This is a project for which I started to add a better energy, fluid, and item systems system. The system is similar to Forge Energy and Fluid but adds additional features and templates for the MCreator community. As the project develops there will be more documentation on the Wiki on this repository.
MCreator systems aim to add a better system for energy, fluid, and item transportation for mods in the MCreator community. This page will give you the foundational information alongside examples for each component which you can use in your mods.
After trying to make a few tutorial series on how to use Forge Fluid and Energy I have found that the forge system (at least in MCreator) is limited and does not offer many features which people have requested tutorials for. Things like multi-tasks for fluid and transporting more than one liquid per pipe or even multi-use pipes simply can’t be done or are limited to some degree. It is though possible to convert this system to Forge Energy or Fluid if one decides to do so.
The system is pretty simple, it uses NBT variables for blocks, items, and entities which Forge already makes use of for their energy system but like the above described it is limited in some aspects and does not allow a lot of flexibility. Using an outline which we will cover here it is possible to coordinate the MCreator community to create our own energy, fluid and item transport system.
As research and development progresses in the system, more features will be added which can be added to your mods. However, keep in mind that it’s up to the mod creator to document what version of MCreator Systems they are using as versions will impact how other mods communicate with other mods. Some features on older or newer versions may not exist which can cause comparability issues if the creator does not document what version they are using. It is ideal to keep your mod up to date with the latest version of this system. In MCreator you can import procedures which we will provide so updating is a bit easier to manage.
