Thank you.

I'll have to experiment with some pressure plates to automate things.
I have been wondering whether a constant "on" signal (or "off" in the case of drawbridges and fluid) is generated by say 7/7 water on a plate set to 7/7.
Or will that signal be generated as soon as there is 7/7 water, tunring off 100 ticks (I believe it is) later?

Yes, a pp set to 7/7 liquid will remain 'on' until the liquid drops below that level.

You could also just do it manually. I prefer having manual control for those things rather than rely on pressure plates. I just don't trust pressure plates for some reason.

I think filling a large cistern would be better done manually.
However, I feel it's my duty to set up some needlessly complicated automatic system involving magma.
