⚙️ 1. Dynamic Mechanical Systems & Realistic Fluid Physics

Every storage tank is a living industrial machine with tick-synchronized animations reactive to fluid volume, state of matter, flow rate, temperature, and electrical power:

💧 Incompressible Liquids vs Pressurized Gases

The engine features decoupled realistic physical rendering tailored specifically to the fluid's state of matter:

• Liquid Mechanics (Water, Crude Oil, Acids, Lubricant):
• Pixel-Calibrated Meniscus: Liquid level perfectly aligned pixel-by-pixel with the 0%–100% stamped stencil marks.
• Dynamic Surface Wave Dynamics: Multi-frame oscillating surface waves with fluid-specific opacity and viscosity.
• Active Transfer Stream & Impact Splash: A falling inlet jet stream and an authentic fluid splash crown at the point of impact.
• Thermal Bubble Ebullition: Real-time rising bubbles scaling in frequency and velocity with liquid temperature.
• Gas & Steam Mechanics (Petroleum Gas, High-Temp Steam, Fluoroketone):
• Volumetric Pressure Chamber: Dense pressurized vapor chamber filling the tank interior without a liquid meniscus.
• Continuous Gas Flow Stream: Gaseous transfer streams and condensation dynamics during active pumping.
• Smart Mechanical Pump: Wall-mounted animated pump that rotates in real-time (16 FPS) while fluid level is changing.
• Extensible Roof Hose: The hose automatically extends and docks to the roof when fluid arrives, featuring a pulsing yellow hydraulic bellows dampener, and retracts back to rest if the tank stays empty for 2 seconds.
• Structural Concrete Foundation & Corner Night Lights: Heavy reinforced concrete pad (15x15 tiles for 1M, 5x5 tiles for 100k) with integrated electrical distribution and 4 perimeter corner lights for automatic night illumination without external wiring.
• Roof Safety Relief Valve: Mechanical hammer-action pressure vent with manual red isolation handle and dynamic escape plume.

🛠️ 2. Realistic Triple-Axis Cumulative Wear & Aging Engine

Tanks feature an authentic industrial lifecycle where operational fatigue, environmental exposure, and enemy combat damage are tracked on three completely independent visual axes:

🔹 Axis A: Pumping Fatigue & Operational Wear

Measured strictly by total pumped volume (capped at 50,000,000 L for the 15x15 Big Tank / 5,000,000 L for the 5x5 Large Tank):

• Stage 0 (0 to 4M L — Grace Period): Pristine factory operation. Filling and emptying the tank twice produces zero wear.
• Stage 1 (4M to 18M L — Heat Fatigue): Early thermal discolorations and subtle exhaust soot around the top vents.
• Stage 2 (18M to 34M L — Heavy Grease): Sustained industrial workload producing dark lubricant streaks and seam grime.
• Stage 3 (34M to 50M L — Baked Carbon): Permanent baked carbon soot. Locks at maximum Stage 3 until serviced.

---

🔹 Axis B: Abandonment & Environmental Weathering

Measured in game day/night cycles (1 day = 25,000 ticks). Halts and resets as soon as fluid flows:

• Stage 0 (Days 0 to 30 — Grace Period): Heavy industrial enamel provides 30 full days of zero environmental degradation.
• Stage 1 (Days 30 to 60 — Specular Loss): Moisture exposure dulls the metallic gloss and introduces light surface oxidation.
• Stage 2 (Days 60 to 80 — Dense Rust): Evident neglect with flaking paint, oxide streaks, and atmospheric patina.
• Stage 3 (Day 90+ — Severe Corrosion): Deep industrial corrosion, pitting, and stagnant organic weathering.

---

🔹 Axis C: Combat Damage & Biter Attacks

Directly tracks entity health (HP), strictly decoupled from pumping wear:

• 100% to 85% HP (Intact Armor): Heavy ballistic alloy absorbs early impacts with no surface deformation.
• 85% to 55% HP (Stage 1): Deep physical gouges from biter claws and jaw strike indentations.
• 55% to 25% HP (Stage 2): Chemical erosion from spitter acid splashes combined with ripped hull plating.
• < 25% HP (Stage 3 — Critical Failure): Severe structural breaches, deformed braces, and pressurized vapor leaks.
• 0% HP (Collapse & Remnants): Permanent tank wreckage remains on the concrete foundation pad.
