Long distance fluid pipes do not work as expected.
Expected behavior:
LD endpoint should have arrows pointing towards the direction of fluid flow. Fluid should flow from output hatch on a fluid drilling multiblock to a container attached to an LD endpoint over 50 blocks away from the first LD endpoint.

Observed behavior:
Arrows indicate the opposite of input/output direction expected. Fluid will not flow from an output hatch to the other end.

Workaround: adding a single regular fluid pipe between the output hatch and the LD endpoint resolved the issue, although it required flipping the input/outputs with a wrench to update the blocks and get them working.

Was testing with this in creative and found it most consistently works if you place the source and destination blocks in the same cardinal direction with a pipe on either end. It's definitely buggy as it stands, and I find whenever I get it working in survival I don't touch it again 😅
