Description:

This mod introduces a new type of pipe output, which will output to a pipe if there is one and output to the room if there is no pipe. This means the same building can be used both with and without pipe connections.

Technically the buildings will store the output and if there is no pipe, then it will release the gas to the room regardless of room pressure. If it’s a liquid output, then it will drip on the floor. If there is a pipe, then it will use the pipe instead and not vent to the room. It can merge pipe contents like bridges. A building stops if it stores 5 seconds worth of gas/liquid as this is used as indicator for blocked pipe.

The output pipes are colored according to the element they will release. This is particularly helpful for buildings with more than one output like the electrolyzer.

A few exceptions exist to the standard rule, like algae terrariums will require emptying if no pipe output and the electrolyzer can overpressure from room pressure, even if outputting to pipes.

Written to be as compatible with other mods as possible. Intentionally made compatible with Coal Generator Delivery Fixes.

Safe to add or remove in existing savegames. However adding new pipe outputs does come with the risk that say a polluted water output shows up on top of a clean water pipe.

Applies to the following buildings:

– Oxygen diffuser
– Algae terrarium
– Electrolyzer
– Rust deoxidizer
– Gas range
– Coal generator
– Wood generator
– Natural gas generator
– Petroleum generator
– Fertilizer synthesizer
– Ethanol distillery
– Oil refinery
– Polymer press
– Oil well
