Description
This is an experimental and simplicistic fluid transportation system between containers.
It's a standalone version of the one available in Rockhounding Chemistry with its own updates eventually. It's been extracted mainly for my personal pack convenience when not requiring deeper tech mods.
The two versions are not compatible, will not connect eachother.
Known Issues
Due to lack of strong coding skills this mod may not perform well on servers because of lag and sync issues when extensively used. It should run fine though for single players. I'm sorry about it.

Scheme
Fluids travel between a pump and a valve, with or without a line of ducts. Both can be configured to choose the open sides and filters by right clicking them with bare hands.
Some functions can be set with the use of the Mod Wrench.
Ducts can be barred by using the wrench on them, turning to red and interrupting the line. Interacting again will open the duct.
Pump
The Pump takes the fluids sequentially from each open side trying to displace them where possible..
Using a Compressor item on the Pump block is possible to increase the amount of fluid transfered.
Using the wrench on the Pump is possible to increase/decrease the pump ticking, creating a delay between each transfering
Valve
The Valve delivers the fluid/s on the containers attached to each open side. The round robin switch will equally share the fluid through the connected containers.
Each side can be filtered by using on the filter slots the Sampling Ampule after grabbing a fluid from the Fluidpedia
Fluidpedia
In this block is possible to grab the fluid to set the filter in the valve. Use a Sampling ampoule on any of the available fluids to pick it. The ampoule tooltip will show the sampled fluid.
