had a couple of nights where nobody is on and I got nothing, then last night Tikka and Foto went on, and bang, creepers, zombahs, skeletons, the works.

Yeah it was weird/bad for a bit. Skeletons, Zombies, and Creepers...one after another in a pretty well lit area too. Oh well, I didn't die and the exp wasn't too shabby a deal.


And I think the server is down

Indeed it looks like its down. Crashed sometime around 12:30 EST last night, and I guess it never recovered.

It was just Abso and me on there... no idea what could happened

Server was up and then it crashed again. Maybe someone built a crash-engine.

I've been pretty much AFK both times.

Looks like a Buildcraft quarry wasn't happy with either something it mined up or something it tried to insert into.

Server's up again now for the past three minutes without crashing yet..

Spoke too soon, crashed again.

Anyone set up a new quarry recently or placed items near a quarry?

I set up a Quarry. I think I know what the problem is.

In my infinite idiocy, I think the quarry is intersecting with a laser drill.

Located here: http://www.darkinnit.com/newmonstermap/?worldname=DIM3&mapname=flat&zoom=7&x=-178.43750000000003&y=64&z=-681.15625

Sorry :-(

Is it this one?
http://www.darkinnit.com/newmonstermap/?worldname=DIM3&mapname=flat&zoom=4&x=-59.00000000000005&y=64&z=-779.5

Name: QuarryPlus // org.yogpstop.qp.TileQuarry
Block type: ID #1328 (tile.QuarryPlus // org.yogpstop.qp.BlockQuarry)
Block data value: 3 / 0x3 / 0b0011
Block location: World: (-196,89,-655), Chunk: (at 12,5,1 in -13,-41; contains blocks -208,0,-656 to -193,255,-641), Region: (-1,-2; contains chunks -32,-64 to -1,-33, blocks -512,0,-1024 to -1,255,-513)

Also you know MFR Laser drills are ok to use in any dimension right?

Edit: correct link

No, that's Tikka's base. The Quarry and drill I set up recently is

Yep. That one.

And yeah. I just had one in Mining Age to test it out until I had collected enough ore to see what varieties there are and I could properly sort them after getting samples.

Yeah, I realised I'd got a bad link there and fixed it just before you replied.

I'll see what I can do...

The laser drill will continue its laser so long as the block is still there. I believe removing the laser drill block may work.

Or maybe the Quarry setup in the Southwest of the Quarry plot. It's powered by the tesseract connected to the TE Redstone Conduit. Removing that tesseract should work.

Did you guys crash the server again?

lol.


I logged on a minute ago, then a few moments later, "server has closed". Log back on when it comes back up (three people on so I figured it was good)... and "end of stream" error, with the server list listing it as offline and the old server as online.

yeah it musta crashed...

i didnt do anythin out of the ordinary....

Server hadn't crashed, was just in a grump. I've cheered it up with some cookies and tea and it's running again.

What was wrong?

ugh. you know if you keep giving it treats it'll never learn!

You have to discipline servers! Threaten it some!

Can this Grump be trapped in a Pokeball? Can you put it in an Auto-Spawner?

Ha ha

Uh, just a note. Shift clicking to place Rotarycraft stuff causes it to go... weird.

I did it with an induction motor (technically Electricraft, I know) and it turned into a lower-res induction motor. I did it with a bedrock breaker, and it turned into a Light Bridge. Yeah.

They turned back after mining them up, though, so no biggy.

Uhh... I found a Hungry Node in the Automated Mining Age. I got near it and it started eating the grass around it.

I captured it, but people should be careful.

Also, Aluminum, Nickel, Dark Iron, Cobalt, and Ardite seem to be bugged when it comes to the SAG Mill. They apparently require 129600 MJ of power per smelt (Normally ores are 240-400 MJ). The machine jams up because that's more than the internal storage.

I seriously hope you didn't destroy it yet. I will buy it off you. Or, just take it off your hands.

4oursword, I went near your blood altar just to see how you fit the Well of Suffering into the altar itself. I think a skeleton saw me, fired an arrow, hit a creeper, and I heard an explosion.

I accept full responsibility for any and all damage done to your altar, and I'll replace anything needed. I apologize. The damage didn't seem too catastrophic, but I think some ritual stones got damaged. I have the facilities to make ritual stones, so I left some in a chest near your altar. If you need anything else, just PM me.

Damn those creepers. I still havent replaced the 2 beacons they destroyed lol

I'm not really worried about it- I'm not playing at the moment. If you want to, you can rebuild any of the altar (and use it, if you like) using stuff in my ME system. I'd rather someone used it.

Also, @Xeriapt: I hadn't even noticed you had lost two. I gifted you one Feel free to grab a nether star from my AE system to fix yourself up.

Also grab a magnum torch if there's one in there.

Altar isn't damaged. Pretty much nothing is aside from some Well of Suffering ritual blocks.

Gotcha. Still no worries.

I've lost my ic2 quantum helmet and can't find a working recipe for the nanosuit helmet that's used to craft it. I found the following on reddit:

Okay, here is what we did. It all has to do with the damage values, if you look the night vision goggles have no metadata on them at all, but you can't craft them with no metadata. So on our server we set up vending blocks by spawn (not sure if you would have that mod or not) that exchange a freshly crafted night vision goggles (metadata of :26 I believe) for one without the metadata so you can complete this recipe.

Darkinnit, would you be so kind and set up yet another vending machine for me (and hopefully others as well) to exchange either a fully charged or empty night vision goggle for one without additional meta data as required by the nanosuit helmet recipe.
