[Suggestion] Vacuum hopper and regular hoppers

[Kisonu]

I think it might be easier to separate the ITEM and EXPERIECE pieces of the vacuum hopper into separate blocks. Personally I'd love to see that done. hopper input into the XP vacuum would accept glass bottle, which could then be piped out/collected, and the ITEM vacuum would just pull items in. (you could set up the XP vacuum with a dropper clock to eject the XP bottles, which could then be picked up with general mob grinder loot via the ITEM vacuum) then again, maybe I'm just over-complicating this.. lol

This is a good idea. However, using a regular hopper under either blocks should be sufficient to extract their items. This should also allow most pipe mods to work with them out of the box.

Edit to summarise : two blocks:

• XP vacuum:
  • draws and sinks nearby XP orbs, turning them in to liquid XP,
  • glass bottles can be inserted from the top or the sides,
  • glass bottles are filled with liquid XP, creating XP bottles,
  • XP bottles can be extracted from the bottom.
  • items can also be moved around using the GUI.
  • (not sure) liquid XP can extracted using liquid pipe/hopper.
• item vacuum:
  • draws and sinks nearby items,
  • items can be extracted from the bottom.
  • items can also be extracted using the GUI.

I think this woud be a good addition, at the moment i am using a vaccum hopper with a liquid hopper underneath. This vaccuum hopper is filled with wooden shovels to not catch items, there is a second one next to it catching the items that i just let the 15k run full. Having these seperate would make it alot nicer :D
