Description
This requires the Fabric API!
This is primarily a mod to test implementations based on LibBlockAttributes, LibNetworkStack, and LibMultipart, using buildcraft's item pipe code as a base.
Note that as I'm porting BuildCraft to quilt/1.19.4 I won't be updating or improving this very much.
This currently adds 11 pipes:
- wooden item pipe (extraction, must be right clicked with an empty hand to change what it extracts from, requires a low -> high redstone signal for each item they extract. (In other words make a redstone clock))
- stone item pipe
- clay item pipe (prioritises inventories over other pipes when moving items around)
- iron item pipe (sends all items in a single direction, must be right clicked with an empty hand to change the direction it sends items in).
- gold item pipe (items travel through these at 2.6667 times faster than regular pipes)
- diamond item pipe (sorts items based on filters in its inventory). Each slot may either be an item (to filter against) or a "filter containing item" which can specify the filters. (No items in Simple Pipes currently provide this functionality, however if a mod has an item which provides ItemAttributes.FILTER then that will be checked)
- wooden fluid pipe (extraction, must be right clicked with an empty hand to change what it extracts from)
- stone fluid pipe
- iron fluid pipe (sends all fluids in a single direction, must be right clicked with an empty hand to change the direction it sends fluids in).
- sponge fluid pipe ("cleans" water flowing through it)
And 10 blocks:
- Fluid Tank: can hold 16 buckets of fluid or 48 potions.
Fluid Pump: Once per tick tries to pump fluid blocks from in front of it and inserts them into the tank behind it. Needs a redstone signal to work. - Item and Fluid Inventory triggers (empty, full, has space, contains): These send out a redstone signal whenever their condition is met for the block in front of them.
