i more liquid inputs\outputs [ON HOLD]

Hello, it's me again. Can you add 2 more inputs/outputs for connecting pipes, now the tank has only 2 inputs/outputs for liquid, which may not always be convenient. Sometimes it is necessary to connect the tank to the pipeline and continue the pipe in the same direction from which it came. I do not know how to express my thought more precisely, since, unfortunately, there is no way to post pictures here, and I do not know if it is allowed to post links to pictures here. The inputs/outputs of the tank have the shape of ┘ (corner), if you change it to Ʇ, you will implement what I would like to ask you about. I do not insist if this breaks your idea, but it will add convenience to your mod in some situations. Also, if you decide to fulfill my request, I do not require its immediate implementation ... I understand perfectly well that there is not always time for everything. Thank you!

While I was writing and editing this text, I got the idea that someone might already be using this mod and have set up a pipe so that if you suddenly add 2 more liquid inputs/outputs, it could break their current pipe system... but I don't think it's necessary to add another liquid storage. Although Factoro is a game about how to solve problems with pipes and factories and transport belts. Underground transport belts often create problems for me because I don't always notice that I accidentally switched them the wrong way.

Hello again Mr. Evil! :-) Yeah, it's true, the storage tank really doesn't have the most convenient kind of pipe connections. I have already thought about adding another variant, just like I did with the Tiny Storage Tank, but I'm still not sure what kind of addition would work out best overall, and I really want it to be just one, of the neat variety. Perhaps the greater problem is that I am not at all sure I can adapt the existing assets to create decent graphics for it. In any case, the idea is currently on the back-burner, because I don't feel I have the time and energy for it and it's not quite important enough to me, at least not right now.

Anyway, thank you for your thoughts! I may get back to this at some point.
