Given there is a hopper limit, of 100 hoppers per player, in effect on this server due to performance concerns. I would like to suggest the "Craftbook" plugin to offer a performance efficient alternative in the form of: "Craftbook Pipes" See Documentation here: https://craftbook.enginehub.org/en/latest/mechanics/pipes/ This plugin would provide players with a performance efficient method to create very large item sorters and transporters that require only glass, signs, pistons (that won't extend or retract) and a single small red-stone clock to work. No observers, No hopper, No TPS impact and the each system can be shutoff by disabling the single Redstone clock required to run each system. And the system does not force the server to load chunks when the system crosses into unloaded areas (a staple of hoppers with which they are used to create chunks loaders)
