How to set up a 'queue' of ores?

[ratchet freak]

BTW, I'm not going to deactivate my boring machines as I need a huge deal of smoothstone in order to make singularities for a networked AE system.

you don't need smoothstone in particular; you can use any item.

setup a cobble gen and feed it into the the machine, or feed the armor and weapons from your mob trap into it

True but smoothstone is what I have most at the moment

It comes out around 256k items, so that's a lot of smooth stone.

I have 350k already right now

I fond a solution as well. You set distinct interface to export every ores then you "mixed" them into a long pipe of one item at a time into a chest. It's crucial that the flow at that point is slow if you dont want jams. So you might want to use specific pipes (BC, transfer node? ).

That mixed chest the export in a round rubbin item duct. You place enough AE interface in the way to absorb all the excess ore. So at the end the extractors receive less then what they can process.


Oh wait... Can't we just set an autonomous activator to export one random stack of his inventory into a dirt chest ? Omg would be so much easier...
