Steam Engine can no longer destroy non-water fluids

I am sure this change was intentional, but I am reporting it as a bug because it leaves the player with no way to get rid of excess fluids. This means that before researching the tech for cracking, there is no way to automate fluid handling in a way that won't eventually fill something up and stop working.

Hello,

I guess you mistake the boiler for the steam engine because until further notice you only could void liquids in steam engines so far.

Greetings, steinio.

Thanks, fixed it.

Also, some folks on Reddit reminded me that we can still make solid fuel from the excess fluids, so I guess this is Working As Intended and I just need to build some combinator fuel-making logic.

Yes, it was changed on purpose to only accept "steam".
