Create Aeronautics: Portable Engine Liquid Fuel

by XenraO

Liquid fuel for the Portable Engine lets the engine burn fluids such as lava that arrive through pipes, not only solid fuels.

What it does

The Portable Engine normally takes solid fuel. This mod adds liquid fuel support, so the engine can consume fluids like lava fed through pipe systems. Servers and players both need the mod installed, since the environment is client and server.

Custom fluids can be added through a datapack. Entries can be limited to load only when a chosen mod is present, and a replace option avoids overwriting existing entries. Both options can be used together. The mod is for NeoForge on 1.21.1 only and is released under the MIT License, but it is not open source.

Key features

  1. Liquid fuel intake

    The Portable Engine accepts fluids such as lava delivered by pipes, alongside its solid fuels.

  2. Custom fluid datapacks

    Datapack file paths let pack makers register additional fluids as fuel for the engine.

  3. Conditional and safe entries

    Entries can load only when a specific mod is installed, and a replace option prevents overwriting existing fuel entries.

Questions

Does Liquid fuel support need to be installed on the server?

Yes. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.

What the author says

Adds liquid fuel support to the Portable Engine from Create: Aeronautics (Simulated). Instead of relying solely on solid fuels, the engine can now consume fluids like lava through pipe systems. Both neoforge:conditions and replace can be used together โ€” they are not incompatible.
