Is brewing acid working as intended ??? BUG ?

[Bernkastell]

Water pumps suck a lo of dirty water and only small ammount of polluted water. Doesn't matter where I put my pump in water or on dirt. Small pump (that only for transport water) can't push water up. Impure acid don't flow into the brewing barrel.(And I see a lot of "video guides" where guys using just pypes and there sainf it's fully automated acid making).

And this problems was before 1st August pacth.

What is working as intended and what is broken rn ?

Pollution zones with only single digit pollution rates will spit out dirty and polluted water.
Go to a higher level pollution zone and you'll get just polluted water.
Unless they changed something, you can't fully automate acid production that way. You have to manually transfer the impure acid into the brewing barrels.

The Pump now make first Run Pulled Water second run Dirty Water regardless where you place the Pump not sure why they nerf that it was the longest way to get Acid and for sure not OP to be need of a Nerv now we get the same Problem as with Wood and other Stuff that you dont need at some Point we have an heavy over Production of Water

dont pump from Water sources, place the pumps on normal ground for polluted water only.

This was going to be my next piece of advice.
Barring that, then it must really be a bug.
Though, I've not heard anyone on my server complain about it. So, I'm going with player error on this one. Move your pumps out of standing water.

skill issue, read before posting. Works fine for me, however it is pointless, since running around killing on deviated chops nets so much acid, the pittance the barrels give is pointless. They need to up the amount you get from barrels substantially to really be worth it.

Same with refining crude into mixed fuel. It takes far too long to produce 5 mixed fuel from 10 crude. I have 6 refineries going and that's only 30 mixed fuel PER HOUR.
That's insane.

I mean that sounds fairly good to me. I can just sleep and do other stuff for 12 hours and come back to enough mixed fuel to make 1,200 stardust.

I honestly rather run around and kill stuff or find accessories or crates to get stardust and acid. I am swimming in both. Over 8000 Stardust and 7k acid without any fuel/barrels.,
