Create a Mobile Sorting System with Minecart Copper Hoppers

Minecart Hoppers for Transport

The mod includes minecart versions of Copper Hoppers, allowing you to build filtering systems that move along rails. These work like regular Copper Hoppers but can travel to multiple sorting stations.

Setting Up Mobile Sorting

1. Craft a Copper Hopper Minecart and place it on rails

2. Open the minecart's inventory and add filter items just like a stationary hopper

3. Connect the rail line to multiple chests or sorting stations

4. As the minecart travels, it will pull matching items from containers along the route and deposit them at designated stops

Practical Uses

This is ideal for large farms or mining operations where you want to sort items as you collect them. Push items into the minecart at one location, and it automatically filters and delivers sorted stacks to different stations along the rail network.

Combine multiple minecarts with different filters on the same rail line for a fully automated distribution system.
