industrial foregoing plant gatherer #118

windybut commented 4 years ago

The industrial foregoing plant gatherer works in 1x1 (no upgrade). I add a +4 up grade and it broke my building which wasn't in the area at all. In fact it was behind the gatherer and 20 blocks up.

To fix this I have started a new world and it's still happening. I'm running ATM version 0.3.1 and I have not added any extra mods. I even tried a previous version of industrial foregoing but that did the same. I also deleted ATM4 and re-downloaded it, that did not fix it either.

The plant gatherer is notorious for destroying wood-type blocks near the farming area....but I'm not sure how it calculates that. It can destroy parts of trees and logs that branch outside the immediate working area...so somehow it scans connected blocks. I know my storage drawers outside the farming area would randomly get harvested when I AFK'd...even though I've attempted to use stone to fully isolate them from the tree growth areas to prevent "connecting", but they still get harvested. I haven't looked at the code to try to isolate the cause.

Best suggestion for now is to report this to IF and keep your farm further away from your base.

Thank you for your response. I will try it away from my base and Tell IF about the issue. As for the code, well that is outside my silk set. Although it`s nice that I am no alone with this issue. I was following along with ChosenArtitech on youtube, it's working for him :(.

Thanks again.

Happens in other modpacks too. Would say it is not a Bug. But works as intended. ... IF ... I assume it is an automated tree farm? right? Lets say a block of leaves touch some other wood log - Than this is identified as the same tree infront of the gatherer. Because trees grow in more or less random shape and heights. Sometimes straight, sometimes diagonal upwards. So every connected log or leave counts to the same tree structure or the gatherer is not able to identify a tree. They everything is collected from top to bottom. but never underneathe the layer of the gatherer itself, only same level and above. (it may be possible to add checks for the same type but this will also fail for tree farms the same type of the base they were touching and its not worth the cpu ressources) Also happened to us on another modpack once. So... This is just how the plant gatherer work. Always keep some safety distance. ^^
