Railcraft tank valve can't be read sometimes (demo video included) #203

Closed therealtkh closed 9 years ago

Hey, I made a program to monitor Railcraft tanks back in FTB 1.5.2. Finally it was redesigned for FTB 1.6.4, but it doesn't always work. Investigations has shown that if I place a "bottom valve" one block behind and below the "readout valve" I can't read the values anymore. "No liquid in tank"

See my workaround video for more info and demonstration: http://youtu.be/Kwh5-VAOu7w

Sorry, it looks like Railcraft bug. When block is recognized as peripheral (tank), OP presents data without any changes - so if in this particular configuration tank reports it's empty, any other mod should read same value (tank may still accept or drain liquid, since those are independent methods).

Also, 1.6.4 is no longer maintained.

Ok, thanks, I'll post this in the RailCraft bug tracker.

I understand that the 1.6.4 track is discontinued, the purpose of posting was mostly to inform of the bug. It might still exist in 1.7.10 (?) releases, I haven't been able to check that yet ;)
