FEATURE REQUEST: Liquid Siphons #11

Open InTheProcess opened 2 weeks ago

InTheProcess commented 2 weeks ago

I think it would be cool to have siphons for liquids. If you look up "Water Siphon," you will know what I mean. I think this would create an interesting game mechanic with liquids. This game mechanic allows players to store water until it reaches a certain level, at which point it all drains away.

an interesting idea but probably far too complex to implement efficiently

You are probably right. You would have to add surface tension and have water pressure be a thing. Maybe an optimization could be grouping bits of water together that behave as one water block. This could dynamically change in size depending on the flow rate. I think this optimization could help make the water a lot more efficient. What do you think?
