Hi this is my first post to the forum and I'm really new to modding so don't know much but let's say I wanted a lab to need water in order work,how would i do this? Thanks

You can't. The lab entity doesn't support fluids.

But isn't there a way to 'trick' it into taking fluids in order for it to run?

You can use scripts to
hide a pipe under the lab, remove water from the pipe and set lab's field `active` so it would do its thing. Or add another science pack to the technology in question and insert that one when water is in pipe.

I think I'm going to try this when I get home but if this doesn't work then how do you "edit" the current technologies to add science packs? Thanks
