Is there anything in the Ultimate pack that can sort precise numbers of items the same way a RedPower sorting machine can? I want to be able to take a stream of items and split it to different directions in precise ratios. I know the sorting machine could do that, but I've done RedPower, I'd like to take a different tack. I'd also like to reduce my usage of RedPower so it doesn't hurt so much if it ends up getting dropped from the pack.

If you are up to learning lua or downloading the CC program I believe computer craft will work for you. Iirc DW even made a sorting machine with CC. I cannot remember which episode, but I believe it was a SMP in the prior or this season, Forgecraft1 not Forgecraft2.

Edit: Okay sorry he did use RP2 after all even in that example, SMP Season 2 Episode 55, or at least the frames to move between chests. What I was thinking of was using the compare function with the block IDs. Iirc CC can do that.
