No blueprint cause you can't blueprint it :/

Maybe two blueprints, the first one without pipes and the second one pipes only?

How about fraction cracking?

The pipes isn't the problem unfortunately. The problem is it requires a setup process where you have to pump fluids in to the system to 'prime' the pumps with the correct fluids so it works properly.

Cracking? I haven't experimented with a mixed fluid cracking design. I don't see an advantage for fluid mixing in that situation?



Experimentation with sorting more than 3 liquids. 5 liquids is the max. Works in ideal. Highly likely won't work in realistic situation.
