Hello - this is more of a question than an issue, but I don't know how else to get in touch with you.

Does the priority field on plugs do anything in any of the send modes?

My desire is to have all of my renewable energy being used as a primary source (like my magma generators), and only tap into my higher end but more finite sources (such as deep resonance) as needed to handle consumption spikes. If the magmas can cover the necessary RF/T, I don't want any energy coming out of my deep resonance plug.

I've gone about this so far with the 'smallest first' setting, but this is problematic because I've started to put in capacitor buffers, so the amount the plugs sees isn't necessarily what the generators can actually produce.

Is there some way I can have the net effect I want with any combination of settings (regardless of whether priorities are involved)?

You can ask questions on the discord server :) https://discord.gg/JVkVCV7

Smallest first / Largest First refers only to the priorities not the amount of energy it can move.
If you set your renewable energy plugs to have a high priority like 99, then make sure the send Mode is Largest First you should find that works for you. If it doesn't their may be a bug somewhere.

There is no other way to do it at the moment.

Hi!
I'm playing FTB Sky Factory 3.
FluxNetworks mod is awesome!
But the priorities system seems to be broken.
From this thread, I've finally found out how it supposed to work - but it doesn't seem so.
I've tried different combinations of setting plugs priorities and send mode, largest/smallest, but I couldn't set up it the way I want, it prioritizes energy pulling in some unobvious way.
In particular, I want to set up solar panels from Solar Flux Reborn to be the main power source, and lava/furnace generators from SimpleGenerators as a backup power source. However, I just couldn't do it - no matter what I do, energy is pulled from SimpleGenerators first.

@skupr You need to build a Flux Controller or none of the advanced features will work like priorities.
