Fluid Storage

Ender Tank

The Ender Tank is a specialized block designed for multi-dimensional liquid storage. Like the Ender Chest, it utilizes a three-color code system to link with other Ender Tanks, creating a shared fluid network. Each Ender Tank can hold 16,000 mB (16 buckets) of any single liquid.

Properties

• Fluid Capacity: Stores 16,000 mB (16 buckets) of a single liquid type.
• Color Coding: Features three dyeable wool pads on top, linking it to a specific fluid network.
• Input/Output Control: A gold valve on the front of the tank controls its mode:
• Blue Markers (Default): The tank accepts liquids but does not automatically output them. Liquids must be extracted using external means like pipes.
• Orange Markers: The tank automatically outputs its contents into connected fluid transport systems. It can still receive liquids, but at a slower rate.
• Redstone Control: The input/output mode can be toggled with a Redstone signal. A high (on) signal activates blue markers (input), while a low (off) signal activates orange markers (output).
• Privacy: Similar to Ender Chests, right-clicking the gold valve with a diamond makes the tank private, linking it only to other private tanks locked by the same player.
• Persistence: Stored fluids are not lost if the tank is broken.
• Warning: Historically, Ender Tanks have been known to cause severe damage to saves, including chunk resets and eventual corruption in some versions.

Crafting

(Arrangement: Blaze Rods in corners, Obsidian on sides of cauldron, Cauldron in center, Wool on top, Ender Pearl on bottom.)

Coloring

The color code of an Ender Tank can be set by right-clicking any of the three wool pads on its top with a dye in hand. The initial color code of a newly crafted Ender Tank defaults to the color of the wool block used in its creation.
