How to Automate Crafting

The Crafting Pipe gives you the possibility to automate crafting processes within your pipe network.

Setting the Recipe

  1. Place a Crafting Pipe in your system.
  2. Hold a Wrench and Right-Click the Crafting Pipe.
  3. In the GUI that opens, you will be able to arrange items in a 3x3 crafting grid.
  4. 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.
