  1. There is a sorter attached to the macerator, and the pipe attached to that

    ---------

    Tried putting retrievers on the macerators to pull the dust out.

    They would pull it out, but they would not send it to the color pipe I told it to.

    Does ANYONE have even a basic guide on how to make a redpower smelter/sorter system?

    Everything I come up is in LP format, uses buildcraft pipes, or isn't helpful at ALL

    --------

    To be specific, I need to

    -Pull from chest A

    -Sort from chest A, nether ores to macerator, regular ores to RM furnace

    -Pull ores from macerator, send to RM furnace

    -Pull from RM furnace, send to chest

  2. Because there are no logistic pipes in tekkit, I'm trying to build a sorting system with redpower tubes

    This is what I have

    ~all machines are on, have power, and have a pulse when needed~

    Alchemy chest as a dump point. Sorting machine attached from it, set to "any item with default route" mode

    1 macerator with a sorting machine, same settings

    1 furnace, with a sorting machine, same settings

    2 chests as end point

    I have the first sorter set to send iron ore to the RED pipe, and I have the pipe that goes into the macerator painted red.

    I have the second sorter, on the macerator, set to send iron dust to the ORANGE pipe, the pipe going into the furnace is painted ORANGE

    I have the third sorter, on the furnace, set to send iron bars to BLACK, the pipe going into one of the chests is painted BLACK.

    Now, I can get things going as far as having the ores sent to the macerator, and the macerator sorting machine sometimes takes out the dust, but then glows red with an error. I have NO idea what is wrong.

    Do I have to have a separated point-to-point pipe for routs, like one would have if they are making a sorting with buildcraft pipes, but WITHOUT logistic pipes, or would I be fine having a single path bus network, like logistic pipes, where only the end point is painted? I currently have a bus network..

    Thanks

    Tried something new

    GXibq.png

    Black = chest, top chest is the origin

    Orange = sorting machine

    Grey= macerator

    red=furnace

    The first sorting machine will pull ore, send it to the macerator, but the next machine won't pull it from the macerator

  3. I'm thinking this may be a client side issue, but here is the deal

    I put some ores in a macerator, and then I sign out. I have a world anchor in the same area as the macerator, so I would have expected it to do its thing while I'm not there.

    I sign back in, and whenever I open the macerator's GUI, the initial ores are still there. I'm not able to remove the ore or the dust as it is ground..

    I tried removing the macerator, placed it back, same issue.

    Tried disconnecting and reconnecting, same issue

    Tried restarting the server. Same issue.

    Any ideas?

    Turns out it looks like it was the ore.. I had nether ore, 135:2. It didn't work in the macerator, but when I put it in my furnace, it burnt down to an ore block, and then into a gold bar.. strange

    Now I have the same issue with an nether iron block :S

    Didn't nether ores uses to macerate down into 2 regular ores, instead of dust?
