Which now makes me wonder why straight pipes don't have directionality. They do have directionality. There are no exceptions. This is how fluid system works: first, all entities are evaluated in their build order, then all active joints are evaluated in order of cardinal directions. Note that every...

From this sentence i think you are doing the same shortcut as i do I do'nt see how this could indicate a fault in reasonning. So, the way the argument goes, there are two phases for a pipeline to stabilize. First, "startup" phase, where fluid entered pipeline, but didn't reach the sink. S...

If i'm not doing mistake in my understanding, ( please correct me if i do ) if pipes are built in reverse direction, or if fluid flow backward, the amount of time required for a system to stabilize is the same past n tick, where n is the lengh of the pipelane. So if the lane is 100 pipes long, the ...

Alright, I'm back! Sorry for the delay, had to put this project on hold for a while. But, I'm back with processed data, so we can enjoy some pointless numbers and graphs. Measurements I collected a few datasets in total concerning flow speed through pipes. For every pipe length setup includes pump -...

I've been reading your paper again, and i think i wrongly attributed the situation you described as "overflow" ( or its absence) as the cause/factor explaining the "breakpoint" at 197. Breakpoint at 197 appears because of min(nu*F, C/10) switching to nu*F in formulas. I guess th...

the Lisp code given here is exactly what happens in the game code. This is amazing, I will take a look, thanks! From what I can tell, it is evaluated once per connection ("joint") Also great news, thank you! (At least my formula derivations are correct) There is no need for extra in-game ...

Hello there, author of this post here. People on reddit pinged me about this thread. So, I intend to look into this with my formulas, but right now I'm redoing the math + reimplementing the formula, so I can do tests. Not sure what I'm doing wrong this time, but I didn't get breakpoint around 197 :l...
