[0.12.17]Clean Pipes 0.0.4 - Decide how pipes connect!

Clean Pipes

Updated for version 0.12.17 - Thanks to Divran
Get it here!

This mod allows you to build pipes which connect exactly as you want them to.
Simply craft a (one or two-sided) placer, place them with the arrow pointing towards other pipes and the pipes will connect.
See the GIF below for how it works.

Many thanks to Rseding91 for modifying it to work with blueprints.

Most of the mod actually allow 20/40/80+ sometimes pump. Can you make a version with 20/40/80 capactity ? You can see Yuoki mod and dytech one for the recipe they use and match them.

I copied the image location and pasted it into my address bar and was politely told by google:

Ah, it's working now, sorry about that!

This is awesome. I'll put a link in from the StraightPipes thread to this mod as this is much more useful. Thank you

A few things:

• 1. The pipes don't place as owned by the player and so show up red on the minimap
• 2. When placing and harvesting the 2 sided connection pipes it gives a one sided connection pipe back - not so much a bug but just annoying having to keep re-crafting 2 sided pipes
• 3. Because all the different types of connections are different pipe entities they don't work with blueprints (always reports missing items)

For 1: That can be fixed by setting the force when using createentity in your control.lua script (unless it was intended)

For 2: You should be able to duplicate your existing pipe entities and have a second set that harvests to the double sided pipes

For 3: Blueprints only work if you've done #1 - blueprints don't let you create them out of non-player placed items apparently. But, you could also make a new crafting category tab with all the different styles of connecting pipe available to craft from the one-sided connection pipe item. That way you could have them available in your logistics network using auto-crafting and could blueprint copy-paste an existing pipe setup.

Having them in a different recipe category would keep them from cluttering up the existing recipe category that a normal player would use. You could also put the item description as "Pipe custom connections: N/S/E/W" while keeping the entity name the same (making them distinguishable from each other) so when it's placed in the world via your control.lua script or a robot it still reads "Clean pipe" for the name (entities in-world have no item description attached).

I actually went ahead and did everything mentioned above: https://www.dropbox.com/s/ti48g9qpdnv9i ... nPipes.zip

Feel free to use it if you like I know I will.

Love this mod

One question though, would it be possible to do a "clean corner"?

[ThaPear]

That's already possible, you simply place the clean pipes like this:

Place 1, then 2, then remove 2.

[t4nk3r4lyf]

Ah ok, I'll give that a go. Thanks

*edit* just rewatched the opening gif, feeling like a scrub
Is the corner also possible with pipe to ground?
Pipe to ground> single piece corner > pipe to ground?

[ThaPear]

Yeah, once a piece of clean pipes is connected, the connections it has will behave like normal pipes.

Hello everyone.

This is one of the few mods I use and I wanted to keep playing my single-player pre-0.11 game with it. So I fixed it to load on this new version.

It most likely won't work on multiplayer. I'm a noob at modding and don't really know what I'm doing.

Here it is.

And Thanks for making this mod

[AlphaRaptor]

AWESOME MOD
Thats what we need in MP

Its Annoying that you need to build every pipe with 1 Empty Hole between another
Nice Mod

[ThaPear]

Updated for version 0.11.6
That sums it up.
Untested in multiplayer.
