Both tank and sink now use FluidHelper methods to handle FluidContainer
items. As well this should solve the sink not being able to accept
fluids. Unsure at this moment if it solved issues with tank draining.
More testing will be conducted. However, error correction will show up
in CoreMachine due to it containing the helper methods.
I think it simple came down to i need to clean up the network before
doing anything to the network. As well i think the fluid container
network was not clearing the save stack data when it was empty.
Not sure what i did in the last few commits, and in this one but the
tanks don't work much at all now. They have rendering, saving, loading,
merging, and other issues now. Not much has really changed to cause this
bad of a reaction from the code.
Forgot i renamed the core package for tile networks a while back. Since
when building the core this package is actually copied into it best i
make sure it is done right.
Too start with i original was avoiding making such a system since it
boils down to an object crafting system. Though with my future and
current plans i decided to start working on it.
The system, when finish, will be able to handle mixing of fluids, Items,
Blocks, and anything to form a result of some kind. The idea is to used
it in the pipes, tanks, brewing stand, boilers, and other machines to
automated the process of mixing fluids. For pipes it will either create
a new fluid, or prevent the pipe from working. Tanks will do the same
but can become filled with blocks or items. Brewing stand will use the
system to create new fluids, gases, potions, foods, drinks, items, and
so on. Boiler will use the simple version of it to convert a fluid to
another fluid without any other processing.
Something wasn't going write and right now is not the time to create new
bugs. So for now i'll work with the old network and improve it first.
Then i'll create a new network separated from the old one for multi-tank
setup. When it get to the point that can do the job of the old one and
the new one i'll remove the old network.
Didn't get far as i hit a mental design issues with how the tank network
handles fluids. Currently it only supports one tank. Which means i will
need to recode it to support more, as well recode the network part api
to support several tanks per part. This will take time to design as i
need to both support legacy tiles and prevent future issues. Time may
equal a day.
Steam Power is finally back with its other half basic pipes. Its been a
long time since these two mods were once the same exact mod. Now they
are rejoined though steam power was left rusting in the archive a bit
too long. Most of its content was remove and needs to be rewrote from
scratch. Fluid Mechanics aka basic pipes has since then become a nice
mod and is mostly bug free. Now with the addition of steampower maybe
just maybe now the mod will become more useful to the end user.
This was planned to give more options to the other sub mods of the core.
The parts item will be expanded adding more and more sub items for
crafting. The tool was already expanded to add a multi-meter.
