Description
Current version: 2.1d
Please refer to the changelog for patch notes.


This mod adds several new conveyor tube shapes, as well as armored versions of all conveyor tubes to the game, allowing you more freedom when designing your conveyor systems. It also adds other miscellaneous conveyor-related blocks, such as the Conveyor Access, which is a half-block of the size of an air vent that allows you to access your cargo network without having to place a cargo container.

AQD - A Quantum of Depth is a project of mine, encompassing multiple small and larger mods aimed at improving the gameplay experience and eventually overhauling larger parts of the game:





New Conveyor Shapes
The mod currently adds the following new conveyor shapes:
  • Conveyor X Junction
  • Conveyor Tube Junction
  • Conveyor Endcap
  • Conveyor Tube 5x1
Armored Conveyors
Furthermore, the mod contains armored versions of all conveyor tube shapes:
  • Conveyor Tube
  • Conveyor Corner
  • Conveyor T Junction
  • Conveyor X Junction
Miscellaneous Conveyor Blocks
  • Conveyor Access - It allows for easy access of the conveyor system without having to place a cargo container and only taking up a half block's space.

General notes
  • Green / Yellow indicators for connectivity are iffy. This is unfortunately a limitation within Keen's emissive code that only supports up to two connections for conveyor tubes.
  • I will add additional blocks to the pack but I'm as of now not committing to adding additional conveyor shapes. I've got some ideas there but I think what I've got in now covers most use cases and at some point, adding too many shapes will make using all of them more annoying.
  • The conveyors are only for large grid. I don't currently have plans to make versions for small grid.




  • Archan79 - For fixing the mess that was my initial tube junction model.

Would be useful to have 3 point corner tube.

Despite updates on conveyor tubes, some of these like the X junction are still missing in the game...

I assume that this question has already been asked but I can't find it.

Any chance you'll be adding pipe conveyor versions? They're so much prettier is all. :)

Im also missing the original conveyor junction. I think something messes it up, because "Conveyor Sorter" and "Converyor Junction" are marked as "N/A" for both small and large grids inside the toolbar config. Might be a mod conflict?

I did check. It's there. Also, this mod has not been changed in months so it's not like it'd suddenly break with neither SE nor mod update.

@enenra, You might want to check to be sure because it's not in there either, in fact there is no "Armored Conveyor Group" that I could find, unless you mean the "Reinforced Conveyors" but it's not there either. In fact I tried searching for it and it never comes up.

it's in the armored conveyor group

What happened to the Air-tight Conveyor Junction?

I wish the vanilla reinforced conveyors would still show in the same block group as they do in vanilla with this mod installed.
