Offshore pump tricks

Post by leadraven »

Are you doing such tricks to integrate water pumps deep into your factory not to be limited to the coastline?
Also I've discovered that offshore pump will work even if you remove all water under it.

I found this one amusing: https://www.reddit.com/r/factorio/comme ... ell_pumps/

Notice what happens to the name of the pump when you landfill around it...

I´d call the renaming the actual "fix", gotta put at least some work into it on the dev side

to quote that reddit thread
Me: is this a bug or a feature?
Devs: yes.
