I'm playing Factorio and I think to myself, "Man it'd be really neat if <idea> was already a mod" and then I go check the mod portal and IT IS! Hahahaha perfect!
Sorry I don't have anything important to say I just wanted to thank you for this.
always happy to hear from yet another satisfied customer, this was a fun collaboration to do and on my own worlds it has saved my skin a few times already.
Edit: Nevermind, I guess "pipes" was added by another mod of mine? I'm not sure which, but probably Factorio+.
Heads up if you set the subgroup in item.lua to pipes instead of energy-pipe-distribution then it'll categorize your elevated pipes alongside the other pipes and fluid stuff https://i.imgur.com/lXlB1ms.png
