[1.13.2] Question about Fluid handling

[pkmnfrk]

Today I decided to look at starting to port some of my mods to 1.13.2, and I have a question about the state of Fluids in Forge at the moment.

 

In 1.12.2, it was easy: Fluids all derived from net.minecraftforge.fluids.Fluid, you could make FluidStacks from them, look them up in the FluidRegistry, etc.

 

However, in 1.13.2, it seems like Fluids are broken. FluidRegistry is missing getFluid, FluidStacks have their getFluid lookups commented out, there are now two Fluid classes (the new one in net.minecraft.fluid). It seems like it's all very in flux. Is this a correct assessment? Or, is there a whole other new system that I'm missing?

Fluids are going to be completely reworked. You'll have to wait until Forge adds compatability.

As Lex said, the current fluid system is completely broken, and they won't add support until 1.14. So you can try to figure out how to use the vanilla system, otherwise you're out of luck.
