After much difficulty figuring out how stupid fluids work -- they seem a little overly complicated?!? -- I believe I have a pretty clean implementation for applesauce.
First of all, the fluid is only really available when the Create and Create Central Kitchen mods are present, for two reasons:
All of the recipes require Create tools (such as mixing, emptying, etc).
I've removed the fluid from JEI similar to Create's Melon Juice, Apple Cider, etc. In other words, it's a "recipe-only fluid" that doesn't have a bucket or a block.
Here's a shot of JEI looking for "applesauce":
Only the food item is present. Moreover, only the standard cooking recipe is available:
However, if you uncomment these lines in build.gradle, you can see the fluid in action:
// These are helpful when testing Create interoperability.
// runtimeOnly fg.deobf("curse.maven:create-328085:4835191")
// runtimeOnly fg.deobf("curse.maven:create-central-kitchen-820977:5132704")
Now we have a new way to create applesauce bowls:
And we have ways of creating the fluid from the bowl:
As well as a few recipes that can be made directly with the fluid:
Here's a shot of the fluid traveling through a pipe after being emptied:
And here it is in a big vat:
(It's hard to see there, but it is slightly translucent.)
Let me know what you think -- here or on Discord -- and please don't hesitate to suggest even the smallest changes!
