Create Refuelling Hose

Create Refuelling Hose is a Minecraft mod designed to add a more physical and immersive way of transferring fluids, particularly for large Create builds, vehicles and airships.

Instead of fluids simply moving invisibly between machines, Create Refuelling Hose gives you a deployable hose reel with a physical hose and pickup nozzle that can be carried, thrown and positioned where you need it.

Features

• Pump Reel – A full industrial hose reel that acts as the heart of the system.
• Deployable Hose – Extend and retract a long physical hose from the reel.
• Pickup Nozzle – Carry or throw the end of the hose into a pool or other location.
• Fluid Collection – Place the pickup nozzle into a fluid source to siphon fluid through the hose.
• Pool Draining – Fluid pools are progressively drained rather than simply providing infinite fluid from a single source block.
• Bidirectional Fluid Transfer – Reverse the flow and pump stored fluid back through the hose into the world.
• Tank & Pipe Connections – Connect the rear of the reel to fluid storage or a Create fluid pipe network.
• Three-Stage Hose Control – Choose between Retract, Off and Extend.
• Three-Stage Fluid Control – Choose between Fill, Off and Drain independently from the hose controls.
• Handheld Control Panel – Link a portable controller to your Pump Reel and operate it remotely.
• Wall-Mounted Controller – Mount the handheld controller onto a wall for a permanent control station, then pick it back up when needed.
• Pump Reel Controls – Access the control interface directly from the reel itself.
• Create Wrench Support – Machinery can be picked back up using a Create Wrench.
• Survival Crafting – Components have crafting recipes using materials and machinery parts that fit naturally alongside Create.

How it works

Place a Pump Reel and connect its rear fluid port to your storage tank or fluid pipe system. Deploy the hose and take the pickup nozzle to the fluid you want to collect.

Set the hose control to Extend to pay out more hose, Off to hold its current length, or Retract to wind it back onto the reel.

Fluid movement is controlled separately:

Fill
World → Pickup Nozzle → Hose → Pump Reel → Tank

Off
Stops fluid transfer while leaving the hose deployed.

Drain
Tank → Pump Reel → Hose → Pickup Nozzle → World

This allows the same hose to both collect and discharge fluids.

When you're finished, set the reel to Retract. The hose winds back toward the machine and the pickup nozzle docks back into the reel.

Remote Control

The Pump Control Panel can be linked to a Pump Reel and carried with you, allowing you to control both hose movement and fluid direction remotely.

The controller can also be mounted onto a wall to create a permanent control station. It retains its connection to the linked reel and can later be removed and carried again.

Designed for Create

Create Refuelling Hose is intended to feel at home alongside Create's industrial machinery and fluid systems, while giving fluid handling a much more physical presence in the world.

It is particularly suited to large factories, mobile machinery and airship refuelling setups, where being able to lower a long hose to a fluid source and pump it aboard provides a much more immersive alternative to conventional fluid transfer.
