I am currently using the mod to make machines for oil processing, which involves having multiple fluid outputs. The issue I am running into is that it randomly chooses one of the multiple output hatches to place each fluid in. That becomes a real pain when trying to route each fluid to the next machine in the process. So my suggestion is either a way to specify the output hatch per each fluid output or if the machine could send each fluid output to the same output hatch it came out of last time.

Seems more like setting your machine up to have optional output hatch numbers instead would be better, but...

Hi there

As a possible solution for this matter could be that output hatches only output the specified fluid as determined by the position of the hatch: if the recipe consists on one fluid splitting into 3 different, the first one would be locked in the y=0, the next in y=1 and the last in y=2 (taking as reference y=0 the y position of the controller), as it has been locked when writing the recipe.

This idea might allow people building MM Distillation towers, as an example, where there are multiple output hatches.

You can already do this to a degree by specifying output volumes and using different sized output hatches.
