Definition of a pipe connection. Used by Types/FluidBox.

Mandatory properties

Either position or positions must be specified. (position takes priority)

position

Type: Types/vector

Where pipes can connect to this fluidbox regardless the directions of entity.

positions

Type: Types/table of Types/vector

Where pipes can connect to this fluidbox, depending on the entity direction.

Table must have 4 members, which are 4 explicit positions corresponding to the 4 directions of entity. Positions must correspond to directions going one after another.

Optional properties

max_underground_distance

Type: Types/uint32

Default: 0

0 means not underground.

type

Type: Types/string

Default: "input-output"

Possible values:

  • "input"
  • "input-output"
  • "output"
