Frequently asked questions

How do I craft a Wooden Hopper?
Place five Planks in a pattern around one Chest in the crafting grid (the Chest goes in the center). You'll unlock the recipe in your recipe book once you collect a Chest.
Why is my Wooden Hopper so slow?
Wooden Hoppers operate at half the speed of vanilla hoppers by default (every 16 ticks instead of 8). You can adjust the `woodenHopperCooldown` config option to make it faster or slower depending on your needs.
Can I make a Wooden Hopper push-only?
Yes, disable the `woodenHopperPullItemsFromInventoriesEnabled` and `woodenHopperPullItemsFromWorldEnabled` config options. This creates a hopper that only pushes items downward without pulling from above.
How many items can a Wooden Hopper hold?
A Wooden Hopper has only one slot, so it can hold a maximum of one stack of items at a time.
Can Wooden Hoppers pull from other Wooden Hoppers?
Yes, if the `woodenHopperPullItemsFromInventoriesEnabled` config is enabled (the default), a Wooden Hopper can pull items from inventories above it, including other Wooden Hoppers.
Will a Wooden Hopper pick up items lying on the ground?
Only if `woodenHopperPullItemsFromWorldEnabled` is set to true in the config (the default). When disabled, the Wooden Hopper won't collect item entities from above it.
Can I use Wooden Hoppers to make an item sorter?
Yes, you can chain multiple Wooden Hoppers with comparators and redstone to create a sorting system, though the single-slot design means you'll need more hoppers than a vanilla hopper setup.
Does disabling pulling affect pushing items out?
No, the `woodenHopperPullItemsFromInventoriesEnabled` config only controls pulling from inventories above—it has no effect on the pushing mechanism downward.
What's the difference between the two pulling config options?
`woodenHopperPullItemsFromWorldEnabled` controls picking up item entities (dropped items), while `woodenHopperPullItemsFromInventoriesEnabled` controls pulling from containers and other hoppers above.
Can I make Wooden Hoppers as fast as vanilla hoppers?
Yes, set the `woodenHopperCooldown` config option to 8 (the same value as vanilla hoppers) to make them operate at the same speed.
