One of my favorite features of OpenBlocks, if not THE main reason i use it...however the texture (or lackthereof) is...how to put it? underwhelming? would it be possible to assign a texture (i would suggest Tinkers Constructs's White stained glass) to the outer walls of tanks? and adding 1px spaced lines to the edges next to the thick black border.

oh and while you're at it, it would be awesome to have an "interface panel": a simple microblock 1/8 thick (like covers or modems) that would detect and expose total connected tank capacity and current combined level that would interface with other mods (like openperipherals,opensensors,waila,BC gates etc) for monitoring purposes so it is possible to trigger an event based on total level.

the interface panel wouldn't need to update every tick...once per second or five should suffice. for basic functionality, querying the current tank block connected to the pipe/duct/etc should be more than enough. and they can function with or without the panel. this way we can preserve the tanks that we all know and love...with a dash of awesome

This goes along with a Tank Rewrite really.

Tanks will be rewritten anyway. Closing.
