Cargo Pipes (WIP)
Instructions on how to use Cargo Pipes
This is a guide on how to use this mod.

Once you subscribe to this mod, you want to open the main game menu using the Play option (not the resume option) from the main game launcher.

You want to then select Mods in the main menu, find the mod name Cargo Pipes and verify it is selected.

You do not need to change the two default values in Settings, though you can look at them. The default setting values are shown here:

Once you verify the mod is selected, you are ready to load your game .. for me that is in Single Player and select the game and load it.

Once in the game, press C to enter the crafting menu and Cargo Pipes has it's own Category .. a Purple Pipe on the right of the Crafting screen:

The items you can craft are:

Cargo Pipe IN/OUT
Cargo Pipe Indicator
Cargo Pipe Storage
Cargo Pipe

When placing EITHER the IN/OUT item or the Pipe item, you want to use the Right Click option and pick the appropriate item to place. Specifically for in/out you have a Small item with 3 Conveyor spots and one Panel or a larger one with 4 Conveyor Spots and 4 panels:

To use the in/out item, the key point to understand is that you pick the option for the item that is the conveyor part. So if you want to input Rods into the Cargo Pipe system, you will pick the in/out object, Right Click and pick the 'IN' option, then use an Intake Conveyor and hook it up. Select Change Recipe and pick Rods.

Next add a Cargo Pipe and it will show a Blue gas in the pipe. Here are the screenshot:

One thing to note is that you can connect to the base of the In/Out as well as they don't need a foundation block to make the pipes under the floor. That may not be clear. Also you can connect to the top of the indicator as well even though there is no port marking there. Both the in/out and indicator can sit inline so the pipe can pass though them which is great when building multiple layers vertically.

Great write-up. thanks for taking the time
