Resource Well Pressurizer

The Resource Well Pressurizer is a late game building used for pressurizing a Resource Well. Fluid resources can be extracted from the satellite nodes by building Resource Well Extractors on them. Pipelines can be connected to the extractors to transport out the extracted fluids.

Construction
To extract resources from a Resource Well a Resource Well Pressurizer must first be placed on the large, central node and connected to power. Afterwards the smaller satellite nodes can be exploited by placing Resource Well Extractors on them. They do not need to be powered individually, and overclocking is handled at the Resource Well Pressurizer and applies to all connected Resource Well Extractors. The Resource Well Pressurizer can be placed on foundations which cover a Resource Well. Resource Well Extractors do not currently have a hitbox so can be placed through anything and anything can be placed on top of them.

Extraction
Resource Well Pressurizers and Extractors can be used to extract Crude Oil, Water, or Nitrogen Gas. The total flowrate of all the satellite nodes is shown in the UI of the Resource Well Pressurizer. Each Resource Well contains a different number of satellite nodes with different combinations of purities.

Overclocking
The Resource Well Pressurizer can be overclocked using Power Shards. Overclocking the Pressurizer increases the potential of the Resource Well, which affects the flow rate of all attached satellite nodes, at the cost of greatly increased power demand proportional to output.

Head lift
A Resource Well Extractor provides a head lift of 10 meters, measured from the center of its pipe outlet.
