Minecraft Automation
by TeddouX1
Minecraft Automation adds item pipes, fluid pipes and pressure-driven pumps for moving items and fluids between blocks without manual transfer.
What it does
Item pipes carry items from one container to another. Each pipe has a maximum pressure of 10 pressure units, and once the pressure in a line drops to 0 pu the pipe stops working. Two settings control the flow: the number of items moved per transfer and the cooldown, which sets how much time a pipe takes between transfers.
Item pumps push items through the pipes and set the pressure they induce. Fluid pipes and fluid pumps do the same for liquids, so a pump can draw from a lake or a water source and send the fluid through a connected tank. Arrows on the blocks show the direction of flow.
Minecraft Automation is a Fabric mod for version 1.20.4 and is needed on both client and server. It is open source under the MIT License and comes from the author TeddouX1.

What the author says
In this contraption, the items are going from the rightmost chest to the leftmost one.\ ⚠️ Mind the item pump that is used to "pull" the items from the rightmost chest. In this other contraption, the items from the rightmost chest are split in half between the two leftmost chests.
