Hopper Plus

Hopper Plus adds multiple tiers of hoppers with unique abilities to Minecraft! From filtering items to teleporting them across distances, these upgraded hoppers will revolutionize your automation setups.

Available for: Paper, NeoForge, and Fabric

Warp Hopper Showcase

Multi-Link System (Fabric/NeoForge Versions)

The Fabric and NeoForge versions also support advanced multi-linking capabilities for Warp Hoppers!

How It Works

Warp Hoppers in modded versions can create complex item transportation networks with multiple connections:

• Multiple Links: A single Warp Hopper can send items to multiple destinations and receive from multiple sources simultaneously
• Flexible Networks: Build hub-and-spoke systems, daisy chains, or complex routing networks
• One-Way Links: Each link is directional - items flow from sender to receiver
• Easy Management: Use the Warp Linker tool to create and manage all your connections

Key Features

• Multiple Outgoing Links: Send items from one hopper to many destinations
• Multiple Incoming Links: Receive items from multiple sources into one hopper
• Network Flexibility: Create any network topology you need for your automation
• Persistent Storage: Links are saved and persist across server restarts

Example Network

Here's a practical example of a multi-hop network in modded versions:

[Hopper A] │ │ (Link 1) ▼ [Hopper B] ──(Link 2)──► [Hopper C] │ │ (Link 3) ▼ [Hopper D]

What's happening:

• Hopper A → Sends to B (Link 1)
• Hopper B → Receives from A (Link 1), sends to C (Link 2) and D (Link 3)
• Hopper C → Receives from B (Link 2)
• Hopper D → Receives from B (Link 3)

This allows you to create sophisticated item routing systems for your modded automation needs!

Features

Tiered Hoppers

Hopper Special Ability Copper Hopper Item filtering - only picks up items you configure Golden Hopper 2x transfer speed (4 ticks instead of 8) Diamond Hopper Extended pickup range (2 blocks) Emerald Hopper Large pickup range (3 blocks) Netherite Hopper Ultimate hopper - fast transfer, long range, fire resistant Void Hopper Destroys all items - perfect for trash disposal Warp Hopper Teleports items to a linked Warp Hopper

Tools

Warp Linker

Used to link two Warp Hoppers together for item teleportation.

How to use:

1. Right-click the first Warp Hopper (becomes the Sender)
2. Right-click the second Warp Hopper (becomes the Receiver)
3. Items placed in the Sender will teleport to the Receiver
4. Shift+right-click a Warp Hopper to clear its link

Note: Links are one-way! The Sender and Receiver have different textures so you can tell them apart.

Advanced Features:

• Multiple Links: Warp Hoppers can have multiple outgoing and incoming links simultaneously (all versions)
• Visual Indicators (Paper): Color-coded floating indicators show link relationships - matching colors mean connected hoppers
• Smart Display (Paper): Hoppers show [SENDER] or [RECEIVER] tags with colored squares (■) for each link
• Efficient Storage (Paper): Uses SQLite database for fast, reliable data storage

Hopper Configurator

Used to configure the item filter on Copper Hoppers.

How to use:

1. Right-click a Copper Hopper with the Hopper Configurator
2. Place items in the 5 filter slots (only 1 of each item needed)
3. Close the GUI - the filter is now active
4. The hopper will only pick up items matching the filter

Tip: If no filter is set, the Copper Hopper picks up all items like a normal hopper.

Commands (Paper Version)

The Paper version includes powerful admin commands for managing hoppers:

/hopperplus give <type> [amount]

Gives you custom hopper items or tools.

Types:

• copper_hopper, golden_hopper, diamond_hopper, emerald_hopper, netherite_hopper, void_hopper, warp_hopper
• warp_linker, hopper_configurator

Example:

/hopperplus give warp_hopper 4 /hopperplus give warp_linker 1

/hopperplus stats

Shows statistics about all custom hoppers on the server.

Displays:

• Total number of custom hoppers
• Count of each hopper type

/hopperplus reload

Reloads plugin config and hopper data from the database, then refreshes floating hopper displays.

Permission: hopperplus.admin

Configuration (Paper)

Edit plugins/HopperPlus/config.yml to control visual effects:

visual-effects: # Hide floating link-status text on warp hoppers (icon above hopper is kept) warp-hopper-name-tags: true

Set warp-hopper-name-tags to false if link labels show through your builds. Run /hopperplus reload after changing this value.

/hopperplus debug

Debug command to check item metadata (useful for troubleshooting).

Permission: hopperplus.admin

Visual Link System (Paper Version)

Warp Hoppers feature an advanced visual system to help you manage complex networks with ease!

How It Works

Each Warp Hopper displays its link status with color-coded squares (■) in its floating name tag:

Display Type Example Meaning Sender ■■■ → Warp Hopper [3] Sends items to 3 different hoppers (green text) Receiver ■■ ← Warp Hopper [2] Receives items from 2 different hoppers (yellow text) Dual Role ■■■ → [3] | ■■ ← [2] Both sends and receives items simultaneously

Key Features

• Unique Colors: Each link pair gets its own color - matching colors mean connected hoppers
• Multiple Links: A single hopper can send to multiple destinations and receive from multiple sources
• Real-Time Updates: Visual indicators update instantly when links are created or removed
• Easy Identification: Instantly see which hoppers are connected just by looking at the colors

Example Network

Here's a practical example of a multi-hop network:

[Hopper A] │ │ (Red Link) ▼ [Hopper B] ──(Blue Link)──► [Hopper C] │ │ (Green Link) ▼ [Hopper D]

What's happening:

• Hopper A → Sends to B (red link)
• Hopper B → Receives from A (red), sends to C (blue) and D (green)
• Hopper C → Receives from B (blue link)
• Hopper D → Receives from B (green link)

All connections are clearly visible with matching colored squares above each hopper!

Hiding Name Tags

If floating link labels show through walls or floors, you can hide them while keeping the small icon above each warp hopper:

1. Open plugins/HopperPlus/config.yml
2. Set visual-effects.warp-hopper-name-tags to false
3. Run /hopperplus reload

Visual Link Labels (Fabric / NeoForge)

Linked warp hoppers show floating OUT→ and ←IN text above the block. To hide these labels (block textures and linker debug lines are kept):

Loader Config file Setting NeoForge config/hopperplus-client.toml showWarpHopperLabels = false Fabric config/hopperplus-client.json "showWarpHopperLabels": false

Connection lines still appear when holding a Warp Linker or sneaking.
