Water disappears in a full loop

    I built a DEUT reactor, and the water slowly disappears from the cooling loop.

     

     

    Steps to reproduce:

    1. Open save (https://powdertoy.co.uk/Browse/View.html?ID=2969823).

    2. Press the "F" button and wait for DEUT to fill the reactor.

    3. Press the "N" button and wait for around 3 minutes.

    4. BOOM! 90% of water magically disappeared.

     

    The water is not escaping from the loop.

     

    Is it a bug?

    It seems that the problem is in the liquid wall between the cooling chamber and the heating chamber. Part of the water heats up and evaporates while inside the liquid wall, but since only liquids can be inside this wall (and WTRV is a gas), the vapor is destroyed.
    Solution: remove this liquid wall, it's really not necessary

    Thanks, it solved the problem :)

    Didn't know that wall can destroy particles, I thought it just pushes it out.

     

    Solved.
