Create Aeronautics: Encased Fluid Pipes
by EvanTrow
With Create Aeronautics: Encased Fluid Pipes, Create fluid pipes can run through an airship hull inside a dye-colored hot air envelope without breaking the sealed balloon volume.
What it does
The mod introduces wrapped fluid pipe blocks for Create Aeronautics, the fluid pipe counterpart of the envelope-wrapped shaft blocks already in the addon. A wrapped pipe counts as airtight balloon volume, so the hot air stays sealed where the pipe passes through the envelope. Each block is crafted from a fluid pipe and the matching colored envelope block.
Players recolor a wrapped pipe in place by right-clicking it with any dye item, and a sneak plus wrench click strips only the envelope casing, returning it to the inventory as a plain pipe. Envelope break, place and hit sounds match the existing envelope blocks, and the wrapped pipes also bounce a landing player like those blocks do.
The mod requires Create and Create Aeronautics. It runs on NeoForge only, with files for 1.21.1 – 1.21.11 and 1.0.7 for 1.21.11 as the latest build, and the server and every player need it. The code is open source under the MIT License.
