I hate liquids. Is there a simple understanding? (lemm.ee)

I cannot, for the life of me, understand liquids. If something says 10m head lift, that means it can go up 10m, right? RIGHT? it doesn't. It stalls on a 4m foundation. I'm so frustrated. I shove pumps everywhere and still nothing works. I even have 2 pipes next to each other but one works and the other doesn't! ARRRGGHHHH

I'm JUUUUUUUUUST about to package everything and conveyor belt it.

Both ceiling and wall sockets can cause pipeline flow bugs

I wonder if this is why my blueprinted refineries don't output until I remove/replace the output lines. I don't have any floor or wall holes in the finished blueprint, but I used both to align things when creating it.

I'd suspect so. I've gotten in the habit of aggressively using stackable pipeline supports for all alignment and making good use of horizontal to vertical pipe layouts for aligning floor entry points.
