The distance has no bearing on whether or not it receives fluid - it's simply whichever entity updates first, which is dependent on the entity build order. And yes, I am aware of this, which is why this bug report is not in the resolved section.Filcius wrote: Tue Jul 14, 2026 7:18 pm I am afraid that it does not fix the plan where the far most consumer may never receive fluid. I would prefer these 3 cases to work the same, like they did in 2.0, I think it was easier to figure out for new and casual player. The 2.1 change may make the EM Plant not an easy replaceament for Assembler builder Blue Circuit for example.
The fix allow the tank not to wait to have many K of fluid before being used, but it does not change the main concerns I had in my original post.
