The filter-injectors used to always prefer to take items from the beginning of the source inventory. Because items also tend to get placed at the beginning of an inventory, this could lead to a chest+injector buffer only passing through a trickle of one type of item, where other item types are flowing in and getting later inventory slots. So now, the sequencing of source inventory slots is configurable, per-injector, by form. In addition to the old priority mode, there's now a random mode and a rotation mode. Incidentally refactor the filter-injector code, to avoid duplication between the itemwise and stackwise variants.
This mod uses nodeboxes to supply a complete set of 3D pipes and tubes, along devices that work with them. See http://vanessae.github.io/pipeworks/ for detailed information about usage of this mod. Unlike the previous version of this mod, these pipes are rounded, and when placed, they'll automatically join together as needed. Pipes can go vertically or horizontally, and there are enough nodes defined to allow for all possible connections. Valves and pumps can only be placed horizontally, and will automatically rotate and join with neighboring pipes as objects are added, as well as joining with each other under certain circumstances. Pipes come in two variants: one type bears one or more dark windows on each pipe, suggesting they're empty, while the other type bears green-tinted windows, as if full (the two colors should also be easy to select if you want to change them in a paint program). These windows only appear on straight lengths and on certain junctions. This mod is a work in progress. Please note that owing to the nature of this mod, I have opted to use 64px textures. Anything less just looks terrible.
