Problem: MFSU wont stop sending power

  • Hello everyone, I'm not the best at explaining things so this might be a little hard to understand.


    Anyway, I'm having a bit of trouble stopping power going to my mass fabricator. I have a MFSU set up with a redstone circuit so that I can turn on/off its output face and so the mass fabricator. This works fine until the MFSU is fully charged. When fully charged, even with the restone current on, the MFSU will still output power to the mass fabricator until it has drained all other power sources (so the MSFU is not longer at 100%).


    Here is an image of the set up.



    The MFSU on the right is connected to my power supply (about 300 solar panals). The red cable goes to the mass fabricator, the blue leads to another MFSU in my house for me to recharge and the cable that goes round the corner powers the rest of my machines. The only way for the mass fabricator to get power is through the red cable (the MFSU next to it has its output face facing the wall, not the mass fabricator and all other cables in the house have been painted yellow).


    So when the MSFU on the right has power, the MFSU on the left will send power to the mass fabricator regardless of the redstone current (on in the picture). As soon as the MFSU on the right runs out of power (and so my machines and all my other storage units before it) the MFSU on the left will stop sending power to the mass fabricator when it reaches 9,999,488 EU.


    I am running the Technic pack V3.0 and so IC2 v 1.00
    I had an idea involving pistons and cables but pistons can't seem push cables.
    Hope that all makes sense and that you can help!

  • Its not a bug it is how it was made to be.
    every EU holding devices will continue to emit EU if when they are full (even with if a redstone curent is applied to it)
    It is for saving power and not wasting it when its full
    lets say you have some solar panels generating energy,your MFSU reach 10mil and then goes to waste. :/
    you can connect your Mass fabricator to a HV transformer and put a lever on it or wire it to a lever.
    (If yu are using a HV transformer use proper cabaling you dont want any BOOMS do you?)
