--------- ---------
2017-09-27 (thetaepsilon)
Start of new flow logic re-implementation.
This mode is current *very* incomplete, and requires a per-world setting to enable.
Adds a pressure value stored in all pipe node metadata, and a mechanism to balance it out with nearby nodes on ABM trigger.
Currently, this inhibits the old behaviour when enabled, and (again WHEN ENABLED) breaks pretty much everything but normal pipes, spigots and pumps.
For this reason it is far from being intended as the default for some time to come yet.
What *does* work:
+ Pumps will try to take in water (and removes it!) as long as internal pressure does not exceed a threshold.
- a TODO is to make this pressure threshold configurable.
+ Pipes will balance this pressure between themselves, and will slowly average out over time.
+ Spigots will try to make the node beneath them a water source if the pressure is great enough and the existing node is flowing water or air.
- This is admittedly of fairly limited use with default water mechanics; those looking for more realistic mechanics might want to look at the dynamic_liquid mod, though that mod comes with it's own caveats (most notably drastic changes to previous worlds...).
What *does not* work:
+ Flow sensors, valves. Valves in particular currently do not function as a barrier to water's path under the experimental logic.
- TODO: internal code to allow this to be overriden.
*seems this hasn't been updated in a while*
