One-piped engine concept

Description
So, I had one weird thought for some time, can I use only one pipe to transfer everything the engine needs.
The answer is yes, kinda.

This abomination actually works, press a red button (throttle on the engine is already set to 1), take a seat and watch it work. To prove that this works, there is a generator hooked up to the build, that actually generates some electricity, that is seen on the white dial in front of the seat.

Pipes connected to the "inputs and outputs" using filters and flow directors, so nothing gets where it is not supposed to be (considering the context of everything going through same pipeline).

I actually clamped power of the engine, so it won't starve of anything (and I might have been lazy to test the maximum of this not reasonable setup).

In the seat there is actually buttons to turn on pumps for some of the resources (only air button is not hooked up, I had to automate air pump, because engine kept starving for air), so you can ruin/improve/play with the balance of the stuff.

P.S. Telemetry update was great
P.P.S. Engine dies on fuel or air equal to -10
P.P.P.S. Thanks again to AndreasXP for his engine controller
