Different ways to transport Items, Power, and Fluids?

Items - BC, Logistics Pipes, Thermal Expansion (Ducts, & Tesseracts), Applied Energistics,
Fluid - BC, Thermal Expansion (Ducts, & Tesseracts)
Power - BC, Thermal Expansion (Ducts, & Tesseracts), IC2/Gregtech

These are for the mods I currently have on my server (the DW .19 pack, with Gregtech, Ender IO, Agricultre, Mariculture, Advanced Genetics, Advanced Power Management, Advanced Reactors, Big Reactors, Ender Forest, ExtraTic, Gendustry, Metallurgy, Advanced Solar Panels). The above ways are only what I know of off the top of my head, but wondering what the others are. I thought I saw in a mod spotlight that ender io had a way to transmit all 3 at once through some sort of compact pipe, but can't figure out what that was. Can anyone help out with other ways? Trying for something unique this time around.

Thanks

 

You mean, like they all function as microblocks and can occupy the same space, they just have to be placed seperately?

And can they be used in conjunction with covers, or facades to hide them behind panels and such?

 

Will definitely take a look at that. Would definitely be more handy for machines, like the MFR grinders, that have a need for all 3 without having to use all 3 sides.

What about the integration between mods? can you go from an ender io pipe to a itemduct, or would there need to be some sort of middle point, such as a chest, in between?

 

What about the drones from that new mod pnematicraft?

They are pretty nifty and have awesome animations

 

Was just speaking hypothetically of course. I just like trying different things out. As for the pipes themselves, how many different kinds are there for Ender IO? I thought I counted 5, but there seemed to be different tiers as well. The tool tip wasn't much help in trying to figure them out.

 

Energy, redstone, item, fluid, and ME. Insulated redstone and switch are variants of redstone.

 

The power, and liquid ones are kinda self-explanatory, the higher the tier, the more that gets moved. What about the redstone one? I am a little confused on these. What do they do exactly?

 

The coolest way to transport liquids is with tank carts.

 

There's also the P2P thingies in Applied Energistics, which can transport power or fluids.

I'm also pretty sure that GregTech adds things for moving items and fluids as well.

 

Also, Extra Utilities adds transfer pipes that can handle liquids / items / energy

 

Ender chests and tanks, of course. TE Portable Tanks can be filled with fluid and transported as items (though that's slower). OB Tanks can do the same.

 

The ender IO conduits join up to fluiducts and energy conduits from TE. I could not get the item conduit to connect directly to an itemduct though... you will need a chest in between in that case.

Ender tanks are very buggy for me. I break one, game crashes and when i log back in, the tank is now a chest. So I dont use them.

 

Sounds like you've got an id conflict. Are you using one of the base modpacks, or have you added other mods to one, or made your own from scratch?
