If a mod adds a fluid with the icons property instead of icon:

  {
    type = "fluid",
    name = "water-test",
    default_temperature = 15,
    max_temperature = 100,
    heat_capacity = "0.2KJ",
    base_color = {r=0, g=0.34, b=0.6},
    flow_color = {r=0.7, g=0.7, b=0.7},
    icons = {{icon = "__base__/graphics/icons/fluid/water.png"}},
    order = "a[fluid]-a[water]",
    pressure_to_speed_ratio = 0.4,
    flow_to_energy_ratio = 0.59
  },

The fluid won't get barreling recipes/item generated due to:

Code: Select all

if (fluid.auto_barrel == nil or fluid.auto_barrel) and fluid.icon then

Probably fairly low priority, I'm not really bothered by it myself but I expect someone will eventually try to make some fluids using tinted icons and go crazy trying to figure out why they can't be barreled

Thanks for the report but this isn't a bug

It was purposefully setup to not auto-barrel fluids with layered icons because it simply doesn't work as the game handles icons now.

That may change some day but for now it's working as intended.

That's what I expected, I was looking for a feature request forum to put this in but I didn't see one so I put it here, looking again I can see it should have gone in Ideas and Suggestions...oops
