nanitozo's image (in post #1048 ) was using something other than the portable/debug scanner to show the steam amount (some addon for Waila/Wawla maybe?)
Oh I should have mentioned that that's WailaNBT.
I'm just reading the mStoredSteam tag and outputting it to waila. Same with mStoredEnergy for EU, and fluids/inventories in pipes.
It's a great aid for debugging.
Display MoreAh that makes sense.
Also while we're on the steam topic: I have a few questions that have bugged me for a while.
1. Are steam machines one way valves for steam? Put another way can a steam machines internal buffer output to adjacent pipes?
2. What happens at pipe intersections? How is the amount of liquid to go to the two or three adjacent pipes/machines calculated? How do pumps affect this? How about fluid in adjacent tanks?
1. afaik, steam machines can only take steam as input, not output it.
2. There's a fairly thorough explanation of pipe mechanics here: http://ftb.gamepedia.com/Fluid_Pipe_%28GregTech%29

So if I wanted to feed a large number of machines I would want to make a network of splitters. Could I instead use a large number of pumps on series to prevent even distribution to the faces?

Technically that should work, but it could make it a lot more complicated to get the distribution you want. Also remember that you can add a plate or foil on the side of a pipe to prevent it from connecting to an adjacent pipe (or machine) on that side, and you can connect different-capacity pipes together to affect flow rates.

Ah so if I have a huge pipe connected to two small pipes and a huge pipe then more than 1/3 of the fluid will go to the huge pipe?

As long as the first huge pipe is full enough, I think so. It will still try to divide the fluid evenly, but once the small pipes are full, more fluid should go into the other huge pipe.
Updated to 5.08.25:
Changes:
Fix Steammacerator cobble -> sand recipe.
AE2 Charged Certus removed(did not work anyways).
Lapis to Plantball compression with Agricraft installed fixed.
Lava in Heat Exchanger more efficient, in High Pressure Boiler less efficient.
Fixed Large Turbine and Heat Exchanger water rounding bug.
Allow automation of single use batteries in battery buffers.
Nuclear Control cards support expanded(Quantum Chest/Tank, BatBuff, Machines show EU).
And also a Teaser for 5.09.00
I guess about 2-3 Weeks until i'm done, but that update will change a lot.

IC2 Heat Exchanger, GT (single block) High Pressure Lava Boiler?

LIGHTNING ROD?
For the central structure in Blood Asp's image, my guess would be oil derrick.
nice 
I am having another EBF issue. The recipe for Electrical Steel is not working in the EBF. Aluminum is a higher temp and works fine, and no catalyst is called for in NEI. What am I missing here?
Electrical Steel is a HV recipe, Aluminium "just" MV. So, might it be that problem?
That's it. Resource pack does not display criteria below NEI recipes very clearly, esp. in my dark factory. Thanks again.
Bloodasp,
Will the new 5.09.00 update support being installed on existing worlds that were previously running 5.08.xx?
A small note regarding the magic generators, you might want to make their recipes more accessible on the GT tech, to be a mid GT tech (titanium to tungstensteel) and end TC tech (voidmetal).
The current LV recipes are loosely based on the GT4 recipes and higher tiers then more expensive... I also think they are a bit high, but it is also difficult not to make magic stuff too cheap.
Some exact ideas about better recipes?
Not change the recipes because powerful Items and Machines need expensive Recipes!
Did you fix redstone to redstone blocks with Agricraft?
Is it intended that you can craft Quartz blocks without the compressor?
If I have Gemblocks for GregTech installed I only get Thaumiumblocks from that mod not the ones from Thaumcraft. Do these work in with the Infusion Altar?
