Logistics & Automation
13 quests, with the items each asks for and where they come from in FTB StoneBlock 4.
- Quantum Entangloporter
The Quantum Entangloporter can transfer items, energy, gases, and liquids wirelessly. Once placed, you can right click to open up the interface. Inside, you can set specific frequencies, allowing you to link up to your other Entangloporters for wireless transmission. The Entangloporters have a buffer, so it can store a small amount of power, gases, etc. You'll want to set the sides up properly to determine what goes in and out of the block, especially if you are using these to transfer gases!
Asks for:Quantum Entangloporter
- Pipez
The Pipez mod adds several useful pipes for transferring items, fluids, power, or gases. You can even use the Universal Pipes to condense everything down into one pipe. To set a pipe to extract, you'll need to Sneak + Right-click a Pipe Wrench on the end of the pipe that is connected to the block you want to extract from. Once done, you can upgrade the pipe using a Pipe Upgrade to make it faster, allow for filters, and more! Note: Pipes require the Machine Block World Engine Upgrade to craft.
Asks for:Advanced Pipe Upgrade,
Basic Pipe Upgrade,
Energy Pipe,
Fluid Pipe,
Gas Pipe,
Improved Pipe Upgrade
- XNet
XNET is a logistics mod that allows you to set up to 8 channel types (energy, item, fluid, gas, chemicals, and more) on a single connection network. Machines and storage devices can then be connected and managed all on a single network, taking up very little space and without the need for messy cables everywhere. To get started you’ll need some power (FE), a Controller and some Connectors. Note: The Controller requires the Machine Block and Ender Cell World Engine Upgrades to craft.
Asks for:Controller
- Create Item Options
Mechanical Belts can be used to create conveyor-like systems to transfer items and/or Rotational Force. Create machines will automatically interact with items on Belts if they are able to.
Asks for:Andesite Funnel,
Andesite Tunnel,
Mechanical Belt,
Brass Funnel,
Brass Tunnel,
Chute
- Mekanism Pipes
Mekanism offers some of the best logistics cables and pipes in the pack! These items can be upgraded in the world, and also have an internal buffer. To configure these pipes and cables, it is best to use the Configurator. This is Mekanism's wrench, which also comes with several useful features.
Asks for:Basic Logistical Transporter,
Basic Mechanical Pipe,
Basic Pressurized Tube,
Basic Universal Cable,
Configurator
- EnderIO Conduits
For modded veterans, EnderIO held great memories due to its amazing pipes, called Conduits. These Conduits are highly configurable, and can even store multiple conduits in the same block space. If you don't like the look of the cables, you can also slap on a Facade to cover them up! Configuring them is made easy using the Yeta Wrench. If any pipe is hidden beneath a Facade, holding the wrench in your hand will uncover them for easy configuration.
Asks for:Conduit Bundle,
Yeta Wrench
- Tesseract
The Tesseract is a block that can wirelessly transfer energy, items, and fluids. This can all be done using networks that can be configured to be private or public. It also has a new crafting recipe just like the old days! Note: To craft the frame, it requires the Machine Block and Ender Cell World Engine Upgrades.
Asks for:Tesseract
- Modular Routers (They Can Do Anything)
When it comes to logistics, Modular Routers can do it all. This mod comes with tons of useful features, like Auto-Clicking, Block Breaking, and more! All of these features are done within the main block, the Modular Router. To give it a function, it needs a Module to tell it what to do. These Modules can be configured and upgraded using Augments. Note: Modular Routers require the Fortron Infused Block World Engine Upgrade to craft.
Asks for:Activator Module,
Breaker Module,
Distributor Module,
Energy Distributor Module,
Fluid Module Mk1,
Modular Router
- Blockbreakert1
Whether you need to break, place, or even swap out blocks in the world, Just Dire Things has a machine for it. These machines are easy to use and configure within their interfaces.
Asks for:Simple Block Breaker,
Simple Block Placer,
Simple Clicker,
Simple Dropper,
Simple Fluid Collector,
Simple Fluid Placer
- LaserIO
LaserIO allows you to transfer pretty much everything using LASERS! To get started, you'll need some Laser Nodes and a Laser Wrench to connect them. These are the main blocks of the mod, which allows lasers to directly interact with blocks they are attached to. To learn how to set them up, check the next page! Note: Logic Chips require the Fortron Infused Block World Engine Upgrade to be crafted. To set up how Lasers will interact with the block, you'll need to install Cards to specify what you'd like them to do. These cards are highly configurable. For example, Item Cards can be used to pull or push items from separate inventories, and can be filtered for precise automation. When opening up the interface for a Laser Node, you'll have a tab for every face of the node. This determines the side that the Card works on. Think of the Card as essentially the "settings file" for that face. The cards can also be upgraded to increase the speed at which it interacts with other blocks, allowing for extremely fast speeds for automation. They can also be filtered and set to specific channels. You're not always going to have straight lasers from each Laser Node. That's where Laser Connectors come in!
Asks for:Chemical Card,
Energy Card,
Fluid Card,
Item Card,
Redstone Card,
Laser Connector
- Oritech Pipes
Oritech comes with several basic Pipes just for this! And of course, you'll need some way to configure the pipes, which is where the Wrench comes in. Right-clicking on a Pipe with an empty hand will set the pipe to extract! Using the Wrench on the end of a Pipes will disconnect the Pipe from whatever it is attached to. To reconnect it, use the Wrench on the middle of the Pipe. Sneak+using the Wrench on a Pipe will insta-break it. Pipes Throughputs: - Item Pipes: 8 items per 5 Ticks - Fluid Pipes: 500mb per 3 Ticks - Energy Pipes: 10k RF per 1 Tick.
Asks for:Energy Pipe,
Fluid Pipe,
Opaque Item Pipe,
Pipe Wrench

Classic Pipes brings back that original Buildcraft feel with their easy to craft and use pipes. The basic wooden pipes can be used to transport items and fluids. The Copper versions are used to extract items or fluids when given redstone power. There are also several different tiers of pipes that do different things, so check them out! Note: When these pipes overflow, they will lag the world. Make sure to create an overflow system!
