[B42.17+] Water Pipes — Fully fixed

This is a fixed replacement version of the original [B42] Water Pipes mod. It restores functionality in Build 42.17 and improves support for existing saves. Unsubscribe from or disable the original mod before using this one. Running both versions simultaneously may cause duplicated files, broken menus, or multiplayer checksum issues.

Features:

• Water Pump menu restored: Turn On, Turn Off, Repair Pump, Add Charcoal Filter, and Pump Info options are available again.
• Valves restored: Open and Close options are functional.
• Flowmeters restored: Flowmeter Info is available again.
• Cleaner context menu: Pump actions are organized inside the Water Pump submenu instead of being scattered in the main right-click menu.

Existing Saves Support:

You do not need to pick up, rebuild, or replace already placed Water Pipes objects. Previously placed pipes, water pumps, valves, flowmeters, barrels, and sprinklers are automatically detected when their chunks load around the player. Simply load your save and visit the areas where your Water Pipes system is located. The mod will recover existing objects as the world loads.

How to Use:

1. Unsubscribe from or disable the original [B42] Water Pipes mod.
2. Enable this fixed version.
3. Load your save.
4. Visit the areas where your Water Pipes objects are placed.

Multiplayer Note:

For multiplayer servers, ensure both the server and all players use the same Workshop version of this fix. If players receive a «file doesn't match the one on the server» error, the server or client is using an outdated or different version of the mod.
