[2.0.13] Fluid deletion on tank rotation with thrusters

Post by nosjojo »

When storage tanks are rotated while connected directly to thrusters, it deletes the fluid in the tank and replaces it with the overlapping fluid from the other side.

Example, this setup:

Thanks for the report. When you force mix fluids they will end up in a state you don't want. The solution to that is to not force mix fluids. They are in fact not deleted but stored in the pipe network. You can click the pipe and see for yourself.
If you want to get ahold of me I'm almost always on Discord.
