Remote Thermal Monitor gives out signal when it has no power #148

Alxandr commented 8 years ago

So, I was trying to set up a fool-safe setup in my Infinity Evolved Skyblock world, where I have the Remote Thermal Monitor emit a redstone signal if it's safe to run the Nuclear Reactor. This would in theory ensure that if ever the Remote Thermal Monitor runs out of power for some reason, it would shut down the reactor as it lost it's power. That was the theory anyhow.

Currently, if the Remote Thermal Monitor runs out of power it acts as if it's connected to a reactor which is within the expected temperature range. This is highly illogical IMHO and should be changed. If the machine does not have power, it should (regardless of anything else) not give out a redstone signal. At least that's how I think it should be. The reason is easy. If you power down any machine, ever, (and yes, I know this is Minecraft, but still) it will stop sending out signals because it doesn't have power. It would also enable users to build completely safe systems.
