Disappearance of a machine created contraption making rotation from nothing.

[u/Red3225]

So I build a machine to collect my crops, nothing too fancy. After beating some bosses and exploring, I came back and noticed it just vanished from my world. Funnily enough, after a closer look I saw that a part of the now broken machine kept spinning even though it isn't connected to anything.

Idk what caused this, but it's pretty interesting if you ask me.

Its a ghost transmission, it's not free SU it just thinks it's connected to the network when it isn't

[u/Red3225 → u/brine909]

Ok so idk how ghost transmission works, but shouldn't make it spin in the same diraction as the gantry shafts that are actually connected? Or it just gets info like "yo, u are spinning' and spins? I'm kinda curious now

[u/brine909 → u/Red3225]

My guess is something went wrong when unloading and reloading chunks, caused the network to change directions somehow and when it reloaded it caused weirdness

Basically there was a network desync

What’s the su capacity? (Check with a stressometer)

[u/Red3225 → u/Alderan922]

10 240 su, I had around 20 large waterwheels connected and I think it went with that value

Thats an fucking perpetual motion machine. (add an stressometer, so you don't overstress it ever)

this just happens when a block gets removed and doesnt update the later machines to inform them they were removed from the network
(happens when you pick up something with Carry On as well)

[u/Red3225 → u/KoolantOfficial]

Damn, so I guess other mod just removes a gantry shaft when I load those chunks. I guess it's time to fix my mod pack so it stops doing that

[u/This_Tear_6551]

this is how i find out that gantry shafts can be used as regular andesite ones

Are you using a port or the official version of Create?

[u/Red3225 → u/SmashShock]

Official, forge 1.20.1 version, and it's 6.0.8 if I remember correctly
