Well I've tried to use Itemducts but they're even worse. The quarry won't even feed into them. I have a pneumatic servo in the linked duct and have it set to ignore redstone (so that it activates without needing a signal) and have the junction set to output, but it still won't accept items. Nothing in the filter, ignoring NBT. Fuck me, maybe I have selective memory but I don't remember Technic releasing such clusterfucked "recommended" releases a couple years ago...things are not working together very well and there's so many redundancies in the releases of the past year. They need to get their shit together.
At any rate, I'm gonna give Heat Hunter's setup a try, thanks for posting that man.
