Hopper
by quat
Hopper, a Forge mod for Minecraft 1.4.7, adds hopper blocks that move items between chests and other containers.
What it does
A hopper pulls items from the container on its top face and from items lying on the ground above it, then deposits them into the container it points at. Players craft it from a chest and five iron, and a hopper placed upside down can feed items into a furnace's fuel slot. The mod also adds a block of redstone that can be pushed by pistons and acts as a power source, and an item form of redstone dust that can be stored.
Hopper is a Forge build for 1.4.7 only, released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only and open source. Installation covers the server and each player's game. The project publishes its source code and an issue tracker, and the single file is dated 2022-08-01.
