Pipe Problem

[strawberrygirl]

Is there any reason why I cannot connect these pipes to the main line? Every time I do, the water stops pumping.  Seems like any point where there is a pipe going in 3 directions its not working but there is one other place in my base it works just fine.  I'm not trying to attach both, was just trying to make at least one of them work but both have the same result.. the water stops.   Can't have that because its feeding my oxidizers.

Please see attached.

The issue you have is that you add a loop, which confuses the pipe logic into no longer knowing in which direction the packets should flow.

Use pipe bridges (which break up the pipe for the code into smaller, individual segments) to force the packets in the direction you want them to go.

put a valve or a bridge from the main pipe to the extension
