Yes Black Sand is only Source of Ferrovanadium. And what you use it for is your choice

There is a Tungsten Tap for that.
And yes Pipes get that Bonus, while Tanks dont. This is intended so you can still transfer Stuff but dont get the dumb Idea to store Stuff youre not supposed to store in the first place.

What would be the ingredients to make H2O2 in a Lightning Strike Machine?
-
I see. How about adding the ability to filter to the conveyor? Also when you added the lightning processor, I thought you made it able to create hydrogen peroxide, but it appears that still has no recipe. Is that something else coming or should that be added to the lightning processor?
Wait for H2O2? Why that?
-
Oh wait, I think I remember now: a retriever will reach through the pipe to a far away machine that normally will not push into the pipe and pull things from the machine into the pipe, to itself, and then inject them into the machine it is attached to, right?
Yes that's it. Can also be a far away Chest or Item Barrel. And also yes to your Machine A B thing.
-
Ah right CoFH did make Retrievers too later on, so that might be the case.
-
So it's a conveyor belt that can be filtered? Does it have different speed tiers like the conveyor belt?
Do you remember Retrievers from GT5 and Redpower? It's that in Cover Form.

Yea, I'm now certain that the whole aqua regia platinum group sludge thing is too weak. Purified sheldonite and platinum can be washed in aqua regia, but if you centrifuge them instead you get 10 times more iridium. Acid washing should be better than the much simpler centrifuge.
Really? I am gonna double check that in NEI soon, there might be buffs to the aqua regia thing if so

Sorry for the delay but the forum wouldn't keep me logged in, and whenever that happens I am too lazy to enter my password and everything again so I just wait and hope for the thing to fix itself, which does eventually happen.
So you can mix molten tungsten with molten steel to make tungstensteel, so why can't you mix molten tungsten with carbon dust to make tungsten carbide?
Unsure why, but its meant for molten Stuff and carbon aint molten, that's why Crucible.
Now that not one but two lithium batteries have been reintroduced, did you go a little crazy on their capacity Greg? I mean at the LV level, we go from the next lower two types at 128k to 2 and 4 million for the lithium types. Isn't that a little... insane? Shouldn't it be 256k and 512k? Or maybe 512k and 1M? And if you can make the first lithium battery, the second doesn't seem any harder, so it seems like the only two batteries you ever need to make are lead acid where you just need a small buffer, and lithium manganese for the big storage. Forget alkaline and nicad; what's the point?
The capacity isn't a little Crazy, it is actually quite low considering how everything produces and consumes more Power overall.
And sometimes alternatives just EXIST, there doesn't need to be an incentive.

OH NOW i realize what you did wrong, yeah LV to MV would have been needed for that kind of precision.
Well, I cant fix it without breaking anyone's Setups now, so its gonna stay like this. I never intended it to be used for precision turbine -> dynamo -> transformer at all anyways. I always intended some form of Buffer Battery Box in such a Setup.
-
I think there is something with your transformer that caps the throughput at 64.
-
But again I said its two Amps if you use two Dynamos. Voltage does not magically go up.
-
0.75 * 0.6666... = 0.5
3 Quarters multiplied with 2 thirds is a half. Don't know where your 0.6875 came from. Nor do I know where your / 3 comes from.
Also remember that 2 Steam = 1 GU, that's why I divided by 2 twice,
And if you up the Tier of the Electrolyzer you have to supply 4 times more power, don't forget that.

Strange.. I have been using this setup for a while now to run MV electrolysis: 2 dense invar boilers + 1 regular invar boiler to produce 288 steam/t feeding a steel turbine producing 96 RU/t driving an MV dynamo producing what I thought was 60 EU/t. I have two of those going through one 1x copper cable into an LV-MV transformer to combine it into a single MV packet. I just re checked the math though, and the dynamos are actually generating 66 volts. Minus 1 for the cable should mean 65 is going into the transformer, which should be 1 volt too high for it to accept, but it works. Why?
((128+128+32) / 2) / 2 = 72 EU/t for the Dynamos. Yes I made it so that Steam -> RU -> EU is exactly 50% loss. But if you have 2 Dynamos then its 2 Amps of 36 EU/t which is fine for the Transformer.
-
is there any in game tech that will allow me to check exactly how much GU (RU/KU/EU) that is going into my machines? i know there are ways to check with wires, but is there any way for me to like, examine a machine to check the energy output when it comes to steam powered machines?
Right now not really, you mostly need to do lots of Maths to find those out. I will put something on the List for later.

Also Rivers do have Infinite Water still, to give an incentive to actually settle near a River.
-
has there been a recent change that would make it so that water no longer regenerates indefinitely? my pools of water that normally keep some things that require water are no longer infinite and i'm pretty sure the only major mod i've updated is gregtech
Did you recently install the Default Config Pack? CodeChickenCore (which is a requirement for NEI) has a Config to disable the Infinite Water Behaviour, and the Config Pack contains an option for that.

1421 pages for me, though i upped the posts per page thing. And yeah almost 7 years, but at 2020 i am starting to work on my own thing that should be way better than what I could do in GT6 with all the legacy garbage and Minecraft garbage i still have to keep up...
But hey, it's just about having fun.

Update Post.
And yeah I am not 100% sure on transformers having Mode Selection Support,
