"Sloshing" occurs when a pipe is not completely full, causing the fluid to move back and forth and creating bottlenecks.
Pipeline pumps are essential for moving liquids higher than 10m. Mk1 pumps lift 20m, while Mk2 pumps lift 50m. Pipe Limits: Mk1 pipes hold , and Mk2 pipes hold
Fluids flow downward easily but require pressure to go upward.
Raise a large Fluid Buffer high above your machines to guarantee maximum head lift for the entire system, ignoring gravity constraints below the tower.
Place fluid buffers at the same height or slightly higher than the machines they feed to ensure gravity helps.
Direct inputs from above into machines can prevent pipes from draining fully when the machine stops. 3. Effective Setup Strategies
Utilize the AWESOME Shop to unlock colored pipes to distinguish between water, oil, and fuel lines. 2. Preventing "Sloshing" and Pipe Failure
Water extractors have a limited 10m head lift, meaning they can push water 10 meters vertically without assistance.
