Description
I'm not a fan of the hopper filter, so I made my own one.
This works less like a hopper barrier, but rather like a splitter.
The directions are adjustable with +/- keys and are shown in a diagram button left.
Everything is displayed quite colorful. Yellow = Input, Green = Output, Cyan = Filter, Red = Blocked
Depending on the model, you can either set the type or the item to be filtered itself.
There is a overflow option, a keylock for people who often unintentionally change machine settings(like me :D), and a PackageMode for my PackerMod.
To filter packages from PackerMod, just select the package option and set the filter for inner item.
Press ALT while build to apply the rotation of the previously built filter.


Thanks to Mad Vandal, I have learnd many from your DistributionSplitter.


I have tested it as well as I could, but bugs are not excluded. If you found a bug, post it in the "Bug Report" discussion, please.
I would be very pleased about feedback.

I am not responsible for anything. This is a mod, use at your own risk!

Noticed that these filters introduced lag micro stutters into my game. I noticed this after having about 10 running. They work great but I hate lag more then anything. Not sure why they would do this...perhaps to many checks per tick or something. This was on a small base as well, i hadnt even hooked up lithium to my main bus yet....anyway, 2 cents :)

USE WITH CAUTION! This is a real resource hog.

I attempted to use these filters to sort mob drops (lucrative mobs) and had over 100 of them running. I experienced severe lag, timeouts, crashes; and could no longer use teleporters without crashing. Once I picked up the filters, everything returned to normal.

Found quite the exploit, easily reproduced, posted in bug reports.

I just tried these out and these are fantastic. My falcor network used to require a dozen storage hoppers with filters on both outputs, and now the hoppers have been eliminated and so have half of the filters. Very, very nice. Kudos to you, and, of course, kudos to Mad Vandal for the distribution splitter that you based it on.

I've never thought about that, the next time I patch, I make the button variable.

I actually use it just as much! Both prove to be fantastic for so many uses.

You should also try the DistributionSplitter, which served as an example for this mod.

Your mod is incredible, exactly what I wanted AND needed. a compact, simple, and effective in-conveyor filtering system.

logistics in this game like a mess without mods...

I know, just one of those facepalm moments. Going to have a lot of fun trying out new configurations with this tomorrow!
