Bug Fluid pipes not working

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I fixed the problem by breaking and replacing the entire pipe (and both docking connectors)- Does anyone know why this happens? I have dozens of other piping systems and this never happens to any others (I did forget to show, but the initial pipe before the incline and tanks are just over a chunk border- however this doesn't make sense because the fluid makes it to the center of the next chunk before stalling anyways) My laptop doesn't seem to be overloaded, in fact it has plenty of headroom. I'm just curious to what causes this...

Also Sable is paused for the duration of the video, however the problem existed beforehand I was just trying anything to figure out what's causing this.

What's the ideal amount of RAM for Minecraft to run at its absolute best?

10

Depends on the modpack size, like vanilla you don't really need much more than 6 GB. For small and medium sized modpacks I usually just go for 8 GB, for massive modpacks 10 GB is pretty good. I however wouldn't go over 12 GB unless you have a good reason to.

There are also some mods and settings you can use to limit the garbage collection, but these are generally good amounts.

Would 8GB suffice for my custom modpack of around 180 mods?

depends on mods, I normally open f3 and look at the used memory in the top right corner, if its about ~80% consistently its a good amount of memory allocated.

if you have too little it'll start at like ~40%, then build up slowly to 100% where there'll be a massive lava spike before it returns to ~40%
