# ⚡ FastPipes — The Pipe Mod That Doesn't Lag Your Server
Tired of pipe mods that eat TPS for breakfast? FastPipes is a **high-performance** pipe system for items, fluids, and energy — built from the ground up for **NeoForge 1.21.1**. Zero unnecessary ticking, smart caching, minimal network traffic. Your server will thank you.
Originally forked from the abandoned Refined Pipes and **completely rewritten** for modern Minecraft.
---
## 🔧 Three Pipe Types. Zero Compromises.
**Item Pipes** (Basic, Improved, Advanced)
— Smart priority routing, visual item animations flying through pipes, and machines can push items directly into the network. No extractors needed on the receiving end.
**Fluid Pipes** (Basic, Improved, Advanced, Elite, Ultimate)
— Real fluid transport with animated fill levels you can actually see. Filter what flows. Scale from 1,000 mB to massive throughput.
**Energy Pipes** (Basic, Improved, Advanced, Elite, Ultimate)
— FE/RF compatible. From early-game 1k FE/t to endgame 32k FE/t. Just connect and go.
## 🎯 Attachments That Actually Do Things
**Extractors** (5 tiers) — Pull items/fluids from inventories with whitelist/blacklist filters, redstone control, exact matching, and four routing modes: nearest, furthest, random, or round robin.
**Inserters** (5 tiers) — Mark where items should GO. Priority-based delivery means your storage system actually works. Items bounce back when destinations are full — no void, no loss.
Void — Destroys overflow items and fluids. Supports filtering by items/fluids.
Sensor — Emits redstone signal when matching items/fluids pass through.
## 👀 It Looks Good Too
- Pipes connect intelligently in all 6 directions with smooth 3D models
- Items visually fly through pipes with rotation animation
- Fluid levels animate in real-time inside fluid pipes
- All attachments render as proper 3D models on the pipe
- All pipes can be painted in any color by clicking on the pipe with a dye, they will be transferred to a separate network
- It comes with its own wrench! You can use it to disconnect and remove pipes. If you don't like the original, wrenches from other mods are supported thanks to NeoForge Itemabilites!
## 🧩 Plays Nice With Others
- **Jade** — hover over any pipe to see transfer rates, fluid contents, items in transit
- **JEI** — full info pages for every pipe, extractor, and inserter
## ⚙️ Fully Configurable
Every pipe tier's speed, capacity, and transfer rate is tweakable in the server config. Make it balanced for your modpack or crank everything to 11.
