I remember there used to be these "Smart Pipes" and here are some features of them:
-When sending items they bounced back to the source if it didn't have room etc
-The had a logic in them in which they would either distribute to both sources equally or send only to the closest one, I can't seem to remember
-It was a yellow orange yellow color.

I know it's extremely vague, but I forgot what they're called and not sure if they're in FTB anymore. Thanks in advance any answer is appreciated! :)

Logistics pipes? If its what I think you are thinking of, I could never figure them out but they are still in monster 1.11 I believe.

Edit: just noticed I replied within the first minute of the post haha! I hope this is what you were looking for, here is a link http://www.minecraftforum.net/forum...9546-1-6-x-buildcraft-logistics-pipes?page=17

Edit #2: I figured out just now what you are talking about, those are redpower 2 pipes back from 1.4.7. http://i.imgur.com/NXIJnl.png

That mod has not been updated in a long time and the creator had been gone for a while but she is now back! she is now working on redpower 3 I believe, she was working on the rendering system the other day I think.

Yes! Those are the pipes. Thank you! At least I got the answer. Redpower was basically equal to the other core mods back then. What ever did happen to it? Did Eloraam just leave without a goodbye? Shame I can't use them anymore

a few of the 1.6.4 packs include a set of mods called project red, which duplicate most of the logic/wiring/lighting aspects of redpower. the only things you will miss is the redpower machines, frames, and the sorting stuff rp had. but most of that can be had very easily with logistics pipes anyway ;) to replace frames, try modular force field system, that has a pretty badass setup and its not just for forcefields, you can create self-moving platforms, fill/empty regions, etc. give it a try ;). instead of the rp cpu, you can use computercraft computers to interface with bundled cables as well
