I think I found a bug... Your pistons can push each other, but normal pistons can't push your pistons.
I can still make my contraption work by using your double pistons in the place of normal pistons, but it forces everything to take up a lot more space. D:
Can not believe I haven'yt seen your mods before! o.O
Been looking for your Dimensional Anchor for a long time. It's F9 display looks infinitly more usefull than others I've seen! Any chance of a bukkit version in the near future?
You need to enable chunk loader blocks in the config if your using a server. You can find the config in /buildcraft/config/AdditionalPipes.cfg and set Chunkloader.Enabled to true. In the future to avoid looking like idiots again, look in the config first or just read the documentation of the mod, derp
You mean like this?
Next time to avoid looking like a jackass, don't assume everyone's a complete moron. Derp.
Here to also confirm that Chunkloader blocks do not work. I just set up a quarry on my server and surrounded the whole thing with Chunkloader blocks(at least 20 of them) and when I get back to my house 600m away nothing flows through anymore(using teleport pipes).
The pie chart shows the majority of your time going to Tick and Sound.
Tick would tend to indicate block updates.
Sound.. is unusual, not sure why that would be so high?
In any case, you've configured your memory absolutely wrong.
You have 8GB total, and you've told your minecraft client that it can use 8GB.
Which you couldn't really do even if you were NOT also running a server on the same machine.
Of the 8GB that you have, you must allow some for the OS, some for the server, and some for the client.
The sum of these must be no more than 8G in order to expect a stable system.
Currently your client has grown its heap to 1G, which means your client is using ~1.5G of system memory.
Your OS and background processes are hopefully using less than 1G, which would allow your server to use 5.5G probably.
If it is using more, that could cause your trouble.
This is also the kind of problem that could develop over time as your world and your development of it gets larger, and takes more memory.
Thanks for your reply, I already knew that I was giving the server & game more memory that I have together, but I'm not a fan of automatically cutting off their resources. I have been monitoring my RAM usage myself instead instead of giving them limits. My memory usage with server & MC both running is only around 60-65%(including OS, Browser, etc). I doubt this is the problem, but I will continue to keep an eye on it.
I also noticed the sound usage which has me completely puzzled also. I've been looking into that myself & think it may be due to a sound bug in IC2 that is still around. I'm going to try removing certain sounds from the mod today. I'm more concerned about the high tick usage. I've read about it being related to the number of entities in your world, but it makes no sense that leaving my house(where the most block updates and item entities are) would cause it to expand in usage rapidly(occasionally up to 90% by it's self). We haven't set off any nukes or had any explosions that would cause a high amount of loose items in the world at all...
Edit: Tested, and it was the sound bug causing my lag. Specifically the watermill loop. I deleted that sound and my game is running fine again. Better than fine, my fps doubled from 100-120 to 180-200. Sorry to waste people's time when it was a mod causing it. D:
So my friends and I decided to host a new server with IC2, redpower, buildcraft, forestry, the works. It works completely fine for an entire week, no issues 100+ FPS, and now all of a sudden I can't leave my house. if I try to go anywhere more than a few steps outside my house my fps drops to 1-10fps and the game lags me to death unless I just sit there and don't move for 5 minutes, and even then, my frame rate never goes back above 40 with minor lag spikes.
I'm hosting the server on my PC but like I said I had zero issues before today.
as my launch parameters(both server and client respectably). No one on my server complains of this lag, & the only thing I have that they don't is optifine(they use mcpatcher).
I would rather not switch to mcpatcher because of a bug it creates with some of my textures(biofuel in forestry becomes invisible for some reason).
Try to start with a fresh minecraft directory, just to see if it behaves the same way as it does presently. When you run the mcpms_1001...jar file, the pop-up window that has you login should come up, if it starts minecraft straight away, you won't have SMP support.
Ok, I tried it with a fresh install of Minecraft and got the same results as before. No multiplayer, but what I did notice is it isn't popping up the launcher window(log in window). It's just going straight to the game. From the sounds of it, this is the problem, but what is making it skip that step?

Great way to check when parts of Minecraft are down.

Awesome mod though... one of my favorites by far!

Can't wait for this to be SMP some day! xD

I kinda got that, I was just wondering if the guy I quoted knew, since he was obviously going to try it.

I see the unofficial version is "Untested" So can you tell me... Does it work, and is it just like the original(this one)?
