[2.0.15] Pipe content icon in alt-mode missing or redundant on some pipe combinations

Post by ObviouslyN0tMe »

I placed some pipes and noticed the missing water icon. On our mp server i had this happen with other fluids and on other planets too. Logfile and savefile with example are attached.

I want to say this is intended. The pipe sections you highlighted are exactly the ones with a little window, showing its contents explicitly.
All the pipe sections with additional alt-mode icons are ones without windows, i.e. where you cannot see their contents without alt-mode.

Fair, in this case it is pretty obvious. Originally i got confused with Crude Oil during night, cause it could very well be an empty pipe imo. But you are right, probably not a bug then.

Edit: If you look at the crude oil pipe at the top tho, i get a icon every second pipe while in alt-mode
