Hydraulic Kinetic Links FAQ
6 questions players actually ask, answered.
What are the main components needed to build a hydraulic system in this mod?
You need a 
Linear Actuator, Rubber Hoses to connect fluid pipes, and a 
Pressure Gauge to monitor your system. A fluid pump is also required to push fluid through the system.

Hydraulic cylinders are physics-driven and act as independent buildable platforms that react directly to the weight of cargo, fluid thickness, and pump pressure, rather than simply pushing blocks.
What do Rubber Hoses do in the Hydraulic Kinetic Links Mod?
Rubber Hoses are bendable, physics-based lines that connect fluid pipes across moving sections of your contraption without breaking connections when parts move.
What information does a Pressure Gauge provide?
A Pressure Gauge tracks the fluid stress across your hydraulic lines to help you prevent cylinders from bursting due to excessive pressure.

Yes, cylinders can span custom lengths across any straight path depending on your contraption's needs.
What factors determine how much weight a hydraulic cylinder can push?
The cylinder's pushing power is determined by fluid viscosity and pump pressure in the system.
