Re: Switching steam off with hot/cold water mixing

Yeah! We don't care about usefulness or "we can do better with combinator". Playing with toy is fun! Great concept! I think I will try the cold/hot water switch idea with my multi stage steam factory. It s way more élégant than "moving item around"! The engine running always on i...
