Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]
Don't know if this was asked before , but can't the sorting tubes default state be changed to all colors "off" instead of "on" after placing it. It rarely happens that one uses all channels and always have to switch off all the unused ones. Would be easier if all is off by default and just toggle the ones in use on.
Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]
I like that idea of the sort pipes have the sides default as "off", it would also help when I set up networks, since I tend to have the input path turned off to prevent back-flow.

Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]
Hi, noticed something which has been around for awhile, Deployers, did a test and it resulted in the following:-
Deployer placed with blinky to trigger, place 2 different items in the deployer, (I used dirt and granite), dirt being in the first block and granite in the second. The deployer will place the dirt (As expected) in front of it, yet on the next cycle it will place the granite 1 node out if it is an air block (Won't if not)
As far as I believe the deployer should only manipulate the node in front of it, IE deploy if Air, Water_Flowing, or Lava_Flowing

Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]
That's deliberate behavior, primarily for things like the default farming mod. An example there is a deployer facing upward, with hoed, wet soil on top of it, and loaded with cotton or wheat seeds (or receiving them from a tube). It'll place the seeds on top of the hoed soil when triggered.

Is there a way to make the Mese Filters/Injectors run with out hitting a button.

If you don't need precision, set a mesecons blinky plant next to the Filter.
If that's too slow, and you still don't need precision control, build a simple mesecons oscillator using a delayer and a NOT gate, and feed the output to the Filter.
Otherwise, use something like a LuaController to generate your signals.

Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]
I tend to put a Mescons (detector) pipe on the output side of a filter, so I just hit it once to kick start the machine and it triggers itself until the connected chest is empty, and for such a simple set up, it works very fast and is resource friendly while being as compact as possible.

Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]
I have a cave im digging and collecting items from down -152 unitw. I set up a chest with a itemwise injector connected to a transport tube. and transporting it to a chest on the surface. I tried it on the surface and it worked fine but when i try it from the cave, all the items fall on the ground out of the tube and dont get transported.

Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]
Teleporting tubes are much more reliable for that. I routinely send quarry output to my house 3000 nodes away with teleport tubes.
Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]
Have you tried the latest version of pipeworks? This bug should have been fixed in it.DoyleChris wrote:I have a cave im digging and collecting items from down -152 unitw.

Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]
Well i went to the Github and downloaded the latest version from here and installed it and i am still running into the same problrm.
I checked the debug file and it dosent show any errors for the pipeworks.
I have attached a screen shot of the items falling on the ground.
Your going to ask what version and everything so, Minetest i am running 0.4.12.
Change log in pipeworks says 2013-01-13

Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]
Did you right click both the receiving and sending teleport tube to give them the same channel name?

Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]

Sorry, not sure what you mean by that.DoyleChris wrote:Is it a problem if there going over the 0 locations 0,0,0.
Is this on a server, perhaps someone can come on and take a look?

Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]
No its not a server, its a singleplayer mode.
The TBM Mod im using said not to run it across the 0,0,0 location, so i was wondering about the teleport tube.
ill get a few pictures to show.

Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]
Is there a way to get a sort tube to connect to chests next to each other.
I have 2 gold chest sitting next to each other, and i want one for lumps and the other for other stuff.
I have a mine deep down and using a teleport tube to bring them to my base then i want to sort them.
But when i put tubes next to each other they connect.
Anyway to keep them from connecting.

Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]
I'm not quite sure what the problem with the setup is, but here is how i would do that:
[ ] = [ ]
|
|
[ ] == chest
= == sorting tube
| == tube
You set the sorting tube to send lumps into one chest and everything else into the other.

Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]
Well all my chests are stacked on top and next to each other.
@@@ @=chest
@@@
So should i space them out like this.
@#@#@ @=chest
#@#@# #=space

Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]
Cobblestone to last box on bottom.
All lumps to first box on top.
1. So how would you route that to get to the chest listed above.
2. The very first blue box from the injector, is that used at all.
3. With red, blue and green, yellow next to each other which one do you use to move it to the next sort.

It sounds like perhaps you don't know how sorting tubes work at all? Have you read this: https://github.com/VanessaE/pipeworks/w ... ting-tubesDoyleChris wrote:Cobblestone to last box on bottom.

Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]
Well i did read that many times.
And if you where to look at the picture, then the setup page you would see.
1. Injector is on the read section, then the chests are on the white and blue.
2. Then in the setup window you have a door and red stone going to red. And cactus going to white which is shutoff.
So im asuming but the pictures the door and redstone need to go towards the injector.

Re: [Mod] Pipeworks [20131128] [pipeworks]
Alright, I'll explain using my screenshot above, and your requirement "Cobblestone to last box on bottom. All lumps to first box on top."
What I find best is to always turn off all the sorting tube's directions as a start.
So once all that is done, to send lumps to the first box on top (I assume by 'first' you mean closest to the injector), you would add lumps to the green box for the first tube on the bottom and turn it "on", then add lumps to the white box for the first tube on the top and turn it "on".
To send cobble all the way to the last chest on the bottom, make sure all the sorting tubes on the bottom row have their red box set to "on", except the last one. The last one you put cobble in the white box, and turn it "on".
Make more sense now? It seems really complicated but once you get the hang of it its actually quite simple.
