[1.1.14] Oil pump can drain oil into void

Post by Murzik »

I've got following setup on the picture. By mistake I connected oil pump to the inactive input of the refinery. Oil pump works fine, but oil is gone - probably spilling onto the landscape.

How to replicate:
1. Place pump
2. Place refinery as shown on the picture
3. Select basic oil processing recipe
4. Power up

I have Alien Biomes, Bottleneck and Vehicle Snap mods installed.

Very miner I would say, and I think we need to set a limit.

It's not spilling, just filling internal buffer of the oil pump. Wait a bit and it will stop.

Oh, right, I thought that it is putting in a wrong input, ok, not a bug then.
