Screw pump suggestion
« on: February 09, 2008, 03:04:00 am »
PLEASE change the light/dark square graphic of the screw pump to some kind of arrow or SOMETHING to indicate the water flow, its can't ever figure out which end the damn water will come out, then end up having to re-do all water projects because of it.

If there is SOME way to do this on my end, tell me.

Dark=impassable, water comes out the impassable end.  Otherwise it would backflow whenever you tried to pump manually.

I never noticed a difference. Just looks like two prepared meals adjacent to eachother.

My stray dogs often chase fire imps back into the magma pipe and then continue fighting while burning and drowning in the lava. Truly their loyalty knows no bounds, but perhaps it should.

It does tell you what direction the pump is pumping in your context window...
