for some reason in 1.12 when you try and pump oil in the ocean you get the top layer of oil and then water covers the oil and you get water. this wasnt an issue in 1.7.10

can confirm this issue. Picking up water and causing lag issues on servers

The pump should only pick up the first fluid it picks up until it is broken and replaced.

That would make the most sense, but how it's working now makes sense as well. If the goal is to pick up whatever it touches, it would be an inconvenience to break it and replace it. However, allowing it to pick up anything breaks the ocean oil deposits as just mentioned. In my opinion, both mechanics should be fixed. The pump should not have to be broken and replaced to pick up another liquid, and the broken ocean oil deposits should be patched.

Wrack it with a wrench to switch its mode. Last Fluid or any fluid.
