I'll duplicate the request from here, we need the valve:

I think you're out of luck. The "valves" in this mod are actually tweaked storage tanks, the only entity that can start/stop fluid flow is a pump, and that requires a power source.

That is sad. But thank you anyway. :)

Should be possible to set the power requirement to 0 and internal buffer to never deplete. It may blink all the time though.

Is there a way to create a fluid filter?
Input 2 or more fluids and output a fluid depending on circuit condition.

btw:
Can it be possible to dynamically change the throughput of the overflow valve depending on the value of the signal? If there is no signal then the bypass value is 0. And the fluid flows freely. Otherwise, the bypass value is set to 100% and the liquid flow is blocked. ;)

I really hope to see this get updated for 0.15. It makes oil setups so much easier.

Updated to 0.15, removed express pump as vanilla pump buffs have rendered it obsolete.

Thanks, that was fast. Any plans to update the textures to 2x so they match the base game?

Added HD option for pipe sprites. Valves still in standard definition.

Pipes and valves had only two rotations in Factorio 0.15.10, this is now fixed.

Is it an easy fix? I need to temporarily fix my valves for Angel's Mod, it's suffering from the same problem, and more than half of my factory has stopped production due to this bug. Mind detailing your change?

Add the following to each storage-tank type entity:

Code: Select all

two_direction_only = false

Sorry for asking such a stupid question, I found the line you added with a neat plugin in Notepad++, thank you for taking the time to help me try to fix a problem with somebody else's mod. That's very selfless of you. By the way, is there a way to use your mod in conjunction with Angel's mods and disable the valves of Angels's? Or does it just create a second set and I can ignore Angel's set?

I don't use Angel's mods so I'm not sure what they add.

You should just be able to ignore either mine or his, I don't expect there to be any negative effect from doing so.

Too much to count. I'll go ahead and add your mod, and see how it works with both enabled. Angel's mods have so many luas, and I'm not sure where to add that line you posted. I'll post here if you can have them enabled simultaneously without problems.

Angel did some funky stuff with his mod and disabled the tech Fluid Handling. Which is how your valves are unlocked, so no dice there. I'll just have to wait for him to update his mod after 15.10. Thanks again for all of your assistance on this matter.
