Create Wells

by TheTechnicBoy

Create Wells adds a Create-powered well that pumps liquids from the ground once rotational force reaches it, with the fluid type set by where the well is placed.

ForgeNeoForgeClient and serverApache License 2.0Open source1.20.1 – 1.21.1

What it does

Wells need rotational energy from the Create mod to generate fluids, so a well must be connected to a Create rotation source. The type of fluid depends on the biome or dimension the well sits in, and on the block the well is built on. Wells can be placed in unconventional orientations, including upside-down, which may require some extra recipes to build.

Recipes for wells can be added or changed through datapacks, and recipes are listed in JEI. Integration with Create and JEI is included, and a port of the Well mod by cubicoder is covered by the Create Wells addon. The mod is available for Forge and NeoForge, with builds for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, and it runs on client and server, so both sides need it. Create is a required dependency. The code is open source under the Apache License 2.0.

Key features

  1. Mechanical well pumping

    A well produces liquid from rotational force, so placing it on a rotation network starts generation.

  2. Biome and dimension fluids

    The fluid a well produces depends on the biome or dimension where it is placed.

  3. Block-based fluid conditions

    The block a well is located on changes which fluid it generates.

  4. Datapack recipes

    Well recipes can be defined in datapacks, so pack makers can add their own fluid outputs.

  5. JEI recipe display

    Well recipes appear in the JEI menu, so players can check what each well outputs.
