Do not allow multipipes to connect to other pipes (ie, 1x to 4x).
Force connections to require a new "valve router" block to choose which pipe on the input side goes to the output side. Valve router block will have internal storage based on tier. This way input and output pipe networks do not have to see each other.
Use wrench to determine which pipe networks to connect when merging. How to implement multi-multi merge?
When merging multipipes of similar size, networks are merged directly, ie network1.pipe0 + network2.pipe0 => add network2 to network1
Basic gui brainstorming
Wrenching valve to change direction -> texture should show direction
Valve to determine input pipe size and output pipe size and put up appropriate GUI
Implement multipipes using world networks.
