A fluid ingredient definition, for example for a Prototype/Recipe. Its loading is triggered by the type of a Types/IngredientPrototype being "fluid".

Type: Types/double

Optional properties

Type: Types/double

If #temperature is not set, this sets the expected maximum temperature of the fluid ingredient.

catalyst_amount

Type: Types/double

Default: 0

Amount of this ingredient that should not be included in the fluid consumption statistics. Usually used together with an equal catalyst amount on the "product" of the catalyst in the recipe.

If this FluidIngredientPrototype is used in a recipe, the catalyst amount is calculated automatically based on the ingredients and results.[1]

Type: Types/uint32

Default: 0 (no specific fluidbox)

Used to specify which fluidbox this ingredient should use on the machine. It will only use this one fluidbox.
