SimpleTransport
by JohnPattox
SimpleTransport lets players move items between inventories, machines and item destructors with extractors, pullers and conveyor belts, and it is a Fabric mod for 1.17 – 1.19.2.
What it does
Extractors and pullers take items out of a container or machine and push them on to the next block in a line. Each one accepts a filter, so only chosen item types move. An overflow-protected inserter variant stops a destination from taking more than it can hold, and a magnetic mode gathers nearby items into the transport network.
The mod needs SimpleTransport's companion library transportation-needs and Fabric API, and the server and every player must both run it. The Fabric builds cover eight release versions, and the latest file is 1.2.1 for 1.19.2, published on 2022-09-08. Snapshot builds have been published too. The code is open source and released under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, which places it in the public domain.
The author recommends Better Dropped Items for cleaner handling of loose items, and notes that REI can display the mod's recipes. Conveyor belts are used for moving items along a route, and the mod can move items between inventories, machines and destructors in the same network.
Key features
Filtered extractors
Extractors pull items out of a source block and can be set to move only selected item types.
Filtered pullers
Pullers collect items from the blocks they reach, using a filter to choose which items they take.
Overflow-protected inserter
The OPI inserter stops filling a destination once it is full, so items do not overflow onto the belt.
Magnetic mode
A magnetic setting makes the transport blocks gather nearby loose items into the network.

SimpleTransport is a mod for your transportation-needs. Move items from and to inventories, machines, or destructors. All by using conveyor-belts. I strongly advice using Better Dropped Items!! Use REI for the recipes. Requires the Fabric API
