Problems when working with the “mekanism” mod

[DubStalker]

I play on the build “Techopolis 3” version 3-2.0.
I observe 2 significant problems that make normal playthrough difficult.

1. When connecting a regular node to a certain side of the machine from “Mekanism” and the corresponding configuration of this side in the machine itself, node may not work as import and export. Moreover, at the first successful network connection to the machine after re-login node may stop working. The problem is solved by changing the import/export settings of other non connected sides of the machine.

2. А more serious problem. If the node for importing items into the machine from “Mekanism” is configured to supply and maintain a specific amount of these items in the inventory (less than a stack), then when performing the operation, the system adds the configured amount of items to the target inventory, but at the same time takes the whole stack from the warehouse inventory. The diff in this case simply disappears from the world. For example: I have configured the system that it would support in the inventory of the machine no more than 5 items. After using one item by the machine the system recharges it, but at the same time from the warehouse takes 64 items. As a result, 63 items are missing from the world.
   This bug is reproduced if the storage withdrawal is set to a stack size.

I confirm 1.: In ATM10. After re-logging, the Pressurized Reaction Chamber won't accept Bio-Fuel (and export Substrate) anymore. Mekanism-1.21.1-10.7.14.79 , xnet-1.21-7.0.6.

Can confirm, even in custom mod packs, xnet is unable to pull items from mekanism machines unless you specify them to push items on the left

mekanism - 1.21.1-10.7.18.82
xnet - 1.21-7.0.6

I have no clue what would be wrong on XNet side. Is this also reported to Mekanism?

[JonasDoe]

Not that I'm aware of. I'll create a ticket there! Are you refering to point 1) or point 2) or both?

Maybe an issue with how xnet (or even mekanism) handles the machine's inventory? I'm also using xnet on 1.16.5(in a custom pack) and have absolutely no issues

I confirm 1.: In ATM10. After re-logging, the Pressurized Reaction Chamber won't accept Bio-Fuel

Xnet might be disconnecting the machine from the network, I had this happen with refined storage, refined simply disowns some cables/connectors

[McJty]

But bio-fuel is a gas. Doesn't that require the XNet Gasses extension mod to support?

[jvdon]

In mekanism bio-fuel is an item, but it has been an issue with all items in mekanism, energy and fluids work though

[jvdon]

XNet only seems to have issues when interacting with Mekanism. For example, the Pipez mod works with Mekanism without any problems, and XNet works fine with all the other mods I’ve tested. So I’m not sure whether the issue lies with XNet or Mekanism.

I'm encountering a similar issue with the Seed Processor from Mystical Agriculture — every time I load my world, I have to open the XNet controller and recreate the import connection for that machine in order for it to work properly.
