-The Flow Controller uses a simple array of Force Emitters to accelerate the Creep median into a specific direction. This can work even with the controller not submerged by accelerating the air particles and a create wind current which can move shallow Creep. If this is being used in space, well then nanites are used with a swapped version of the Flow Controller which looks identical for sake of consistency.\\+The Flow Controller uses a simple array of Force Emitters to accelerate the Creep median into a specific direction.

On mesh, which increases Creeper flow on terrain, a Flow Controller is able to direct the Creeper so quickly, it does not build up into a mountain of Creep. If you are having flow problems, you can use Flow Controllers to enhance the flow of Creep throughout the map if the [[cw4:cmod:docs:9374ef02-1ef9-43ff-b379-9a92aa79baa9|Egg Fabricator]] is not preferred in favor of consistent flow.   * 'Pushes' Creeper in a specific direction.

 Remember, the Flow Controller is not weaker in push force in VPAC than in PAC. The only difference is that it can't push Anti-Creeper in VPAC. Remember, the Flow Controller is not weaker in push force in VPAC than in PAC. The only difference is that it can't push Anti-Creeper in VPAC.
  
-By far one of the strongest combos ever is a Flow Controller pushing into 2 [[cw4:cmod:docs:d476c68d-631d-450c-8e7f-81e5e9da8dda|Emitter Bases]] with a [[cw4:cmod:docs:4576bde4-8fe7-4c6f-bdd2-68f6782a652e|Crimsonator]] in front of the flow direction beside the Emitters. This combo was so strong, it is the sole reason the Flow Controller has increased Power Use compared to PAC. It is still powerful but requires investment (in this example, it would be power) but never forget, the combo itself wasn't nerfed, it was just made harder to execute conveniently.+By far one of the strongest combos ever is a Flow Controller pushing into 2 [[cw4:cmod:docs:d476c68d-631d-450c-8e7f-81e5e9da8dda|Emitter Bases]] with a [[cw4:cmod:docs:4576bde4-8fe7-4c6f-bdd2-68f6782a652e|Crimsonator]] in front of the flow direction beside the Emitters.
