The setup i used (as least as close to it as i can make from memory) to test the flow and retention rate of PIPE along the x axis. I hope this answers any questions you may have.

    So you're saying that pipe works fine for uploaded saves? Hmm...

    it's because uploading it to TPT messes with the particle order.

    im not sure if it is cause im running the an updated version of the old legacy app but iv ran this about 5 times and the curves are always even

    I already uploaded some diamond graphs of the two different types. i tried drawing the PIPE in different ways and it made no difference. (ie drew right before left half or vice versa. the graph came out the same)

    interesting... i may try to recreate the experiment on my own to see the effect again :)

    I wonder if opening a save from the server has somehow changed the particle order...

    Something has gone wrong with this save. when i drew the aperatus you see here, it produced the same lopsided results as shown in the other save. However, upon uploading it, closing it, opening something else, then reopening this save, the problem seems to have "fixed itsself". i have never seen symmetrical PIPE flow before, this is honestly more interesting than what i was expecting, though i am sad my demonstration doesn't work.
