Off screen mechanisms

[Tyro]

I know a lot of stuff doesn't update properly if there isn't a player within ~2 screens (IIRC). Fluid dynamics in particular do strange things if nobody has eyes on the liquid in question. Is it possible to set up a block synthesizer (a mechanism which creates compound blocks like obsidian, crispy honey, etc. by pumping liquids into two connected tanks) hooked up to a duper many screens away without running short on materials due to the duper not functioning? Or am I just overthinking this?

I am unsure but I know It would work if you went back and forth between the 2 (teleporters, hoiks, conveyers, player intervention, etc)
