Hopper Plus FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I craft my first hopper upgrade?
Start with a Copper Hopper since it requires the fewest materials and teaches you filtering basics. Check the crafting recipe in your crafting menu or JEI/NEI to see what you need—each hopper tier uses its namesake material plus a regular hopper as the base.
Can I connect a Warp Hopper to multiple destinations?
Yes, one Warp Hopper can send items to many different receivers at the same time. Use the Warp Linker to connect your sender to each receiver individually, and items will distribute across all connected hoppers.
Why isn't my Copper Hopper picking up the items I want?
Make sure you placed the exact items in the filter slots using the Hopper Configurator tool—the hopper will only pick up those specific blocks and nothing else. If you placed similar-looking items (like different wood types), double-check that they match what's on the ground.
Do Warp Hopper connections save if I close the world?
Yes, all your Warp Hopper connections are saved automatically and will still work when you reload your world.
What's the difference between Diamond and Emerald hoppers?
Both pick up dropped items from a distance, but the Emerald Hopper has a slightly larger pickup range than the Diamond version. Choose based on how far away you need items collected.
Can I use the Void Hopper to delete specific items only?
No, the Void Hopper destroys everything that falls into it—it's designed to clean up all junk automatically. If you need selective deletion, use a Copper Hopper to filter out what you want to keep instead.
Does the Netherite Hopper work in lava and fire?
Yes, the Netherite Hopper is fireproof and lava-proof, so it continues operating at full speed even when placed in or exposed to those blocks.
How do I remove a Warp Hopper connection?
Hold Shift and right-click the Warp Hopper with the Warp Linker to delete its connection. You'll need to re-link it if you want to connect it to a different hopper.
Can I use hoppers from this mod with other mods' pipe systems?
These hoppers work like vanilla hoppers for basic item movement, so they're compatible with most mods, but the special features (teleporting, filtering, void deletion) only work within the Hopper Plus system.
Why is my Golden Hopper not moving items faster?
The Golden Hopper moves items twice as fast, but it still needs a valid destination—make sure it's connected to a chest, another hopper, or container below it, or items will back up and stop moving.
