Can you power a quarry with redstone engines

I am also unable to craft the philosophers stone. I think my tekkit is a bit bugged, I can't find nether ores either Back up your saves, delete the techniclauncher file, and load Tekkit.

The launcher file should be redownloaded automatically, and Tekkit should be bug free. I like to have a energy condenser making lava cells next to one or two energy collectors, then I pipe the cells into a geothermal generator and power an energy link.

That works well for a refinery, I think it would probably also work for a quarry. The combustion engines will run out of oil before they blow up so you don't have to worry about that. Once I get enough resources I power my quarry with one medium voltage solar array, an MFE and an energy link.

The medium voltage solar array produces enough power to recharge the MFE after it supplies the power all night. I'm set for quarries from them on. Alpha engines have two pistons in separate cylinders which are connected in series by a heater, regenerator and cooler. Both Beta and Gamma engines use displacer-piston arrangements, the Beta engine having both the displacer and the piston in an in-line cylinder system, whilst the Gamma engine uses separate cylinders.

Users questions. Can Redstone engines power quarries? What energy does BuildCraft use? How do you power a pump in BuildCraft? What is the best fuel in BuildCraft? What do you do with residue in BuildCraft? How do you power a steam engine in Tekkit? How do you make fuel in FTB? Do combustion engines explode? How do you stop a Redstone engine from overheating?

The Quarry, like all other BuildCraft Machines , has an internal energy storage in which it stores MJ until it can perform an operation. Because of this, the Quarry can be powered by any BC compatible engine. As the Quarry has only 4 sides free to attach Engines to, one way to power a Quarry is to place 4 Steam Engines on all 4 sides. Energy Links can be used to power the Quarry using EU. It is advised to place the Energy Link adjoining to the Quarry.

A Quarry can function at any level. Simply placing it against a shaft wall and powering it is all that is required to start the default 9 x 9 area. The blocks in the frame area will be destroyed. It is possible to create a Landmark frame as per above ground. It is not necessary for there to be an empty path for all of the Landmark beams. The beams can cross through all blocks. You may also want to carve out the entire area inside the frame, as these are not mined, simply destroyed.

To know exactly where, after setting your landmarks, Place your quarry but do not power it. This will give you a black and yellow frame you can use as guidelines. A Quarry can also function in the Nether, following all the same principles as above. Nether specific behaviors to note include:. Nether Ore must be smelted or Macerated into normal ore blocks before being further processed into resources.
