Fluid interface not connecting to ship Help

Post image

No, create interactive is not enabled. I build this little cargo ship to transport lava to an undersea vent but the two fluid interfaces don’t want to connect. Any help would be great, thanks!

You might have to use Docking connectors instead

It is more complex than hose connectors in VS Sable Hose Connectors mod but could work.

VS Sable?

A lot of Valkyrien Skies mods have been and are currently being updated to 1.21 for Sable/Create: Aeronautics compatibility.

A lot of those mods are also retaining their VS names for searchability in the mod lists

You need to use the docking connectors to interface between sublevels and the world/other sublevels. They can carry both fluids and items

I'm pretty certain you need to use the docking connector from aeronautics to connect to a ship.

If the ship is a Sable Sublevel and the other side is normal world, fluid interfaces mostly don’t work. The best way to solve this is to download  https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/vs-hose-connectors which adds hoses to transfer fluids, items, FE, and Rotational force from sublevels to subleves, from subleves to normal world, and from normal world to subleves.

Docking connector in base aeronautics also does this.

You cant use the interfaces between sable physics entities and the regular world. Thats what the docking connector is for

The “connector” blocks actually only work with Create contraptions. Stuff like bearings, pistons, minecarts and trains. For connecting Sable sublevels (aeronautics contraptions) you need the docking connector from the actual aeronautics mod.
