Sorry for getting here late. Been busy. And also, the program does not have anything to display on the screen at the moment. I have not integrated CCsensors into the code. That's going to be a while...

I need some help with this :D/> I set it up and connect the different coloured wires to each machine: Lamps, Solar Panel, BatBox, Macerator, Electric Furnace, Compressor and then initialise the program and try turning on the lights and they don't turn on, then I put Iron in the Macerator that is connected to the Batbox and it starts Macerating even tho it is off on the Program. I have a server up if that is the best way to help me :P/> Thanks.

The way that the macerator works, is that if there is anything to work on in it, it wil process it. MCS only turns on the advanced machines like the Rotary macerator, Induction furnace, etc. It adds a signal to them so that they can "warm up" before you turn on the rest of the system. As for your lights not working, how do you have it connected? I have tested, but have found no problems with this version.

Oohhhh I see. Gotcha! And is there a way to turn on and off the output from the BatBox and other storage devices?

Not that i know... but you may be able to use a splitter cable. I'm not sure how that item works though.

New update. 1.7 Beta is now available for download. Sorry about removing the code from the OP, having both listed would be silly, and ridiculously long.

Nice! Thanks for the update! What would also be nice is a pulse output for the frame motors so that way you can use those to move power pipes to your machines to turn them on and off :D/>

First of all, awesome program
I'm using V1.6.2 downloaded about 5 minutes ago from pastebin on an SMP tekkit bukkit server, and everytime my chunks get unloaded and the computer restarts, i have to do the setup wizard again (selecting cables, powersources, passwords, accounts etc). I'l try to put a chunkloader nearby, but the only chunkloaders working in bukkit are the Immibis dimensional anchors, and those have a chunklimit per player, so i can't use those everywhere i use the MCS.
Is this a bug, or is the only solution putting chunkloaders down?

That's indeed strange. I'll take a look at it when I can. The 1.6.2 should not do that. It's supposed to be stable.

I'm now constantly getting this problem, every time i configured everything, i get the redirecting message, and the lower half of the selection screen, and then it puts me back at the start of the install wizard again. I got past this part once, but the chunk got unloaded, and after restarting MCS, i just got the setup wizard again.

I tried it again, and this time i got to the normal control screen, but when i check systemstatus, it displays it twice in a row, saying firstrun: false the first time, and firstrun: true second time.
*edit: while trying to go back to main menu, it just restarted the wizard again.

That is really interesting. I have never received that type of error. Usually, errors in the program are due to a problem writing to the status program. Could you post your "status" log here? Feel free to delete your admin and user passwords, we don't need those.
Next, try just terminating MCS, then type "delete status", then run the program again. Let me know if you still have this error.

What do you mean with the status log? whatever the systemstatus says?

No. There should be a file labelled "status" in your computer. If you could post what is in that file, it would help me debug the issue a lot easier.
You can type "edit status" to view the file.

That was the first thing i tried, but it's just an empty file, nothing in it. Edit creates the file if it can't find it, right? So it probably doesn't even exist.
*edit: Sorry, i have to leave now, i'm at GMT+2 (23:37) and the miracle of public transportation requires me to get up at 5:30.

Well, my only suggestion is to try to delete "status" from your folder, then restart MCS. I am not near my Mincraft right now, so I can't test this. Let me know what you find out, and I will be testing later tonight.

Hello, it is me being stupid. Everything is wired correctly and entered the right colours for the system, but it says on for like macerator but the macerator is not on or the lights dont come on when entered?

Two bugs in two days? MADNESS! I'll look into it. Could you post what is in your "status" file? You should be able to type "list" and check if the file was created successfully, and "edit status" to view the file. I think the two errors may be related, and I'm going to need your file to debug this.
