How to Automate Crafting
The Crafting Pipe gives you the possibility to automate crafting processes within your pipe network.
Setting the Recipe
- Place a Crafting Pipe in your system.
- Hold a Wrench and Right-Click the Crafting Pipe.
- In the GUI that opens, you will be able to arrange items in a 3x3 crafting grid.
- Define the crafting recipe: Place the exact recipe you want the pipe to craft inside the grid.
How it works
Once the recipe is defined:
- All items going into this Crafting Pipe will be temporarily cached inside it.
- As soon as enough ingredients are stored inside to fulfill the recipe, the result item is automatically crafted.
- The newly crafted item will then be sent out through the pipe's output direction.
Viewing Cache & Output Direction
While inside the Wrench GUI of the Crafting Pipe, you can also:
- See the currently cached items waiting inside the pipe to be used.
- Define the output direction where the crafted items will go.
