by ADMIN 49 views

Introduction

In the world of Minecraft modding, compatibility issues can arise when combining different mods. This article explores a potential incompatibility between the Powah and ExtraStorage mods, specifically with regards to the Energizing Orb crafter. We will delve into the issue, its reproduction, and the relevant configuration and log output.

The Issue

The issue at hand is related to the locking options for crafters in the ExtraStorage mod. When using the "Lock until connected machine is empty" option with the Powah Energizing Orb, the crafter tends to pile in multiple ingredients, causing the Energizing Orb to jam up. This is particularly evident when attempting to craft high-tier items, such as the Spirited Ender Cell, which requires multiple of the same items to be energized.

Reproduction of the Bug

To reproduce this bug, follow these steps:

  1. Ensure you have the ExtraStorage and Powah mods installed.
  2. Configure the Iron AutoCrafter to point into the Energizing Orb.
  3. Attempt to craft a high-tier item, such as the Spirited Ender Cell.

Configuration

The following configuration was used to reproduce the issue:

  • Mod version: ExtraStorage-1.21.1-5.0.2
  • Refined Storage version: v2.0.0-beta.2
  • Forge version: NeoForge-21.1.148
  • Minecraft version: 1.21.1

Relevant Log Output

Unfortunately, no relevant log output was observed during the reproduction of the issue. However, the debug.log and latest.log files are attached for further analysis.

Conclusion

The potential incompatibility between the Powah and ExtraStorage mods, specifically with regards to the Energizing Orb crafter, is a significant issue that affects the crafting process. The "Lock until connected machine is empty" option, which is intended to prevent the crafter from jamming up, fails to function as expected when used with high-tier items. This issue can be reproduced by attempting to craft a high-tier item, such as the Spirited Ender Cell, using an Iron AutoCrafter pointing into the Energizing Orb.

Recommendations

To resolve this issue, we recommend the following:

  1. Update to the latest version of ExtraStorage: Ensure you are running the latest version of the ExtraStorage mod, as this may resolve the issue.
  2. Disable the "Lock until connected machine is empty" option: Temporarily disable this option to see if it resolves the issue.
  3. Use a different crafter: Consider using a different crafter, such as the RS2 AutoCrafter, which works flawlessly with the Energizing Orb.
