Describe your issue

When attacking the mob using weapons with melting modifier, if the mob itself and its dropped item (e.g. slime) have the same melting result, the fluid amount may fluctuate.

After I killed a large slime:

Looks to me like you are in creative mode. Creative mode is known to make NBT inconsistent, and to be honest I doubt the weapons will work in creative to any reasonable degree. Try it in survival.

I tried, and it happened again.

Hmm, quick glance at the source code suggests that the melting modifier is not properly melting dropped items, I think that it will just reset the tank to 0 before melting an item due to a typo.

To confirm, you could try melting a mob that has a drop with a different output than the mob itself, or mine a block with the melting modifier.

Bug is basically the same as the other melting bug we recently had, made a mistake when cleaning up the code in 1 or 2 modifiers.

I see. I remember that melting ores also has similar problem. I guess that is the reason.
Thanks!
