Flow Control
This mod has two main features: specific rotatable pipe sections and valves.
Specific Rotatable Pipe Seconds
Using these three new pipe sections you can build almost any pipe layout without worrying about unwanted connections. Each pipe is crafted from one normal pipe, and when mined drops a normal pipe.
- Elbow
- T-Junction
- Straight
Valves
This mod includes three valves from the Valves mod.
- One way valve: Only allows flow in one direction, when the input fluid level is higher than the output fluid level.
- Overflow valve: Only allows flow in one direction when the input is higher than 80% full.
- Top up valve: Only allows flow in one direction when the output is higher than 50% full.
These thresholds are also customizable with easy shortcuts (Numpad +/-
) with the defaults configurable in the map settings.
Settings
- New subgroup for pipe items (enabled by default): Moves pipes, pumps and valves to a new line in the crafting menu
- Picked up pipes become base pipes (enabled by default): When picking up T-Junction, elbow or straight pipes, it reverts back to normal pipes.
