It would be great to have different types of pipes to move liquids. Sort of make it function the way a train track would function except there would be a gate that lets water through one way where there is a cross section between pipes and the direction can be changed with wiring and such.

there should also be pipes that transport items and such. And stuff that automatically mines which would then transport it to a chest via pipes
I love the idea, and in fact I suggested to the devs (I think it was bartwe) during one of the earlier Q&a sessions, and he said he didn't see the point, with pumps already being in the game, and pipes can be built out of blocks. I still hope they add it for the aesthetic though, like I said, it was a while ago.
I think they could do more with it like have different colored pipes that can cross each other, or have different types of pumps and different pressure for them. Maybe even be able to push and pull air which would make it able to push and pull players/monsters
I think that teleporters or transporters for the items would be more fitting. Since it is more sci-fi. But some super cool pipes would be cool aswell.
What, pneumatic tubes not sci-fi enough for you? On topic, I recall several threads about various types of pipes, I even wrote one on how they could operate like wires and would work well with an auto crafting system.
Idk, the pumps just seem so unusual. I guess you could use pipes as tier 1 liquid transporter and teleporters as tier 2 liquid transporters!
Hey, check out my suggestion about fluids, pipes, tanks, etc. http://community.playstarbound.com/index.php?threads/water-and-sewage-system.19883/#post-797386 Also, if you like my idea, support it by voting
I plan on making a submerged base sorta thing, but it would be awesome if I could pump out all the water so my friends could come in. Then I could drown them to death afterward.
Having placeable pipes for moving liquids would at least let us walk past them and move liquids through bases/buildings without necessarily cutting them in half.
Yesss. I really want to have this in game instead of there being a mod. Also... This could help with pressure systems. Like you could have the room your friend is in suddenly have water blasted out of the pump and the room is full of high density water.
