Possible bug: MFSU stops working for no reason

    My MFSU randomly stops providing energy, I have an MFSU attached to (tried attaching with and without wiring) a transformer of the MV variety, which then hooks up to my advanced machines. They have a continuous redstone signal to them and often have stuff inside them yet they will randomly just stop. I actually have to knock off my mfsu, ALL my wiring (carbon fibre), my MV and sometimes even my machines and put them back down for it to work again. I don't have this problem with an MFE or a batbox.


    Any ideas?

    Try badgering around with the redstone dust button.
    It might be on the 'Do not emit when full'.

    known bug (and already reported several times) when you change dimensions (Nether or The End) your MFSUs stop working. just re-orient them twice to get them to work again.

    I was actually concept designing in creative mode when I found this bug so didn't dimension change at all, on SSP I've only just really started playing with IC2 and haven't actually got an MFSU yet. I shall however keep that bug in mind for future visits to the nether after I get one.

    Ah did not know about that function, I'll have a bash at it and see what happens, thanks!

    I build in some kind of method to pulse all my transformers with redstone, which miraculously un-sticks them when this inexplicably happens.

    Note that some delicate or careless designs will not tolerate a temporary transformer polarity reversal, but so far there's only been one serious explosion.
