Basic logistics pipe can craft from Unrouted transport pipe.

forge 10.13.4.1481
logisticspipes 0.9.1.15

Doesn't that mean you can now make basic logistics pipes without diamonds or gold?

The Basic Logistics Pipe can also be crafted from the Logistics Request Table - in that case it's the opposite of an exploit.

P.S.: Breaking the Unrouted Transport Pipe doesn't drop an item.

The original bug posted by @Patus has been fixed in logisticspipes-0.9.1.142.jar (BC6.4) and logisticspipes-0.9.2.18.jar (BC7), but the additional somewhat related issues in my comment above are still present.

Unrouted Pipe drops are fixed.
I don't see why we should add more level of reset recipies for pipes. It would only add more recipes to the already really packed mc crafting system.
