I'm trying to interface LogisticsPipes with ComputerCraft, to programmatically shuffle fluids around. Calling getType on a wrapped Fluid Request Pipe simply returns LogisticsPipes:Normal as opposed to LogisticsPipes:Request or LogisticsPipes:FluidRequest (or anything to that effect). As such, nothing can be requested by the computer.

Are fluid pipes supported ?

I'm using ComputerCraft 1.74 and LogisticsPipes 0.9.2.29.

There currently is no computer integration for fluid pipes. For that reason everything defauls back to the next type of pipe which has comupter craft commands, in this case that's the default pipe.

I understand.

I've been looking to get my hands dirty with Minecraft mod development; I have a background in software engineering. I might try to implement the integration for fluid pipes. Is it alright if I bug you on IRC with questions on how to get LogisticsPipes to build ?

Sure, and if I'm not there maybe someone else will be able to help you as well.
