b [addressed][2.0.72] Don't work for me :/

Hi,
Looking to improve Vulcanus (which I find too simple), I came across this mod that I really liked.

I started a sandbox game to test it out quickly. The Heat-resistant Pipes are there and they don't connect to normal pipes, pumps, or tanks as expected, and molten metals can flow in them.
But if I connect a normal pipe to the output of a refinery, the molten metal will flow into it and may enter a pump or a tank. That shouldn't happen, should it?

Yes that is currently true however it is pointless, as you cannot connect those normal pipes with molten metals to the inputs of foundries.
I am working on a new system to improve this though.

Oh, that's right!
Sorry, I hadn't noticed that.
Thank you for your prompt reply and for this mod.

I am working on a new system to improve this though.

That would be great indeed :)
To bring consistency

How about make regular pipes/pumps/tanks carrying liquid metals explode? Similar to https://mods.factorio.com/mod/call-plumber

Implemented a new system indeed inspired by call a plumber mod
