# HexHopper<\/p>\n
**Place hoppers in all 6 directions. Rotate push and pull independently with a compass.**<\/p>\n
Vanilla hoppers are locked: they always pull from above and can only push downward or sideways. HexHopper removes that restriction. When you place a hopper, it faces the surface you clicked \u2014 including up. Use a compass to reconfigure any hopper after placement without breaking it.<\/p>\n

## How it works<\/p>\n
### Placement<\/p>\n
Hold a hopper and click any face of a block. The hopper’s **push direction** (the spout) will face the surface you clicked. The **pull direction** (the funnel opening) is set automatically based on where you’re looking \u2014 it picks the closest direction that isn’t already taken by the push.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
### Compass: right-click rotates pull direction<\/p>\n
Hold a **compass** and **right-click** a hopper to cycle its **pull direction** (funnel) through the five valid options. A message appears in the action bar after each click showing the current pull direction.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
### Compass: left-click rotates push direction<\/p>\n
Hold a **compass** and **left-click** a hopper to cycle its **push direction** (spout) through the five valid options. The same action bar message appears confirming the new push direction.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n

## Compatibility<\/p>\n
HexHopper modifies vanilla `HopperBlock` and `HopperBlockEntity` using Mixins. It is compatible with:<\/p>\n
– **Existing worlds** \u2014 hoppers placed before installing the mod default to pull=Up, which matches vanilla behaviour exactly
\n– **MinecartHoppers** \u2014 fall back to vanilla pull=Up behaviour
\n– **Mods that don’t touch hopper logic** \u2014 storage mods, visual mods, etc.<\/p>\n
**Not compatible with mods that also modify HopperBlock or HopperBlockEntity** (other hopper-direction mods, some deep storage mods). HexHopper also overrides `assets\/minecraft\/blockstates\/hopper.json` \u2014 resource packs or mods that replace the same file will conflict visually.<\/p>\n
