So we have come across an extremely annoying bug that we dub the "Furnace Glitch" and we are offering $65 for anyone that can create a permanent fix for this. Now before you read on you will only be paid after 2 weeks of the fix being in use and not breaking.

Okay of course there are some catches to something as simple as this and here they are:

This is a modded minecraft server running 64 magic mods and 42 plugins on a system called Thermos exact version details: 1.7.10-r0.1-SNAPSHOT : 1.7.10-1614.58

Now this is what is meant to happen: https://gyazo.com/20cd9285e3c3bd72111cf0266bd436d8 (Normal Furnace Mechanics)

Now this is what currently happens: https://gyazo.com/f73130894faccd685b33aad85eee4d78

Yes I know this is a modded furnace but it also happens with Vanilla ones too.
I have found a small hotfix that works for around 6 hours and then breaks and that is to uninstall EssentialsX and restart the server then add it back. I have a feeling that it is somehow getting mixed in with that, however there is no supported or fully functioning essentials version for this anymore as it is such an outdated version.

This is a reoccurring issue that first popped up a year ago when we first started developing 1.7.10 pack with MAGIC mods in, and is also an issue in multiple different modpacks (not just ours)

Our modpack: https://www.technicpack.net/modpack/wizard-academy.509607
Another modpack currently affected: https://www.technicpack.net/modpack/arcane-official.997262

Now: We cant simply just add and remove mods willy nilly as there are certain limitations and on adding and removing mods due to repercussions on singleplayer based worlds HOWEVER i have never had any reports of this glitch taking place anywhere but on servers which makes me want to think something is conflicting with a plugin.

Here is a full plugin list: https://gyazo.com/94cf16d02b828aa46d1f526bf71f44ca

If you need any more information on the server, feel free to reply however if it is information I dont/cant release fully public I will PM you it via MCM and I would love it if u can respect that and not spread any information around :D

Thank You to yas all <3

You might want to clarify to those who can do this if the source code can be made public or not. Would look good on a developer's Github if they contributed a much-needed fix to the modding community. :)

I am happy for the result of this to go public its an issue that bugs me and a lot of other server owners.
The only reason I am paying is cause whenever I report it or ask anyone nicely they are always like "we no longer support this version". I hope that throwing a little monetary reward in the mix will change peoples minds a little.

Any error log?

Looking through the logs there was nothing that stood out. I will upload an entire log to my web server so you can all download it and search through it. To see what you can find.[DOUBLEPOST=1529702027][/DOUBLEPOST]

Correction. It has connection IP's from players, am I allowed to post that public or is that a privacy issue?

Probably should not make those public, I would only say if the dev is very reputable/trustworthy. Also don't post them here or you will get banned :p

IP Addresses are considered personal data by GDPR so you can get into legal issues as well if you leak those

For anyone familiar with EssentialsX source code does it influence or edit the way furnaces work in anyway? To add XP? anything like that.

Try using another EssentialsX versión. Also try to use another essentials-like plugin.

Tried both, Even downgraded to the Original Essentials Version and the issue still came back after a certain amount of time.

There are no essential-like plugins out there that are any good. If this doesnt draw anything then I will most likely just make my own essentials plugin over the summer, but thats a lot of time and effort I dont particularly wanna put into something that may not even work.

I dont know what essentials features you need but I have an essentials-like plugin that I can share with you. Its a plugin I coded some time ago for a guy that never paid It.

If its got source send it to me and I may edit it, if this doesn't turn up positive. But Essentials is a good plugin that is a dependency for a lot of other things that I don't particularly wanna lose.

Yes I can send you the source code. It was not intended to be for a modded server but It might be useful.
I think right now supports 1.8-1.12 and It links to Vault.

Sure PM me it and ill get back to you in a few days if we end up using it :D

Does it only occur when the mod pack is used with those plugins?

Yeah. I have a really big tip off that it is essentials conflicting with some of the mods.
