Rotatable funnel

🚀 ** Revolutionize your Stardew Valley hopper system! ** Adds full directional control and advanced filtering to the regular funnel!

---

✨ Core Functions

**Omni-directional direction control** - Allows the funnel to transport items in any direction, no longer limited to the original downward transport!

  • **Upward Funnel**: Pull items from below and push them upwards
  • **Downward Funnel**: Pull items from above and push them below (original behavior + filtering)
  • **Left Funnel**: Pull items from the right and push to the left
  • **Right Funnel**: Pull items from the left and push to the right

🎮Various control methods

  • **Modifier Keys**: Hold down Shift/Ctrl/Alt when placing the funnel to quickly select the direction
  • **Hotkey Cycle**: Use the [ and ] keys (or controller triggers) to cycle through directions
  • **Right-click to cycle**: Shift+right-click on an existing funnel to change direction
  • **UI Button**: Interactive directional button in the funnel inventory interface
  • **Console commands**: left_hopper, up_hopper, right_hopper quick creation

🔍 Advanced filtration system

  • **Item Filter**: Use items in the hopper inventory as a filter
  • **Quality Filter**: Match items by star quality (optional)
  • **Quantity Limit**: Set the maximum number of transfers (optional)
  • **Smart Match**: Handle processed items like flavored wine and jellies
  • **Filter Switch**: Disable filtering for high-speed bulk transfers

👁️ Visual Indicators

  • **Direction Arrow**: The customizable color arrow above the funnel shows the direction of transfer.
  • **Customized sprite**: exquisite UI direction selection button
  • **21 color options**: black, blue, green, red, purple and more
  • **Performance Optimization**: Render arrows only when needed

⚡ Performance optimization

  • **High Throughput**: transfer up to 20 groups of items per cycle when filtering is enabled
  • **Smart Indexing**: Pre-index target containers for faster transfers
  • **Adaptive Processing**: Reduce processing frequency when filtering is disabled
  • **Unlimited Chest Support**: Optimized handling of unlimited storage of modules

⚙️ Easy configuration

  • **General module configuration menu** integrated, can be set in the game
  • Configure hotkeys, visual options and filtering behavior
  • **CONTROLLER SUPPORT**: Full gamepad compatibility
  • **Independent settings for each archive**: different farms use different configurations

🔧 How it works

This mod uses Harmony patches to override vanilla hopper behavior while maintaining full compatibility. Each directional funnel:

  • Pull items from the specified source direction
  • Apply filtering based on items in inventory (if enabled)
  • Push items in the target direction
  • Use with boxes and machines
  • Process transfers every 1-2 seconds for real-time automation

📦 Installation and Compatibility

  • Install SMAPI (required)
  • Install universal module configuration menu (recommended for simple configuration)
  • Place this mod into the Mods folder
  • Compatible with Automate, Chests Anywhere and most storage/automation mods

🎯 Applicable scenarios

  • **Factory Builder** Create complex production lines
  • **Perfectionist** needs precise item routing
  • **Creative Builder** Design sophisticated automation systems
  • **Quality of life enthusiast** wants a smarter funnel

💫 **Revolutionize your farm logistics systems with directional funnels and make them work the way you want! **

Install & use Install: SMAPI mod (Stardew Valley standard)

  1. Install SMAPI first (Stardew Valley's mod loader): download it from smapi.io, run 'install on Windows.bat' and pick your game folder.
  2. Unzip the archive from playbuff and find the folder that contains manifest.json — that folder is the mod.
  3. Copy that whole folder into Stardew Valley/Mods/.
  4. Launch the game through SMAPI (run StardewModdingAPI.exe or set it as the launch option). The console before the title screen lists each mod's load result.

Cheat-style tools may not need SMAPI — unzip and run them as the readme describes. Back up your save before editing it; SMAPI lists failed mods in its console.
