**About the pull request**
Radial menu's replaced with TGUI window for all plumbing RCD's

**Why it's good for the game**

**1. Faster Navigation**
- Old System: It had 3 radial menus'
   ->To select type of device to build
   ->To select the colour of fluid ducts
   ->To select the layer of devices
3 menus for one system makes navigation between them annoying for e.g.:
to create a red fluid duct of layer 5 you have to open all these 3 menus
& cycling through the radial menu by clicking the next button is time
consuming when you have a large number of items
- New System: with just one window open it's as simple as 3 clicks and
your done just like the RPD

**2. Always available**
- Old System: When you select an option inside a radial menu the menu
closes so you have to reopen it again to change a setting
- New System: open the window drag it to the side and it will always be
there for you

**3. Just easier for our eyes**
- Old System: Moving my eyes in a circle across the menu only to find
out i have to click Next and circle my eyes again honestly makes my head
spin
- New System: The menu options are small enough to be viewed all at once
& helps me see what I need more easily

**4. Consistency**  
Both the RPD & plumbing all have similar concepts i.e., pipes, devices,
layers & colours it only makes sense they should have similar
interfaces. Also categorizing the items into tabs can help with
explaining what each item does

**Conclusion**
Just because the radial menu looks attractive shouldn't mean it must be
used everywhere, it only makes sense to use it when the number of
options of an item is small enough to be displayed on the screen all at
once for e.g., modules in a Mod suit. If the user has to click the next
button to cycle through the item's, it defeats the purpose of the radial
menu and makes the user work more to find his settings

**Side Note :** removed unused code in RapidPipeDispenser.js
