Datapack API

Summary

Liquid blaze burner fuel can be added via a datapack. Before 2.0, types could only be added through datapack, but now it's automatically added to any item that have a default fluid capability, so some of the datapack are no longer necessary.

How to add a new Fuel

Adding a custom type is quite simple - just set up a basic datapack (more information here) and add some files under the data/[namespace]/blaze_burner_fuel directory. Files must end in .json but can be located in any sub-directory, as long as the full path does not violate Minecraft's ResourceLocation path check. The full specification for these JSON files can be found in the table below.

JSON Specification

Key	Value Type	Default Value	Description
fluid	string	N/A	String representing the namespaced identifier of an fluid if the liquid fuel
burnTime	integer	if superHeat 32 else 20	The amount of ticks that amountConsumedPerTickmB of that fluid will light the burner for
superHeat	boolean	false	If the fluid will superheat the burner
amountConsumedPerTick	integer	if superHeat 10 else 1	The amount of fluid in mB will be consumed per tick

Example:

data/example_mod/blaze_burner_fuel/example_fluid.json

  "fluid": "example_mod:example_fluid",
  "burnTime": 20,
  "superHeat": false,
  "amountConsumedPerTick" : 1
