Pipe Connector

A tool that places pipes automatically along a selected route, with the option to set the depth. Useful for building organized networks without placing each pipe manually

Description

What is the best part of modded Minecraft? Yes, that's objectively correct, it's to connect pipes between machines, whether it be Energy Pipes, Item Pipes or even Fluid Pipes. However, what is the worse part of modded Minecraft?

 

ITS TO DIG THE BLOCKS TO PLACE THOSE PIPES AND THEN FILL THEM BACK UP SO THE PIPES WON'T BE IN YOUR WAY.       

This mod tries to rectify that.

How does it work?

 

  • Hold the Pipe Connector in your hand and Shift + Mouse wheel to set the depth you want the Pipe to go to.
  • Hold a pipe in your off-hand and the Pipe Connector in your main hand, and Shift + Right-Click a block to set node position (up to 8 by default)
  • Shift + Right click the air to open the GUI to place the pipes or reset the positions.
  • Shift + Right Click on a block to remove it's positions from the list of nodes 

Supported Pipes:

From Minecraft version 1.21.1 and above:

 

Modpack makers can support additional pipes via tags.

  • To support additional types, add them as tags in placeable_items.json and pipe_block.json
  • To set blocks to be voided instead of broken, add them to voidable_blocks.json) - Adding blocks to to this will also cause the connection path to go around those blocks, instead of a through them, when using the A* Pathfinding.
  • To set blocks that the Pipe Connector will not be able to break add them to unbreakable_blocks.json
