Juuseri Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Hi, I was just wondering is there a way to sort items evenly with pipes? In the Tekkit Classic there seems to be a handy pipe called "Distribution Pipe" but I can't seem to find anything like that from the new Tekkit... I have a Planter & Harvester and I'd like to return half of the seeds back to the Planter and the other half to Bio-Reactor. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rogueclon946 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Thermal expansion itemducts are configurable with a wrench. Red and green affect routing priorities, the option you want is round robin distribution. As far as i know that tries to evenly distribute its output between all available inputs inthe duct network. Round robin is orange and only available on the same duct that is set as an output, which would be your harvester. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TonyVS Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 you would be better of with a logistic system or applied energetics system. you can sort, craft, and smelt automatically Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those both work but itemducts are cheaper than AE unless he has a network up already. And I've never used logistics pipes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think I'll try to find some good tutorial on those Logistics Pipes and AE systems, thaks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyVS Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 dirework20 makes awesome videos I have used both but I much prefer applied energetics, as a base with logistics mixed in Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
