I want to change which liquids are "infinite" (like water is in vanilla). I see that in net.minecraft.block.BlockDynamicLiquid, the updateTick method includes the line "if (this.adjacentSourceBlocks >= 2 && this.blockMaterial == Material.WATER)", which seems to be how this is controlled. My question is the best way to change this behavior. Should I subclass BlockDynamicLiquid and try to replace all uses of it? Should I use coremod/ASM to change that to do something like "if (this.adjacentSourceBlocks >= 2 && someFunctionInMyMod(this, worldIn, pos, state))"?

I ended up doing this as a coremod. Since I'm new to coremodding, can someone take a look at https://github.com/josephcsible/InfiniteFluids/blob/1.10.2/src/main/java/josephcsible/infinitefluids/InfiniteFluidsClassTransformer.java to make sure I didn't do anything too stupid?

Do you know any tutorials on asm?

For this mod, I followed the one at

I just saw this on forge changelog and decided to comment here for the record

Build 1.10.2-12.18.1.2023:
josephcsible: Add CreateFluidSourceEvent to control infinite fluid sources
josephcsible: Add a test for CreateFluidSourceEvent
josephcsible: Use CreateFluidSourceEvent for mod fluids as well

 

this might aid you in your problem without the need of ASM

Yes, I'd say that definitely aids me in my problem, considering I'm the one who wrote it

That moment when you don't check the commiters. I feel stupid now but it's still true at least
