CRAFTBOOK-2961 - Reported by Daniel.Spooner
so i've been running a minecraft server in various forms for a while now and for the most part no issues with craftbook but lately we started making heavy usage of the pipes and related IC's sorters/distributors ect ect however lately we've been getting disconnected randomly and each time we get an error in the console.
craftbook version: 3.8
Snapshot: 3728
I've uploaded the screenshots to: http://s54.photobucket.com/user/spoonerds/library/Craftbook%20Errors
EDIT: also just noticed i could upload images here.

Those errors are a bug in vanilla mc where redstone causes an infinite update loop. That'd most likely be the cause of the lag, and is only shown as a craftbook related error as the redstone is either immediately after a craftbook mechanic output, or at an input. Most likely an output judging by the error.

so would the best solution be to slow down any clocks we have that are hooked up with any of the pipe networks we have?
Comment by me4502
Uh, that would slow down the occurrence of the issue, but as for the root cause, it's probably a circuit built in a specific layout. I don't believe anyone has actually found the cause properly yet
Comment by Daniel.Spooner
so like a specific type of redstone clock... i only know of 4 atm... i'll see if i can get the errors to repeat with only certain redstone clocks running at the time... but if it is a vanilla error i doubt there's much that could be done even with the knowledge of which redstone circuit is causing the issues.
[EDIT] this may take a while to discern as there are numerous redstone clocks running using the various methods. but as soon as i have any finding i'll post here.

so the error could occur just by toggling a redstone circuit on/off with a lever?
Comment by me4502
It could technically occur by placing a repeater, and toggling it with a lever. It is such a random bug that happens with very certain placements of redstone, that's its hard to trace.
Comment by Daniel.Spooner
hmm well i think that about exhausts all our options then if it's that hard to trace i guess we'll just have to live with it for now.
Comment by me4502
The only real way to fix it without finding the blocks that are causing it, would be to disable redstone entirely. It's a very rare bug that can happen in some cases. It is also known to occur with doors and cacti in some arrangements.

okay well thanks for the help if it is just ones piece of circuitry causing the issue i guess i'll have to go through a process of elimination to find out which one =).. thanks again for all the help.
