Fluid Tick Structure Processor

by settingdust

Fluid Tick Structure Processor is a server-side library that starts water, lava and other modded fluids flowing as soon as a structure generates.

FabricForgeNeoForgeServer-side onlyApache License 2.0Open source1.20.1 – 1.21.1

What it does

The mod adds a structure processor named fluid tick. The processor searches a structure for fluid blocks and schedules a fluid tick for each one, so fluids inside generated structures start moving right after generation instead of staying frozen in place. Once a fluid block is scheduled, the ordinary fluid update logic takes over and the result follows normal fluid behavior, which can change how the structure plays out. The processor is applied to a structure through a datapack, so a structure placed in the world can use it without any code.

Players join without it, since only the server has to run the mod. It targets 1.20.1, 1.21 and 1.21.1, with the latest file 0.1.0 for 1.21.1 published on 2025-10-21. The project is open source under the Apache License 2.0 and has public links to its source code and issue tracker. Required dependencies are Fabric Language Kotlin on Fabric and Kotlin for Forge on Forge and NeoForge.

Because the processor is data driven, it can sit alongside other structure and fluid mods that also use datapack processors. An example usage is included with the project to show how a structure is set up to use the processor.

Key features

  1. Fluid tick processor

    A structure processor that finds fluid blocks inside a structure and schedules a fluid tick for each one.

  2. Immediate fluid flow

    Right after a structure finishes generating, any water, lava or other modded fluid inside it starts moving instead of sitting still.

  3. Datapack configuration

    The processor is applied to a structure through a datapack, with no code needed to use it.

  4. Compatible with other structure mods

    Being data driven, the processor can be used with other structure and fluid mods that accept datapack processors.
