How the Parts Fit Together

Most of Create Factory Logistics comes down to two ideas: mechanisms that perform a conversion, and links that let those mechanisms talk to each other.

The Fluid Mechanism is the core fluid component. It is produced from an Incomplete Fluid Mechanism, which is the intermediate stage before the mechanism is finished. Once complete, it enables fluid handling in the machines that need it.

The Network Link is the connective piece. Placing links lets the packagers, bottlers, and gauges operate as one system rather than as isolated blocks, which is what makes automated item and fluid transport possible.

The Factory Fluid Gauge and Factory Chemical Gauge are the readouts for that system, showing what is present or moving through the network.

A practical build order: make your mechanisms first, place your packager and bottler, add gauges where you want to monitor flow, then connect everything with Network Links. The Composite Package and Composite PackageJar are what you will see coming out of the packaging side.
