Transport module for BuildCraft
About this Mod
The transport submodule as provided by BuildCraft.
This submodule adds BuildCraft's pipe system - designed to be low-level, simple, and allow a high degree of flexibility and control over the flow of your items, liquids and energy (MJ/RF, depending on version).
The functionality of the pipe system includes, depending on version:
- being able to control the maximum flow rate of liquids and power,
- being able to route items by type and color tagging,
- being able to perform round-robin extraction and insertion,
- being able to use Gates to react to events and control pipe behaviour,
- being able to use facades, different types of stones, and pipe staining for decorative and compact building purposes.
Note that the BuildCraft project contains the complete mod in single-JAR format - but not all versions are available in this format; likewise, not all versions are available in this multi-JAR submodule format.
Licensing information is provided in the full version's description above.
