| The pipe-to-ground is a distribution method for [[Liquid network|liquids and gases]]. Since a basic [[pipe]] is impassable, these are necessary to keep the factory open, as well as to cross belt lines, or environmental features.
| |
|
| |
| Only one fluid can be inside a pipe-to-ground at one time. Trying to mix two fluids can destroy one of the fluids. Read more on [[Liquid network#Mechanics|liquid mechanics]]. These kind of pipes can even be placed between patches of water.

| == Notes ==
| |
| * The maximum distance at which a pipe to ground can connect is 10 squares, resulting in a gap of 9 squares in between.
| |
| * Pipe-to-ground stores less liquid than basic pipes.
| |
| * While pipe-to-ground is the developer name for the entity, the community has taken to simply referring to this entity as "underground pipe". This is the most common reference.
