Art of Alchemy

Art of Alchemy 0.3 adds essentia networks to the game! This allows you to automate the transport of essentia between your machines in a much easier fashion than fiddling with vessels, dispensers, and hoppers. Use Essentia Conduits (crafted from gold, basalt, and azoth) to build the network, and then connect it to machines using Essentia Ports. There are three types of Essentia Ports: passive, pressurized, and evacuated. Passive ports (the default kind, in purple) allow essentia to be both inserted and extracted, but only by other elements of the network - it won't do anything on its own. Pressurized ports (in orange) extract essentia from a block (like a Dissolution Chamber) and inject it into the network. Evacuated ports (in blue) extract essentia from the network and inject it into a block (like a Synthesis Table). To add a port to a network, just use one on a conduit. If you use a conduit's side without a port in your hand, that side will switch to blocked mode and not connect to other pipes. Using a side that has a port or blocker on it will remove it.
