some bad pipe ideas:

  • light pipes (including "pumps" and "vents")
  • decor pipes (pumps positive or negative areas into packets, "decor vacuum" is neutral)
  • radbolt vents that take in radbolts and spew out radiation accordingly

what exactly do decor pipes work in your idea

Pumping decor is a fascinating way of putting it

#

What you’re describing is a live feed

#

Of like a painting, or a potted plant

Decor as a substance is a fun idea.

@rugged hamlet you are made of smart ideas. What would decor pipes even look like?

#

honestly I think decor mirrors would make more sense than decor pipes

rugged hamlet
#

oh you meant like a pipe literally moving decor around, and not a decorful pipe

#

yeah that's... not happening :'>

@versed falcon question about your brilliant bulbs mod. Have you messed with mercury lights to have a “light pipe” like this mod idea suggests? Something like moulding that lights up, and requires pumped in mercury to work.

#

Ofc this wouldn’t be actual piping conduit but it could look like pipes and require pumping/pumped mercury to work

#

That's not what they suggested though. They want to move light around like a substance ThisIsFine

#

Brilliant Bulbs is just Light Pack 1 too, something mercury or liquid based is grounds for a Light Pack 2, ...or 5

I for one look forward to light pack 2: mercury on the brain

I think decor mirrors would be excellent in theory but idk if it would involve a ridiculous amount of computation

How about transparent pipes glowing red with magma, lavender with mercury, yellow with petroleum

#

Frankly it does sound like a mod I would play. Extra decor from glass? pipes filled with magma all over my base
