Description
You can access the picked up items by rightclicking the block, or piping items out of the bottom. But do note, that you can only pull items out of the plopper, and not put any into it. It's not supposed to be a storage solution :)
### Showcase
Here is a video showing off the block. The birch planks represent the area in which the plopper in the video can pick up the items (note that the items dropped outside of the range don't disappear with smoke particles).
As you can see, the block comes with a sound and particles. Both can be turned off via the configuration file.
Like previously mentioned, the plopper works with pipes (in this example, Itemducts from Thermal Expansion)! By default, you can only extract from the bottom of the block, but that's toggleable as well. (The lever is not required for the plopper)
