Vibrant Fluid Logistics Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do colored pipes work the same as regular Create pipes?
Yes, colored pipes have identical mechanics to standard Create fluid pipes—they transfer fluids at the same rate and follow the same connection rules. The color is purely for organization and visual distinction.
Can I mix different colored pipes in the same network?
Yes, fluids flow freely between different colored pipes without restriction. You can connect any color to any other color; the colors are just visual markers to help you organize separate logical networks.
How do I craft colored fluid tanks?
Colored tanks are crafted using the same recipe as standard Create fluid tanks, but with a dye of your chosen color added to the recipe. Check the mod's recipe book or JEI for the exact ingredient layout.
Will this mod work with other Create addons?
Yes, Vibrant Fluid Logistics is designed to extend Create and works alongside other Create mods. It's specifically compatible with Colorful Depot and Dye Depot if you want even more color palette options.
Do colored smart pipes have the same filtering as regular smart pipes?
Yes, colored smart pipes retain all the filtering and redstone control features of standard Create smart pipes—only the appearance changes based on the dye color.
Can I change a pipe's color after placing it?
No, you must craft and place a new pipe of the desired color. There is no recoloring mechanic for already-placed pipes.
Do colored pumps and spouts work differently than regular ones?
Colored pumps and spouts function identically to their standard Create counterparts; they only differ in appearance to match your chosen color scheme.
What happens if I use colored pipes with non-Create mods that add fluids?
Colored pipes transport any fluid that standard Create pipes can handle, so they work with fluids from other mods without issue.
Are there performance issues from using lots of colored pipes?
No, colored pipes have the same performance footprint as standard Create pipes since they share the same underlying mechanics.
Do I need Dye Depot or Colorful Depot to use this mod?
No, the mod works standalone with the standard sixteen dye colors. Dye Depot and Colorful Depot are optional additions that expand your color palette further if you want them.
