Crafting with GT powered tools

If GT electrical tool you need to use for crafting runs out of power, it will get deleted completely.

Power and durability is stored in NBT tag (not as meta value as in most mods). Using the tool in any good old crafting table (being it modded or vanilla) works perfectly.

Tested in rv3-beta5
GT: 5.09.19

Does that also include other automated crafter's like Molecular Assembler or the crafters from EIO and RFTools?

commented

eIO Crafter seems to not consume the energy at all.
Molecular assembler deletes tool.

By "good old crafting table" i meant crafting table, XACT crafter, TiC crafting station.

AE2 will delete container items, once they reach zero durability.

No idea about the actual reason, but I would highly assume it is done to prevent broken ones from underflowing and causing issues or duping them.

I still favour the current approach over changing it. Occasionally destroying an item is still better than starting to dupe items.

commented

Deleting items once they reach zero durability is completely fine. But in GregTech it deletes the item when it reaches 0 EU, and doesn't care about durability at all.

commented

It has durability and charge?

commented

Yes it has both. And both stored as NBT

Does anyone prefer another solution than the Molecular Assemblers, for simple taske - like making a Oak wood to Oak wood planks etc? In the latest version of FTB, the ME-system is simple stops working, then we're using molecular asssembler to simpel tasks like this.

In our setup, we used 8 molecular assemblers to do different tasks - but after something like 1-2 minutes, every ME-task (AE) is freezing - even ME Import from our Ender-chest and so on..

So, after looking around, it looks like our power-setup can be blamed for the issues ;-) With more than 600 of the smallest solars, something just messed things up. Everything is working fine again, so i will continue using Molecular Assembler ๐Ÿ‘
