Casting table not breakable and throws error on crafting

[Savallator]

Hi,
when i place a casting table, i cannot break it outside of creative mode or using a ars magica dig spell. Even explosives or a mining laser wont work. The funny thing is, if i start a new singleplayer world, it seems to work, at least the breaking of an cheated-in table. I have had this issue on my old server (with another save) as well.

Also, when i try to craft something, i get the following error :

If more information is needed, please ask for it and i will try do provide it. I can also do some specific testing if needed.

[ReikaKalseki]

It has a null placer. Delete it.

[Savallator]

It happens with every new table i try to plant, no difference if i build them normally or cheat them in via creative mode.

[Savallator]

I already figured that the placer is not set correctly
However, it does so every time in that world, for every table I placed. I can not find any errors related to the placing, but I guess it might be a Cross-mod interaction.
If the table is placed, will it check for a null player?
If so, then the problem might actually be saving the player and not retrieving it.
If that is not the case, I have no idea which other mod would cause a null player to be returned.
I do have some extensive, content changing mods installed like gregtech, thaumcraft and ars magica, maybe one of them is at fault here.

[ReikaKalseki]

This happens consistently?

[Savallator]

Yes, with every new table I place

[ReikaKalseki]

Are you playing in offline mode?

[Savallator]

I and every player on the server is using a legal account,
But I am not sure if the server is accidently set to offline mode. I will check as soon as I get home in about an hour

[Savallator]

Ok. So the server is in offline mode for some reason, although i dont know why. I cannot switch it without greater problems, as it seems like all players would loose their inventory.
Also, since this day, i get a chromaticraft related crash whenever i click an item in NEI:

There is your problem. Fix it.

[Savallator]

Okay, switching to online mode fixed it. Maybe, for a future release, add a warning somewhere about this?
The other problem however persists, i will make a new Issue for that

[ReikaKalseki]

If I do anything it will be making CC not work at all in offline mode, or at least an update-checker-style "this will not work".

[Savallator]

That's exactly what i meant.

It already doesn't work at all in offline mode. It just needs to be more obvious 😁
