So, I coded a fluid (grease) into minecraft, it has a flow rate and all that, but it has no physical effect on entities. It doesn't push  you away or allow you to swim in it. Basically, it acts like air. I need to figure out what the problem is and what I need to do to fix it

 

Repo:

https://github.com/PressXFor/Porkchop-Mod/tree/master/porkchopmod/src/main/java/com/press_x_for/porkchopmod then go to the latest commits.

To make it water-like (swimming/pushing mobs) you need to add a tag that makes it behave like water in data.minecraft.tags.fluids called water.json (obviously this one is for the fluid I made when I was figuring this stuff out, make it for your fluids)

Quote

{
  "replace": false,
  "values": [
    "bunchostuff:muddy_water",
    "bunchostuff:muddy_water_flow"
  ]
}

And just a side note, the fluid I made testing I subclassed from ForgeFlowingFluid instead of FlowingFluid. Not sure if it matters for any reason or not, but figured I'd mention

even with it, it doesn't work

Package name is wrong, you have data.minecraft.tags with water.json, you need another package in tags called fluids
