Statuslights for Containers

Watching Snutt's stream, I seen him running around looking after his storage containers if full or not or what ever.

I guess he is not the only one doing that, as I do the same all the time. So why not adding status lights to the containers:

  • Green - Container is empty
  • Yellow - Container is filling
  • Purple - Container is emptying
  • Red - Container is full

Actually i purpose using some sort of screens on the containers to further clarify this:

green circle - Container is empty
yellow arrow pointing up - Container is filling
purple arrow pointing down - Container is emptying
red triangle  - Container is full

one potential problem is when output speed is similar to input speed. Not sure how it is best dealt with.

Maybe no emptying and filling status just Empty/In-Operation/Full

Green - Empty
Yellow - In-Operation
Red - Full
