About this project

What does Hopper Gadgetry add?

Hopper Gadgetry expands Minecraft’s item transport with practical hopper-style blocks for cleaner, smarter automation. It adds chutes, ducts, and grated hoppers that help move items exactly where you need them without overcomplicating your builds ⚙️.

The mod is especially useful for sorting systems, compact farms, and rail-based collection setups. Chutes quickly pass dropped items into containers, ducts move items through directed connections, and grated hoppers add simple item filtering for more controlled collection 🔎.

  • ⛓️ Grated Hopper: Filter items so only matching types are collected when slots are set.
  • 📦 Duct: Move items into connected containers. Do not pull items or interact with drops. Works in any direction and can be chained.
  • ⬇️ Chute: Drop items straight into the container below. No storage, no input, only downward transfer.
  • 🚂 Grated Hopper Minecart: Mobile version of the grated hopper with full filtering while moving.
  • 🚋 Chute Minecart: Picks up items and deposits them into containers below while moving. Useful for automated cleanup paths.
