About Pipe Tuner
From ficsit.appTune hidden Pipeline variables to improve fluid dynamics.
This mod does NOT increase flow rates or provide pipe rates greater than 600m³/min in any way
Settings that can be adjusted by this mod are found in Mod Savegame Settings in the pause menu.
Its recommended to pick the "Hydrostatic" preset.
Hydrostatic mode reduces pipe slosh and makes using 600/min pipes easier. Alos makes "bottom-feeding" more viable.
Explanation for variables:
Density: Affects pipe pressure gained from height and fluid velocity. Ideally between 0.65 and 0.1
Friction: Reduces the total pressure slightly.Ideally between 0.1 and 0.2
Gravity: Affects how much pressure is gained from height. Ideally greater than 9.8
Viscosity: Reduces the rate of change for flowrate. Ideally at 1.
Mk.1 Pipe Volume Multiplier: Set Mk. 1 Pipe volume. Do not set values smaller than 1. Ideally between 1 and 2.
Mk.2 Pipe Volume Multiplier: Set Mk. 2 Pipe volume. Do not set values smaller than 1. Ideally between 1 and 2.
Overfill Percentage: The amount that pipes are allowed to overfill. Used to generate pressure. Ideally between 40% and 60%.
Overfill for Pressure Percent: The amount of overfill that affects pressure. Ideally between 50% and 90%
Pressure Loss Percent: A small damping factor that reduces pressure from pipeline pumps and gravity. Ideally not smaller than 95%
Pump Traversal Distance: The distance the head lift hologram ring will travel. Higher values mean the pump displays the ring over greater distances.
Pipe Junction Recursions: The amount of junctions the pump head lift hologram can pass over. Values greater than 6 not recommended due to likely performance impact. Static ring also affected. Increase at your own risk.
Pump Offset Estimation Count: The amount of divisions done to estimate where pump headlift ends. Higher number = higher accuracy.
Big credit to McGalleon for the idea, most of the testing, and reminding SirDigby to keep working on this (repeatedly)
Indifferent Broccoli provides the server I use to test Dedicated Server mod support, and I highly recommend them. If you're looking to host your own Satisfactory server , try indifferent broccoli's 2-day free trial.
