I've never really noticed this before but apparently Pumpjacks, which are the only mining drills using an outgoing fluid box, don't actually display how full it is?
For example:
I only know it's full because it says it's full, but there's no information regarding what's actually in it. Only from code do I know it can store 1000 units of fluid, but it would be really useful to have that information presented in the game.
So is it a bug? Is it a feature request? Is it intended behavior?

Thanks for the report. I have implemented this for 2.0.33.
Don't forget, you're here forever.

I've actually "noticed" this, kind of, but it never occurred to me to consider it a bug or missing feature. Thanks for fixing!
