Lens (BuildCraft)

The Lenses are items added by BuildCraft and have the same function as the Lazuli Transport Pipe to paint items which flow through the lens. The items are painted in the color of the respective lens. Painted items can then be routed with the Daizuli Transport Pipe in the pipe system.

The Lenses can be manually integrated into many Transport Pipes of BuildCraft. Possible places are displayed with the contours of the resulting prepared lens, if the player holds the lens in his hand and moves with the crosshair over the pipes. With a right-click the lense is placed in the indicated position.

All items they flow through this lense are painted in the respective color of the lense. The Clear version of the Lense removes the color of the passing items. A pointless but simple demonstration is shown in picture, where the Stones are transported from the right to the left chest, and on the way are painted blue, yellow, red and discolored through lenses.
