Remove flowing fluids from forge tags
JaisDK opened this issue ยท 7 comments
Both honey and milk fluid has their flowing variants added to their respective forge fluid tag. This messes up recipes and functionality in other mods as the flowing variants cannot be used correctly in pipes or for filling containers.
There's hardly any chance of mods adding their own water or lava fluids. The problem with modded fluids is that several mods can and will add the same. Having a tag is what prevents problems with mod compatibility and allows you to use the fluid as an output for recipes. With the flowing fluid added, the recipes break.
Looking to vanilla is not always the best solution.
Can you share a specific instance of this problem?
If not having flowing fluids included in the tag is the general practice, we will have to report it to Registrate, which is what we use to assign tags to fluids.
I don't know if it's the general practice and maybe I'm the only one with the problem :) I have a mod with centrifuge recipes for honeycombs and the combs can output fluids like milk https://github.com/JDKDigital/productive-bees/blob/master/src/main/resources/data/productivebees/recipes/centrifuge/honeycomb_milky_fluid.json
Looking at Mekanism I can see that they also include the flowing fluid in the tag, so I guess it's general practice to include it.
I suppose I should change my code so it excludes flowing fluids as possible outputs instead.
I would still like a chocolate and tea fluid tag though :)
