Not a bug list
You will find a list of frequently misunderstood features.
Contents
Gear Box
- Does not receive mechanical Power. A gear box does hav a special Input side (The one with the Arrows pointing inwards). You must face it towards the energy source.
- Accepts input only from one side. A gear box just works that way in real life too.
- Will not start when powered by redstone. Redstone power will disengage the gears effectively stopping the energy transmission. You need to power it with mechanical power.
- Gear boxes placed next to each other will not transmit mechanical power. That's intentional.
Cauldron
- Destroys any food when Dung is put into it. Yes.. would you want to eat something that has been cooked with Dung in the same Cauldron?
- Will not start cooking when powered by redstone. You have to put a heat source under it.
Axle
- Breaks if one puts more than three in a row. The Axle is to long. Put a Gear Box in between.
Water Wheel
- Can not be placed. It is lager than a normal Block. (5x5x1 Blocks) The Space must be free of anything. (no Torches!)
- Will not turn. It needs flowing water at the bottom to turn.
Wind Mill
- Can not be placed. It is lager than a normal Block. (15x15x1 Blocks) The Space must be free of anything. (no Torches!)
- Will not turn. It needs the sky above it.
- Breaks frequently. It needs to be protected from Weather (Rain, Storms, Snow) so place a Detector Block so it is facing upwards and sees the sky. Connect it's Output to the Gear Box next to the windmill.
