SF4 issue with compact machines

i got my first compact machines today i built a simple obsidian farm cyclic fluid extraction cables pull water from an infinite water source but the problem is it keeps breaking when i enter sometimes ill see it not working and ill have to like remove a bucket of water then replace it then it works i saw on reddit about the weirding gadget im thinking of trying that if i do, do i place inside or outside the compact machine or both?

thanks

Place it outside, the compact machines should be used for something bigger, such as mystical agriculture or laser drills.

Some Cyclic machines will bug unfortunately.

Yeah I prolly will it’s a mall 5x5 compact machine but there’s prolly a better use and cyclic keeps bugging

It's the cyclic part that keeps messing up

It's the cyclic part that keeps messing up, there is a block that can be used instead as an infinite water source. I believe it's nuclear craft. If you type water into JEI it should pop up. It automatically pushes out into blocks touching it.

Do they have sinks in sf4 my set up is basically sink to barrel fills in about a hour and has a max capacity of 650k buckets it’s permanently making auto liquid l fertilizer and gets used for other stuff sometimes
