Rustic Pipes is a no bloat, simple and performant all-round logistic mod designed for use in big modpacks.

When designing this mod I had two defining factors in mind; keeping it simple and making it immersive. Combing the two you may see I chose to avoid using GUI's making most logistic/tech mods seem complicated and instead opted for visual indications. Power cords lightning up when power is transferring in them, read-outs by clicking connection points instead of having to carry around a multi-meter, little knobs illuminating on pipe motors and so on.

Main Features:

• Used FE (Forge Energy) making it compatible with most other energy dependent mods.
• Transfers items from one container to another container, slow and passively without the need of FE 
• Transfer fluids from one place to another passively at a fixed but configurable rate
• Transfer energy from one place to another through power cords
• Ability to boost item transfer by using tiered pipe motors that require increasing amounts of FE 
• Power cords, machines, fluid tanks, fluid pipes all have visual indicators of their contents.
• Integration with most popular power generation mods like IC2, Nuclearcraft and much more!
• Nuclearcraft radiation capability for fluid pipes & tanks!
• Fully configurable language files
• Having enough fluid-tanks in inventory quick-places a whole tank-fluid layer instead of just one block
• Tested without compatibility issues in a RLCraft Dregora environment.

Configurability:

• Lots of different configurable options for all items within the mod, recipes, transfer rates, etc.
• Fluid highly configurable with Nuclearcraft configurability, flow rate etc.

Future plans:

• Adding sound to machines, fluid and item pipes
