Second hydroponic farm in a line breaks irrigation for following farms

Ah so not only me. I had this happen with a farm I made and had to make the pipe with individual branches (waste of space) but had to be done.

Yeah, pipes don't like going straight through that many inputs. Build like this:

I do wish that would be changed though, but it's currently just how pipes work.

OH, I have a mental block when it comes to bridges in this game, but you could also do it like this lol. Just note that the bridges give priority on the line.

Yeah this is a problem.

Especially with the need to branch, it makes for really bad thermals for sleet wheat when you have to try to pipe water that won't freeze.
Seems like this is a problem with pipe "exit" dynamics rather than the hydroponics though since it seems like the game will try to block the pipe at the first exit, rather than try to pass the excess on to the next "exit" segment.
