PipezRetriever
by Lumengrid89
PipezRetriever, a NeoForge addon for Pipez, adds Retrieve Mode pipes that pull items, fluids and energy out of connected inventories instead of pushing them in.
What it does
The addon introduces a Retrieve Mode for pipes in Pipez. Where a standard pipe pushes its contents from a source into connected destinations, a pipe in Retrieve Mode reverses the direction and pulls items, fluids or energy from the connected inventories. Extract Mode stays the default, and an Extract/Retrieve button at the top left of the pipe configuration screen switches between the two.
The addon covers Item Pipes, Fluid Pipes, Energy Pipes and Universal Pipes. Retrieve mode works with the existing Pipez configuration options, so filters and other settings carry over. Gas Pipes need separate retrieve mode support, and that support is listed as required for Gas Pipes, which depend on Mekanism. The mod needs Pipez to run as its base.
Files are published for NeoForge, for Minecraft 1.21.1, 26.1.2, 26.2 and 26.3, with 0.2.0 for 26.3 as the latest file. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too. The mod is released under the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license and is not open source.
