Conveyance

This is a Fabric mod. You are free to port it to Forge, but any requests for ports will be denied. I do not have the free time to support builds for two different mod loaders.

General Information

Conveyance is a mod that adds three different tiers of conveyors, as well as (currently) three different sorting machines. It allows you to easily transport items from point A to B, both horizontally and vertically.

Unlike most other conveyor mods (including my previous ones), these conveyors are purely inventory-based, meaning they do NOT directly move item entities that are dropped on top of then. Instead they function similarly to pipes. This lowers the performance cost that all of the various item entities moving around on the conveyor would have. In addition, it looks way cooler than traditional conveyors due to this.

These conveyors are relatively slow compared to most pipes, but make up for that by being able to transfer a whole stack at a time between each conveyor.

Sorting Machines

The conveyors in this mod aim to be a perfectly usable replacement to pipes. One way it achieves this is via various sorting machines. These include:

- The Alternator: Sends every other stack the opposite direction every time a stack is input.

- The Splitter: Cuts the stack in half and sends each half through the left and right sides of the machine.

- The Inserter: A machine which grabs from the inventory behind and sends them into the inventory in front of it.

While only these sorting machines are included in the initial release, there will be many more sorting machines to come, and the models for existing sorting machines will be changed to be much more visually appealing.

Here are some examples of the conveyors in action that really showcase how fun they are to use:
