Simple Pipes - Item and Fluid Transportation System
This mod requires Fabric API to function!
Simple Pipes represents a simplified version of the transportation system from BuildCraft, created to test the LibBlockAttributes, LibNetworkStack, and LibMultipart libraries. The mod adds various pipes and blocks for automating resource movement in your Minecraft world.
Item Pipe Types
The mod includes 6 different types of item transportation pipes:
- Wooden Pipe - designed for item extraction. Configure the extraction source by right-clicking with an empty hand. Requires a low-to-high redstone signal for each extracted item (needs a redstone clock)
- Stone Pipe - standard transportation pipe
- Clay Pipe - prioritizes inventories over other pipes when moving items
- Iron Pipe - directs all items in a single direction. Change direction by right-clicking with an empty hand
- Golden Pipe - accelerates item movement 2.6667 times faster than regular pipes
- Diamond Pipe - sorts items based on filters in its inventory. Each slot can contain either an item for filtering or a special filtering container
Fluid Pipes
The fluid pipe system includes 4 types:
- Wooden Fluid Pipe - for fluid extraction, configured by right-clicking with an empty hand
- Stone Fluid Pipe - standard fluid transportation pipe
- Iron Fluid Pipe - directs all fluid in one direction, configured by right-clicking
- Sponge Pipe - cleans water flowing through it
Additional Blocks
The mod also adds 10 useful blocks:
- Fluid Tank - holds 16 buckets of fluid or 48 potions
- Fluid Pump - every 0.05 seconds attempts to pump fluid from the block in front of it into the tank behind it. Requires a redstone signal to operate
- Inventory Triggers - send redstone signals when conditions are met (empty, full, has space, contains specific items/fluids) for the block in front of them
Add-ons
Expansions are available for Simple Pipes, adding new functionality:
- Pipe Pump - adds an engine for wooden pipes powered by TechReborn energy
- Pipes Plus - introduces new pipe types: copper, emerald, obsidian, and teleportation pipes
