I am sure many of you like me have been enjoying the new Logistics Pipes in your new FTB modpacks. Now that many of you have had a while to play with this mod I though it might be nice to see what interesting designs members of the community have come up with.
I'm not necessarily looking for whole logistics networks spanning the entirety of your bases, instead I think it would be interesting to see how people have used Logistics pipes to solve smaller logistical problems either within their main network or as part of an entirely independent network (with or without as much mod integration as you like so long as it has Logipipes in it). If you can provide screenshots that's great but please at least describe pipes or modules used and relevant configuration.
I will start proceedings with a small example I have to manage the MFR unifier.
This unifier is attached to my core logipipes network which is itself attached to my AE network (The connecting pipes to my my ME interfaces are just behind the minimap). The pipe on top of the unifier is a mark 2 chassis pipe with an item sink module and an extractor module (mark 3 - a bit overkill but I had one spare). To the right is a supplier pipe. There is also a basic logistics pipe that is connecting them. Its unnecessary I just forgot to take it out when I was refitting the area.
The item sink requests all IC2 rubber that gets produced by a bank of extractors that chew through the rubber wood from my MFR rubber farm. You can see some IC2 rubber inside the pipes if you look closely. They all land inside the unifier and the extractor module instantly pulls them back out again as MFR rubber down the default route which leads to my ME storage. The supplier pipe is configured to supply infinite amounts of dartcraft tears, blue slime balls and Electrical expansion lead that is a wither skeleton drop. Whenever any of those items wind up in my ME storage they get sucked out by the provider pipe on my ME interface and dropped straight into my unifier, where they become ghast tears, green slime balls and Thermal expansion lead. Helps to keep my ME storage nice and tidy and I like it.
So, please submit your own cool designs.
