[Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]

[Comp52]

yes, I'm really looking forward to someone making the pipes transport water and maybe items(water first, tho)

[qwrwed]

Pipes can sort of already transport items in technic, RealBadAngel is working on it.

[VanessaE]

Right, in technic, you can use Pipeworks' pneumatic tubes to transport items to/from devices that support that function. I've played around with it on someone else's server, and it seemed to work rather well.

RealBadAngel also has some test code that'll calculate liquid routing and transport through the steel pipes, but that code doesn't do anything useful to the end user yet.

Neither piece of code has been submitted as a patch for Pipeworks, however.

Hint, hint, RBA. :-)

[guilleelcapoextra]

this is something that is said that just as industrial machines or similar

[mauvebic]

my (minimal, experimental) version - pipes, intakes and outlets work for moving water. Will add support for other (all?) liquids, disabled the devices that dont yet work either.

[VanessaE]

Thanks to Mauvebic's work, Pipeworks now has basic support for moving water! See the first post for details.

2013-01-13: Items can now flow from between chests and furnaces via the pneumatic tubes!

To do this, I added Nore's item transport mod and integrated it into pipeworks. Thanks to Nore and RealBadAngel for the code. Note that this code addition has to redefine the default chests and furnaces (see compat.lua) in order to add some new group definitions so that tubes can appear to connect to these objects.

[jojoa1997]

When you use the item flow the item does not go into the other chest

[Nore]

There is a new version, in which it should be fixed.

VanessaE did you add the fix

It looks like the fix has not been added yet.

Moreover, what are side textures for furnaces for? You can only insert items in them from top (get into the cooking slot) or bottom (get into the fuel slot).

[VanessaE]

The images were more of a test, pending my working more with it :-)

Can pull the latest pipeworks and make your update against that so I don't have to re-integrate it? Thanks. :-)

[jojoa1997]

Does this transport lava yet.

[Nore]

I sent a pull request for the last version.

VanessaE, could you add a function that creates tubes with name and textures in input? (so we could create other tubes with more functionnalities)

[jojoa1997]

What would be nice is a node that allows you to send them in different directions. Like mesecons microcontrollers.

[VanessaE]

Nore: thanks! merged, and got rid of that furnace texture also. Regarding furnace top/bottom, I think it would be better if you used bottom (fuel) and sides (item to cook), as I've kinda designated the top of the furnace as a place to put a flue (some time or another, I'd like to add smoke particles to it when it's active).

[VanessaE]

jojoa: no, it doesn't handle any liquids other than water, at present. Hopefully soon it will.

[Spots]

VanessaE does the Transport filter object have an on and off i can only get it to work if i stand there and punch it time after time , also for some reason when i start the water transport the Outlet spigot turns when the water hits it and stops the flow

[VanessaE]

I just pushed an update to fix the spigots. Sorry about that.

As for the filter block, that's Nore's department. :-)

[Spots]

np and thanks tons for the mod i'm loving it

[jojoa1997]

Nore could you also add pipes going to furnaces so i can transport stuff to the furnace.

i didnt have that problem just trying to get the stuff to transport to a chest is the only problem i have now as i said before i have to keep punching it to move one item at a time

I know but having ores being able to go in a furnace is also nice. Especially when you are mining industrious style.

There is that already: from top to put items in cooking slot, from bottom to put them in fuel slot.

You can use mesecons, it will do the same as punching when receiving a mesecons signal.

[Spots]

but , but ....i dont use mesecons ....<hangs head in shame>

also is there a craft for the filter or just in creative mod <---reason for edit

[RealBadAngel]

thx Nore for kickin my butt ;)
update for tubed items coming shortly

[Spots]

Angel you rock i love everything you and VanessaE do lol also just because i thought the textures for the filter ...well lacked a little bit i messed around and did this

[Spots]

[jojoa1997]

VanessaE I can make the pie works mod filter automatic using an ABM but I don't know how to set it on and off
