Bulk Fermenters still require at least 2 heat sources despite note in change log

So we've got two modpacks in our community that both include Create Diesel Generators. One is running in MC 1.20.1 and the other in 1.21.1.

Both are using v1.3.5 of Create Diesel Generators.

In our testing, particularly with custom recipes to be fair, it appears that heated recipes do not work at all if the bulk fermenter is not at least 2x2 (eg 1 block buik fermenters, or buik fermenter "towers" only one block wide will not produce any recipe that requires heat), and with a fermenter that is 2x2 at the base and of any height, at LEAST two burners must be placed underneath and lit in order for recipes requiring heat to proceed.

I knew you'd said you fixed this George so I initially argued with my players who raised this issue, but in my own testing: they're right it's not working right.

I didn't test with 3x3 fermenters.

Thanks for reading. 🙂

is that for custom recipes only? I'm currently testing and it works just fine with 1 burner, both for superheated and heated, and 1x1 fermenters work to

I will set up a test and double check tonight. From memory, I think lava is the only “vanilla” heated recipe?

In any case give me a few hours and I will respond definitively on that!!

OK sorry for the wait, been at work all day. 😅

So I have more nuanced information than previously. It will work with one burner for cobblestone lava (built in recipe) or a custom recipe but ONLY if you use a blaze cake to superheat the blaze burner.

If I use a superheated blaze burner that is being superheated by other means (for example, Create Liquid Fuels using Biodiesel with the superHeat property set to “true”), then it requires at least two.

I’d expect super-heat to mean super-heat, but it seems like there’s a lot of wiggle room. I know you mentioned previously a hardcoded constraint on boilers with CDG Burners, is there something similar going on here?

I don’t know what the underlying Create API (if there is one) looks like here, so I’m not sure if this is a CDG thing, a Create thing, or a Liquid Fuels thing. The superheat property seems to be respected for boilers but not CDG fermenters unless we use two.

Hope this helps, and I hope I articulated this clearly…. happy to clarify and if I should be dropping issues in somebody else’s github I’d be happy to know!

Thanks George. 🙂
