For a better example of compound entity management, look at how Shortwave Fixed radios work, and how Cargo Ships oil rigs work.

Cargo Ships is alive and well. Oil Rigs are an optional feature in it . Cargo Ships even includes an API so other mods can add new ships that use the same mechanics. All you need are the graphics models.

... called Cargo Ships originally, but think it got merged with another mod - Oil rigs or something?

It is basically trains on water. Rails are rendered as a shipping lane (a plain thin line, but placed like rails) and otherwise functions identically, but of course no wagons.

Using Pumpjack rather than offshore oil rigs and boats feels like a missed opportunity, but on the other hand I understand the gameplay choice of not having boats. Having a new massive building just for that would be a waste of graphic asset / RAM.

Pumpjacks are probably fine as long as it cannot ...

The Cargo Ships mod includes oil deposits that spawn in water for extraction by oil rigs and ships. I need some advice for how to improve this and how to ensure compatibility with RSO. I recently took over maintaining the scripts, and this was my first attempt at resource modifications.

I saw a mod that lets you make ground water drills similar to oil rigs but for ground water, haven't tried it myself.

... Tankers can be loaded at ports, but you can also send them to pick up oil from off-shore oil rigs. The mod also provides a small boat.


Or, even use a variety of railroad? Like, a "shipping lane" item, which is semi-visible.

The mod provides so-called waterways, which are free to produce. You ...

I'm just not sure how you'd go about doing it. There's currently no way to walk on water.

... is silly and has nothing to do with how it actually works.
It works with oil rigs since they only mine 1 resource node. And normal miner also mines only 1 node but calculation doesn't take that into account on infinite patches.
