Zephyr Hauler

Each hauler is a physical balloon that picks up a captured inventory block from the world and flies it to a chosen destination. Flight speed and handling change with the load, since the weight of a hauler is worked out from how many items sit in the inventory it has captured, and wind and weather push on the route. A hauler can be linked to a Zephyr Dock with a right-click on a compatible inventory block, then dispatched again without re-linking once it returns to a hub.

Routing runs through a Zephyr Controller, which monitors an entire hub network and tracks each dock as Free, Reserved, Occupied or Inaccessible so that balloons avoid collisions in the air. Players who build long item lines without hoppers or minecart tracks can use the mod for transport over mountains and across open terrain. Installing Patchouli adds a guide book to the game.
