Hi guys.

I may have some contribution.

Tonight, i was playing with waterproof teleport pipes and found some glitch/bug/error thing. First of all, i made 4 platforms to pump oil, each having 5 teleport pipes to suck oil from 5 tanks. All were set to same frequncy and weve hooked together. No problem at all. So i hooked other waterproof teleport pipes to my other tanks next to my refinery.

All was working until i did this:

Placed 2 waterproof teleport pipes (WTF) like [WTP][AIR][WTP]. Set on same frequency and to recieve. All worked until i placed another one in the middle (they hooked up together) and opened frequency GUI. Got disconnected and server kept writing some error about java something something. In minecraft it said read timeout (and something about socket and network, dunno), then server not reachable. So I stopped the server and started it again. Same error as before.

Almost sh*ted my pants that i will have to start all over again. Because I like to play with stuff, I found a way how to repair it. Here it comes:

1)Stop the server.

2)Go to server directory, buildcraft directory and config directory.

3)Open AdditionalPipes.cfg file with WordPad (or maybe other simple text editor might work).

4)Find enableLiquidsTeleport=true in the text.

5)Change true to false and save changes to the file. Dont close the text editor.

6)Start the server. It will report some problem with pipes but will work. So connect to the server.

7)Remove (destroy, annihilate or do what you prefer) with the problematic pipe that messed up your server.

8)Disconnect from server, stop the server.

9)In WordPad window (if you closed it, follow steps 2 and 3) and change enableLiquidsTeleport=false back on true. Save changes. May close the WordPad now.

10)Start the server again and watch how it runs again. Maybe you will have to open frequncy GUI on the pipes that were near the problematic pipe and hit that receiver button twice (to let the pipe update settings) or remove the pipe and set a new one.

Hope i helped someone. :-)

BTW, this might work with other buildcraft issues as well, pobably other teleport pipes or stuff. Just change respective value.

HAPPY MINING :-D
