i am having issues with my railcraft tanks losing all their fluids when the chunks unload and then reload. why does this happen and is there something i can do about it. a 7x7x7 railcraft tank full of water will suddenly have little or no water left in it if i walk away from that chunk and then walk back.
If you do want them to intersect chunks, make sure to gold-block chunkload them. But i have to agree with Sandstroem. Try building them in 1 chunk.
This is due to the way chunks are loaded and unloaded, you'd experience a similar phenomenon with big rectors losing their fuel, some mekanism structures. You can press F9 twice to get an excellent visual on the chunk boundaries.
