Overstressed Contraptions

[KritantaM]

I am working on a build for the furnace flywheel engine, I was testing a mob farm and after everything was working for 5 minutes, I spawned in skeletons. during this time, I had killed about 20 skeletons using the automatic farm when the furnace ran out of fuel. It then declared that the system was overstressed and I went to check it out, after putting in more fuel, I replaced a shaft that had broken from being connected to the flywheel, it broke again, but all the contraptions kept moving including conveyer belts that weren't hooked up to anything. I am unsure if this is a common problem but I also know that certain moving contraptions in create do glitch from time to time. Is there a reason for this and how do I stop it from happening again?

Please refer to the Common issues pinned issue. You could likely prevent it from getting falsely overstressed by making sure that everything is in the same chunk, or is chunk loaded.

Everything is in the same chunk, everything fully loaded, it's even right next to a village. All it has is a tree farm for fuel and a mob farm for bone meal. It is barely 50 blocks long going along the length of the village and 13 blocks wide. Once I set the last block into place and switched a shaft for a gearshift, I've had no problems. It only says overstressed when there is no more wood to burn and the shaft connected to the flywheel breaks. I fixed this by applying the gearshift to the flywheel since after the shaft breaks, and it's all disconnected from the flywheel which is the only source of power, the shafts spin clockwise while the flywheel spun counterclockwise. I can't figure out why it does that but as long as it has wood to burn it won't overstress which breaks the block. And with the gearshift, it rotates in the same direction. The fact that everything was still working without being powered by the flywheel and the stressometer said that I needed almost 10K power suggests that it is still reading as if it's connected to the flywheel and refuses to stop. The flywheel says it produces 16K power I have everything running at 128 rpms and so I know it isn't truly being overstressed I assume running out of wood and the shaft breaking caused it to misread the stress level. As long as the furnace keeps running which it has been going nonstop since I opened this post it doesn't say overstressed. I don't know why everything was moving in the opposite direction of the flywheel but as long as I keep the furnace going it doesn't seem to be an issue.
