Block Phaser loses blocks...

[Knaurmaul]

I was making a draw bridge, it usually works fine... I had connected two rows of block phasers seperately to each door, vertical, and hoizontal. I placed two switches at each end of the entrance, connected each to a Logic Gate. Connected the vertical Phasers, to the logic gate. Then placed an Inverter Gate, connected that, to the Logic Gate, then connected the Inverter Gate, to the horizontal Phasers. This way, I can flip a switch, and the values are always opposite each other...
Occasionally, I log in, and I will test the switches. Only to find that the Block Phasers, may have lost their memory, between games, or during loading. The blocks in the Phasers memory, actually disappear, forcing one to repair the loss, by using new blocks, on the Phasers path.

Sounds like a bug for sure.

Also try different machines to achieve the on and off and connect the two mechanisms. this way they will not interrupt each other.

Block phasers will remember blocks that you select in the path of the phaser. You need a wiring tool for this. Click N. You have to select everything in their path in green that you want it to manipulate and click Save in the menu. Then it should remember the blocks you want it it phase out.

I have this issue also. Only the blocks saved to the phasers disappear. If my phasers are running through other blocks, but are not affecting them, they remain in place. This is chronically happening with almost every phaser I use, and I am using about 8 of them with various block types saved.

For example I had two phasers holding 6 blocks of corrupted stone. I had not even logged out, or left the claim zone area while working on another project, and the corrupted stone disappeared and the phasers appeared to have nothing stored in them, no more green boxes.

Of importnat note, 100% of phasers losing their cargo I have been activating with levers. I have one phaser that uses a sensor, and it has never forgotten its saved blocks.

Completely restarting Creativerse from desktop, has restored the blocks missing from my phasers using levers/switches. FYI.

This happened to me as well, though my setup weren't near as advanced. I simply had block phasers connected to an inverter gate and a sensor to make some blocks appear when walking into a place. It seemed to work fine just after I'd set the thing up. But after being offline for some time and starting the game again, the phasers had lost most of the blocks.

i got a similar bug phasing mineral water; the water stays phased since a batch of things (dont ask why *cough* deals with intruders near my storage) are in the zone alone (no players detected) and whenever i log into game, the water is phased out and missing several parts/block; same with the "door" made of glass that opens when things die, the lower part (4x4) its always missing (2 out of the 4 blocks) whenever i login

1 - You guys necro'd a thread from October. It will probably be closed.

2 - Phasers still have issues, but the current issues are different than the issues when this thread started. Short story: If a phaser is ON (phasing blocks) when you leave/enter an area, there is a good chance blocks will disappear. Due to the recent chest bug (things not updating quickly at all) it's best to turn off all your phasers, then wait a minute or longer before leaving the area or logging out. Many players have started to AFK in place until the server boots them, ensuring maximum time in the area for chest/container changes to update. A phaser is basically a container, so be prepared.

@Jonse, your phasers are connected to an inverter gate. Some phasers will always be phasing blocks no matter the state of the circuit. When leaving/returning to the area you have a chance to lose any phased blocks. If you can find a way for your circuit to phase NOTHING when you first enter the area, then begin phasing when certain conditions are met, that would be safer. Also never leave the game or teleport away soon after changes to the immediate area.

@Aphroidite, "whenever I log into game, the water is phase out..." Make sure nothing is phased out when you leave or enter the game. That causes problems.

i make sure nothing is phased out, but stuff is phased out when i login
