Screw Pump Bug ?
« on: October 31, 2007, 03:42:00 pm »

(Ok right. My apologies if this has already been brought up.)  I'm slightly confused about screw pumps.  Either: there's a typo somewhere, or I'm doing something completly strange.  Personally, I think this could be a bug.

I've made a series of rooms, with screw pumps in them.  The text says: "Pumps from the East", which is on the right, yes?  So I assume this means: it will take water from the right hand side, and plonk it over on the left. (It should be going from the East to the West).

The various pumps have plenty of power, they are all Active, I've bashed about with the "Enter: Start Pump Manually" button, but still the pumps don't seem to want to work for me.  

I've uploaded my save file to here.  Feel free to have a peek.

If however, it turns out that I really am doing something dumb, let me know and I'll go hang my head in shame.

Better get your head a-hangin'.  Not only has this question been thoroughly discussed, it's even described on the wiki.

Geez, that took like 4 seconds to find.
