[Bug]: Pipez disconnecting from some mekanism multiblocks on game launch.

What happened?

Every time I seem to join my world the fluid pipe from Pipez that I have connected to the side of my Thermal Evaporation multiblock disconnects on the extract side and pops any upgrade I have in it out. I noticed it's happening because the mekanism multiblocks seems to unform when you join back to the world so it's not registered as a valid output for the machine. So the pipe is just detaching until the multiblock reforms. It's just a pain because I forget to reconnect it sometimes and it just messes up my whole Fission setup.

this is a known issue between Pipez and Mekanism, when multi-blocks unload especially across chunk boundaries, they revert to individual blocks which are incompatible to Pipez end connections.

Hum, I think it's a little more specific than that. I use extensively pipez gaz pipe for all mekanism machinerie for fossile fuel and ore treatment to avoid "buffer" with mekanism pipe (just too much of inventory to setup to reach a point where I can know how much I can use in the fission reactor) and I did a couple of observation:

• All broken pipez where extracting (so, if it get the issue on the input, it "fix" itself later) and are now input
• Sink is one of those who broke (I presume something about the infinite value that also break refine storage on external storage)
• The broken one where the extracting from empty quantum only (can't tell for the machinery)
• I'm pretty sure I saw it happen with Extreme reactor too.

My tought:

• If it's pipez : it's trying to read if it can connect and in the loading process it can or get an error from the quantum when it's empty. Mekanims has a particular way to work for output/input.
• I'm actually switching some with ender io chemical conduit to see if they get the same issue.
• Async init on some info from mekanism for performance ?
