How to Configure Filters and Monitor Throughput in Curvy Pipes

Setting Up Item and Fluid Filtering

Lines built with Curvy Pipes Mod can regulate logistical flow directly at inventory faces and containers:

• Access the inventory filtering settings on your connected item or fluid lines.
• Build custom filter lists to designate specifically which items or liquids are permitted to move through that section.
• Configure transfer behaviors to push or pull exact quantities instead of moving uncontrolled batches, ensuring balanced delivery across processing machines.

Optimizing Flow Capacity and Transparency

Curved lines simulate logistics flow dynamically based on network structure:

• Throughput Bottlenecks: System transfer capacity is calculated from the narrowest section in a connected network. Keep pipe dimensions uniform along critical paths to avoid unintentional throughput restrictions.
• Visualizing Contents: Right-click an item pipe while holding a block of glass. This makes the pipe transparent, providing real-time visual previews of items traveling through the curve.
• Long-Distance Routing: Transfers between distant endpoints continue uninterrupted through unloaded chunks, provided the connected machines at each end remain loaded.
