Impure Acid doesn't flow into my brewing barrel

[JeanDeaux]

I've been playing with this setup for DAYS!!! I see my neighbors have this same setup and I've watched many a YouTube on this, but my Impure Acid will just not flow from my storage container into the barrel. I have to always manually transfer the items.

What the heck do I need to do for this to work?

My impure acid never flowed into barrels, only pure water.

You always had to manually put the acid in the barrel lol.

I guess I just didn't understand all those passive acid farming videos then.
(And makes no intuitive sense for the acid to stop flowing at that stage).

Not 100% sure when they're going to update it, tho it was posted they plan on making the hose transfer all types of liquids, currently I guess the code is only for water, they did mention it will become a "general" type in some future update, then it should work.

It's so unintuitive that you have to do it manually, especially when Impure Acid can be pumped from the Purifier into your Water Tank via pipes (which implies it's not a type of fluid issue). And then, you also can't pump Acid from the Barrel to the Water Tank, even though you can store Acid in your Tank?? The Barrel's visual even seems to suggest an intake and outtake (like the Water Tanks do where you can connect a pipe on the top to pour things in, and then a pipe on the bottom to naturally pour them out, which I recently discovered btw)

Also, you can daisy chain pipes in Water Pumps [production] (as you do with wires) but then only the last one will pump out its Polluted Water? What's the point of chaining them then?

And since we're at it, why are two different facilities called Water Pump??

I'm fairly new to the game, and it has been wrecking my brain.

I can't even put the impure acid in the barrels I don't know why
