Energy Cables Deleting power #1434

Open Greennyy7504 opened 4 years ago

Greennyy7504 commented 4 years ago

Just starting into powered automation, and ive got a couple of generators hooked up with redstone energy fluxducts to a Mekanism energy cell. There is no problem there. However, connecting a redstone energy fluxduct to the output of the energy cell, even if it is connected to nothing, instantly drains all the power. Cyclic cables are alright, if i have no more than 1 single cable block connected to the energy extraction point. However, any more than one cyclic cable of any type connected to their extractor, and they begin to behave eratically, and never seem to fill either. In the end, it seems to also cause power to disappear without going anywhere. I tried using the wireless energy transfer nodes, and could not get them to power my Inscriber(the only machine i had at the time without in internal energy buffer that saves when broken).

Steps for Reproduce Fluxduct issue

  1. Place down Mekanism Energy Cube.
  2. Place machine requiring power.
  3. Place redstone energy fluxduct between them. Power continues draining even after machine is charged.

Steps to reproduce Cyclic cables issue

  1. Place down mekanism energy cube.
  2. Place energy extraction cable on it.
  3. Place two energy cable in a line from it. In theory it should only drain 64k*3 FE power units, the internal buffer of the three cables, but it drains the cube instead completely at random intervals. This happens with or without machines.

In theory, similar steps with the fluid cables from cyclic produces the same result, though its harder to verify.

The Redstone Fluxducts have an internal buffer, which is what you are seeing. When you are producing less then the fluxduct can handle at its maximum, it will store it inside its buffer. Try it out.
