Through a combination of SPNG and GEL I was able to create a super fast water pipe. UPDATE: Added regular PIPE for comparison. UPDATE: Improved regular PIPE so it wasn't bottlenecked at corners. Fast-PIPE version available here: ID:2953591

  @MahnIAM Temperatures above 100 degrees and/or air flow can displace the GEL which will stop it from working or reduce its performance. Excessive positive or negative pressure can cause it to dehydrate which will release a massive amount of water, and require the same massive amount of water to rehydrate when the pressure returns to near 0.

  how durable is this?

  to find the fast-PIPE version search "ID:2953591"

  @RaconTPT ok, I've tested it against fast-PIPE and it was able to achieve two thirds the speed of my SPNG/GEL pipe. 100% speed should be possible with correct particle ID ordering, but the save/load process resets particle ID order so that's not feasible.

  I think this is amazing! +100! Who didn't anyone think of this before!?

  @RandomFoxBoy I think @RaconTPT is referring to 1 pixel wide pipes which are extremely fast for some reason.

  @Yim-The-Muon yes, which is why I called it a water pipe and not just a pipe. This property can be useful if you need to separate water specifically from other liquids and don't want to have to bother with STOR.

  just not a very good one

  @RaconTPT It is a fast pipe design next to it

  Interesting use of water absorption, however, it only works for water as oil does not like sponge nor gel.
