    This is exactly what i was looking for.... Thanks a lot

    what ive taken to doing is pumping every individual instance of line into 1 or 2 of the spacey tanks. set to air, with nothing in them initially. (this is to pull out gas with gas filters)
    this is so i can remove the forbidden liquid called gas(becuase it acts nothing like a gas and blocks up everything like a liquid).
    and then ultimately i could rehash the lines back into the diseal tanks. though how well do you think air pumping custom fluid tanks is?
    also how do you go about cooling your custom engines? do you just run them stupid low and call that profit? have you given up on them entirely aside from creative mode like me?

      I was doing similar things untill i realized that fluid flows fast with gases in the line, however when it came to this I figured the gas was blocking the port and thus needed a place to go. if you use a Liquid filter you need a gas filter to send gas somewhere else. so ended up not blocking port.
      Most cooling fails ive seen is adding too much water like a cooling tank. i can run off of a single radiator based on engine and if i want to run harder try adding more equipment to enhance. but case by case.

      @@archadeseng.corpsgaming intresting. though how do you add too much water to a system? it always feels like radiators need 3 large tanks of freshwater befor they display they have water in them.
      ive also tried super-cooling the water with like, a large line of coolers ya know? but the more i look around at cooling. the more i feel like all cooling is tied to the global temperature regions, and becuase of that its insanely hard to lower water temp unless your in or near the artic.

      @@endeyfire typically by just adding a tank of water to a system, like a small fluid tank. my guess is it over fills to pipes a limits the room to empty ports to a pipe data wise thus slows movement in entire system. lowering content of tank helps sometimes. stacking radiators in a series can go bad too as the previous radiators will heat up ones down line which will reheat the eng coolant to a higher temp. dont underestimate the liquid - air coolers as a booster to cooling line. like manifold > radiator > liquid air exchanger > manifold.

      @@archadeseng.corpsgaming now i feel like it would be good to know how much fluid stuff holds lol. i do wish there were a few more tools to help figure out cooling cuase now im just confused.
      and it feels like your explaining your muscle memory to me.

    could you do one on what the quickest way to depressurize a tank? i can build up a huge pressure in my tanker to speed pumping out fuel but then there is a long wait to depressurize. this slows refilling the tanker. i have tried numerous pumps and tried just straight air filters. i've also tried using doors but that lets fuel out as well.

      Indeed I could. But from personal experience I can tell you start with is a bunch of small individual pumping systems.
