Pipes are blocks that allows you to transport liquids and gases, such as Water, Sewage, and Smog.

Currently, there are 3 types of Pipes: Copper Pipe, Iron Pipe and Steel Pipe.

Extra info[edit | edit source]

Smog cannot be contained and will pollute around the exhaust point at the surface level of the world even if buried underground.

Be careful when activating a Water Pump that is hooked up to water. The water spray can create water blocks and cause issues.

You can transport Water through Pipes by using a Water Pump. Sewage can be transported and turned back into Water via the Waste Filter.

If you do not use your tables after x amount of time, the area around the exhaust point will return to a pollution free area.

Troubleshooting[edit | edit source]

Pipes require a Water Pump to initiate flow into the pipe system. You should have 1 or more pipes touching a water block and a Water Pump nearby that connect to that pipe.

Each pipeline is its own system when determining water requirements. This can be broken up by adding other pumps in the pipeline. This information is useful when trying to make a pipeline for multiple uses, such as providing water to a machine and dump water on a Waterwheel or other application within "one" pipeline.

If the pipeline system is trying to supply water to a machine, such as a Steam Engine, the system must NOT have an open portion of the pipe spewing water. If you need this, it is advised to place a pump on each side of the water opening.

Pipes can supply water over a large distance with a Water Pump

Creating a pipeline consisting of different Pipe types will stop that pipeline from working. It has to consist of one type only. (For example; mixing copper pipes and iron pipes wont work)

Example of use[edit | edit source]

Connection at work tables
Exhaust point

History[edit | edit source]

Beta 8.0.0 introduced new Objects that allow you to transport Water and Sewage. Also, allowing you to convert Sewage back to Water.
Beta 7.2.x the Pipes sole purpose is to transport Smog.
