    So wait, we can't use normal gravity?

    Can we make a mechanism that will create pressure? Meaning not using any elements such as VACU or fan wall. I got a solution in mind.

    Uses Liquid Nitrogen for displacement, takes a while to get the temperature to an appropriate level, slightly less volatile than the other creations :P, It's fully autonomous, but can take a while to detect when it has finished collecting oil.

    Take a look at judgement section again: I've added slowness and compactness options.

     

    @Lockheedmartin

    No, you can't create pressure in any way.

     

    @BuysDB

    Nice, but it should be fully automatic (one on button)

     

    @Simon

    Oil turns into gas :-P

    Now I decrease points if your creation is unstable.

     

    @Ximon

    95 points. Very-very slow. Maybe thicker pipe?

     

    @Fast-Diver

    97 points. Very unstable - I usually get a flame thrower.

     

    @BuysDB

    110 points. Steam goes out too slow.

    @Buysdb -that was brilliant!

    However, I have 3 pix. of oil left over.

    Mine does have an explosion, but it is very weak and doesn't disturb anything.  I still think it is cool anyway...  I didn't make it pretty, so i'll just lose points for that.

    @cracker64-only issue with yours is that some oil gets turned into gas.

    I still like it!
