Slimefun glitched barrel

[oah]

Please don't decide to remove barrels from the server!
This is a simple problem to resolve.
I know first hand that sometimes barrels glitch.
It's not a big issue, and Barrels are something that sets this server apart from other SF servers, I have not found another that uses them, and I have no interest in looking for another.

DShifter hit me up to ask for reimbursing 9 diamond SF barrels the other night and, although I have been granted the ability to replace any glitched SF item for a new replacement, since I'm not actually staff, I didn't feel like I had the authority to 'negotiate'.

If a staff member would like to have me give DShifter the ingredients as reimbursment, i'll be more than happy to do it to fix this issue.

We can definitely replace everything DShifter, but we will need to get rid of that plugin, we'll be letting everyone know ingame. And yikes, I totally understand where you are coming from. The concept of the barrels is good, but if the plugin keeps messing up, we need to remove it. Sorry you lost your stuff, and again, we will be happy to replace everything and at least trade those barrels for a heap of shulker boxes?

In this case, deep storange units, so called diamond barrels are buggy. the rest works as intended. definitely no need to disable the whole barrels plugin, so I am on oah's side. the next smaller one can hold 512 stacks, which is not that massive as the diamond one, but still way better than chests+hoppers.
so if possible, disable just the diamond barrels (with a long enough warning) and keep the rest.

I am fine with disabling diamond barrels, but I've never had a single problem with any other type.

I've noticed that in the Lore of the item, it says 1048576 stacks of space. But apparently, on all the forums and description of Slimefun plugin I can find on google. The correct number for deep storage unit should be 16384, and that number is 1048576/64. That's the first glitch.

That is not a glitch, it's a typo by the creator of the mod.
The barrel holds 1,048,576 items, not stacks of an item.

[oah]

How about if we leave diamond barrels and if someone doesn't wanna use them they don't have to?
I really don't want to play without the diamond barrels.
This is a pretty knee-jerk reaction to quite a minor incident.

It's quite annoying for staff to keep replacing them though, so consider that

That's what oah is doing on a regular base, at least with cargo inputs and energy capacitors (which break after every third to fifth server restart for me)
Don't know what exact permission oah has, but since he is SF helper, I am guessing he can replace stuff.
Surely if barrels break, the items held are lost, too. broken inputs only need to be reconfigured (white/blacklist & channel) and that's it.

Diamond barrels hold 32 times the amount of large barrels, so I understand it would be time and space consuming to just use the large ones.
So my suggestion would be: restrict diamond barrels to certain slimefun ranks (see other thread) with an issued warning about their higher chance of breaking - and losing these stored items.

I've never heard of anyone needing one replaced before, including the original poster who did not want replacements.
Have you ever needed a barrel replaced?

[Charlie396]

I don't deal with that sort of thing, so I don't pay the best attention to it in-game xd
Might as well ignore what I said before if they don't get replaced

I'm just gonna put my opinion into this. When i first started to use barrels, they were glitchy from the start. And it was the smallest barrel you can make. I have also had my fair share for replacing these barrels over and over, and it isn't fun. I do understand that you guys use them for automation, but its just a pain to replace them over and over and over again. But hey, that's just my opinion.
