Hey all, I was wondering if there is a way to make BuildCraft Builders work after making a blueprint/template with the Architect table. Is there a way to allow it to work inside a town? If not, does any one know of an alternative method to copy and auto build complex structures? I know that RFTools has a builder, but it seems like it can only do basic shapes. Thanks!

Last reset was about 2 weeks ago, so I thought I had a month. It would be great if I could get my items back. Is it possible to know a head of time when the mining world will be wiped? I thought it was the first Friday of each month, was July just an off month? I feel like I am going to have to make one of these requests every time the mining world resets at an unknown interval. Is there anything I can do to not have to spam a request every month? Thanks! Screenshots (Optional): I would attach a screenshot, but I am only allowed to post a file with 1.45kb. If a screenshot is necessary, you can find it on my last refund request:

It would be great if I could get my items back. Is it possible to knwo a head of time when the mining world will be wiped? I thought it was the first Friday of the month, but that no longer appears to be the case.

It would be great if one happened soon. I'd like to get back into this again, but I figure one could happen and day now.

Hi everyone, I would like to suggest enabling the potion generator. I know that the treasure bags that we all get absolute TONS of through mob grinding are basically useless, but I feel bad throwing away all of those potions that I get from them (the diamonds and emeralds are still nice to get). I think it would be nice to have some option to utilize them to turn a chest full into 1/10 mB of UU matter. Thanks!

I hope this is the right place, but if I could get a rank reactivation for IGN: Akademee, that would be great! Thanks for the wipe!

Yes please, IE cables are great for starting out, but it is very frustrating to have them disappear for reasons I can't explain or replicate. Especially once you start having hundreds of them throughout a base >_< By all means, keep them plastic heavy or make an expert recipe, but it would be very nice to have those back.

Hi everyone! I am having issues with placing down an RFTools Builder Block to replicate some base elements that I had built. I would like to know if there is something I have to enable in my claims in order to make it work. Every time I place the block down, it immediately return to my inventory. I have already tried setting modify to true, but this does not appear to solve the issue. The builder block placed down fine in the last iteration of the server so I really hope it wasn't banned. Thanks for the guidance @Manyouforgot @Kaszanka_1234 @brunyman! EDIT: Okay, so after talking with @Kaszanka_1234 I've been told that builders can't be used within 7 chunks of a town. This appears to be the case even when town perms are set to Modify:True. I don't know if this is a glitch as this was absolutely not the case in the last iteration of the server. I could use a builder within my town just fine, even with town within 7 chunks. I understand why Builders were restricted, but not being able to use them in my own claim is unreasonable, especially when I give it permission. Would someone be able to look into this? It is really frustrating to find out about this issue this way when I have done all of the prep work for it. Would it not be appropriate to include this information in the banned items post? Having secret rules and restrictions is a terrible way to run a server, guys. Thanks.

Hi everyone, I am not sure what is going on, but my base keeps getting rolled back every 5 minutes or so during gameplay. If I leave a chunk, it reverts back to a previous state with items disappearing, chests wiping, machines unbuilding themselves. This is extremely frustrating, especially in early game, I have lost so much and I am not going to post a refund request, very literally, every 5 minutes.. My smeltery is FAR away and I even break the controller when not in use so it isn't that. I am at a total loss as for what to do. Thanks @Kaszanka_1234 and all the other admins. EDIT: I'm sorry, this is literally unplayable for me right now. Do I have a corrupted chunk or something? My base is at -265, -4101. Edit 2: Okay so the problem seems to be fixed by placing down a world anchor, I shudder to think what it would be like if I didn't have access to one...

Hi everyone! I'd like to ask if I could get my rank perks reapplied to me for the new server. Thanks so much @Kaszanka_1234 @Manyouforgot IGN: Akademee

1. Problem- Chests emptying themselves in protected bases. " I went to get something out of my chests and everything in it was gone!" Cause- This is most likely caused by the Smeltery Bug where things (like chests) in the same chunk as the smeltery can have their values reset to zero/empty. Solution- Treat the Smeltery like a leaking nuclear reactor, you do not want it in the same chunk with something that you are not prepared to lose! Always make sure that your smeltery is contained to a single chunk and do not place any chests or multiblock structures within the same chunk as your smeltery. Akademee 2. Problem- All of my ME cables (or other multiblock structure) are all broken and not connecting to each other (or multiblock won't work even though it is assembled). Cause- This is most likely caused by a bug where multiblocks and some cables that are in the same chunk as a world anchor block or other chunk loader can become disconnected after a reset or severe server lag. Solution- Make sure that you do not have any multiblock structures or ME cables sharing a chunk with the world anchor BLOCK. All of the rest of the loaded chunks surrounding that center loaded chunk will be fine and do not exhibit this problem. This only happens in the one chunk that contains the world anchor block. Akademee 3. Problem- Smeltery not melting items even though item's progress bar in the smeltery controller is completely full. Smeltery taking FOREVER to melt somethign with correct setup/materials. Cause- Not entirely sure, it might be a TPS (ticks per second) balancing thing. Possibly poor personal chunk loading without an anchor or something. Solution- If you don't have a chunk loader block of some kind, your personal 'chunk loading range' of your player is only like, two chunks or something. Try doing some work in the chunk that contains your smeltery and remember, always keep your entire smeltery in one chunk! I have also found that the progress bar advances graphically, but that doesn't mean that it has actually advanced as far as the server is concerned. I have found that it helps to rapidly click anywhere in the Smeltery Controller GUI for a few seconds and the progress bar returns to where it 'actually' is. This is a strange one for sure. Akademee 4. Problem- Cyclic Assemblers will randomly cease to function even with correct setup and materials supplied. Cause- Not entirely sure, may be a balancing thing or lag prevention, Cyclics are extremely powerful autocrafting tools, especially for early game so I could understand that if they got nerfed. Solution- For mid game, constant crafting, you can use Liquicrafters instead but they need a redstone pulse in order to craft a single item. I would not recommend the redstone timer as while it is adjustable, it causes a lot of lag. Use redstone clock blocks instead as they are very low lag, but fixed at 20 ticks per pulse. Protip, redstone clock blocks aren't synced with each other, so if you place two redstone clocks in contact with a liquicrafter, you can get two crafts per second rather than 1. The server does not like more than two clock blocks in a chunk at a time, if you place a third, it will get stuck. Another workaround (the one I use) is that you can autocraft with an Extra Utilities Transfer node (with a world interaction card) connected to a crafting table with 1-9 JABBA barrels or tiny-chests (for non-consumable tools) behind it to form a crafting grid. You can look up more about this online, but you can dramatically increase the speed on this one with speed upgrades. Akademee

Hi everyone! I thought that with a new server and a new home for it, it would be helpful to have a thread dedicated understanding some of the inevitable quirks that are present on every server. I have been playing the FTB Mods for a long time, so long that we didn't even have Feed The Beast, it was just the individual mods! I have been on modded servers since Tekkit released for the first time, so I have seen my fair share of servers over the years. I can honestly say that CraftersLand is one of the best servers out there for FTB. That of course, does not mean that its perfect, far from it, but I have never seen a server with any where near this much staff involvement and engagement. With that said, every server (yes EVERY server) has its own little quirks that can steepen the learning curve and possibly frustrate some players if they are not made aware of them and are told how to prevent them from ruining their day. I would like to compile a list of these quirks and solutions here in this thread for any new to mid player to read. Many of you veteran members will no doubt already know about many of these and how to get around them and thats awesome! If you know of any quirks and solutions that are not in this list here, post them below and I will add them to the list up here at the top for all to see (with credit to the author). This is NOT a place to complain about the server!!! We have a whole subsection of the forums dedicated to that. Any posts simply complaining about a problem will be removed! If you would like to post something, please make sure that it meets the following rules: -State the problem/effect and is specific and known. -State the cause of the problem or what triggers it (if you can, if not, take a guess). -State a specific solution or workaround to the problem that you know fixes and/or prevents it from happening. Hopefully this will help some people out and cut down on some of the frustration we see with early players! Thanks everyone!
