    Whenever I've tried to use conductive pipes they connect all right but they will not let MJ power flow through then over more than 2 conductive pipes, no matter what type they are.

    Not sure if the same bug, but conductive pipes seem borked to me too. My centrifuge is running terribly slow with an array of 3 electrical engines, one of which has several upgrades on a large circuit board to increase MJ output.

    Hmm yeah, Even if its not the same bug something seriously borked with the buildcraft we have.

    Have also heard from at least 3-4 others about the pipes not working over a distance of 2 or more blocks, and when it's within that range, the engines seem to be getting a minuscule amount of energy to a machine.
    Perhaps the power-loss rate of golden conductive pipes was borked?

    Its the most logical explanation that something happened to the power-loss rate more then anything else, because it took at least 30 seconds to craft a set of candles when the carpenter was right beside the energy link. So hopefully it gets fixed in the client/server update coming soon, if not someone will pay.

    Definitely. Took me at least 20 minutes to craft a woven backpack.
    Perhaps we should try stone conductive pipes and see if the same problem exists?

    I tried them a while ago and they didn't work, but a while ago I think maybe sk might have fixed them idk they worked for me for a little while but then stopped.
