Pipe Connection

Post by LuziferSenpai »

Is there a way to set up a Categorie for Pipe Connection? I mean that they only connect to the Categorie not to other.

Not directly i think, but i thought up a trick you could pull,

I think it would work if you offset the pipe connections for the pipes, so that if a new pipe and the vanilla pipe touch, their fluid inputs don't line up, so they don't connect.

If you play with the fluidbox settings for a pipe entity, you might be able to get it to work

I suggest an ofset of something like 0.5, but i think you would need a 'converter' pipe to match up the pipes with other entities like the chemical plants
