How to Transport Liquids with Fluid Pipes and Pumps
Setting Up Fluid Pipe Networks
Many advanced factory operations require moving liquids between storage areas and manufacturing stations. The modpack provides dedicated fluid transport tools to handle liquid flow.
1. Position processing tanks where you plan to store bulk fluids or feed liquid-based assembly lines.
2. Lay down fluid pipes extending from your liquid source or storage point directly to your destination tanks.
3. Install pumps along the pipeline to actively push fluids through the pipe network toward your machines.
Feeding Processing Tanks and Machinery
To maintain consistent production, integrate fluid transport into your automated setups:
1. Power your mechanical pumps using your existing rotational power infrastructure so they continuously drive fluids forward.
2. Inspect your pipe routing to confirm that fluid flows properly into the designated processing tanks.
3. Direct the output of your tanks into specialized processing machinery that requires fluid inputs for high-tier crafting recipes.
Properly configured fluid lines prevent production bottlenecks and ensure your automated factory components receive steady supplies of required liquids.
