Infinite liquid generators after version 1.4

[Daydream Beyond]

I used to make infinite liquid generators all the time in the game using outlet and inlet pumps. I have recently been playing the game again with all it's updates, and none of my infinite liquid generators are working the way I used to build them. Did they change how it works? Also, is there a new way to make infinite liquid generators now? If someone could link me to a guide that is for after 1.4 update I would greatly appreciate it, because I have only been able to find guides for them from years ago.

These were my liquid generators pre 1.4, I recently tested them to find that they are currently net neutral with the water generator still functional but being slower than normal. There's probably some tweaks one could make here or there, but I currently don't have the desire to attempt it right now. I probably will try to fix them after I get further along in my journey mode, master difficulty playthrough (trying to 100% dupe all items).

They changed how some stuff works, but at same time they added other mechanics to make infinite water...
Pumps are to transport water now they fixed bug, but to make generate infinite water you can use the new wet bombs lava bombs and honey bombs it's very easy to get them just some fishing and after u get one the demolinist npc sell then very cheap for you.

I'm not sure if the pyramid style waterfall still works to multiply water did not test yet

i've used the bucket technique to make my oasis pond larger and it still works

Bucket still works but b/c the liquids turn into the 'waterfall' type blocks it is extremely fast and hard to pull off. It still works but much more difficult. I have not tried lava yet but I will prob die doing it b/c I haven't been able to get water to work without standing in a little pool of it and then using a block at the edge to split it. Before I would stand one block above my splitter but that doesn't seem to work anymore.

Pyramid multiplier still works. The only change is the way the blocks are when the water falls. B/c they are much faster now it makes the whole process very difficult to do. I see why they did it for lag, etc. but it definitely changed the way I duplicate liquids.

I like Journey so far but skipping progression and being able to mine blocks forever away from me, while cool, sort of eliminates any feeling of finally being able to handle the world from lowly beginnings. Probably use journey for a quick jump in and test ideas mode and classic for most of my games since Journey feels like easy mode built on easy mode. I know you can turn it on / off but I will probably still stick to classic mode.

Yeah, mine had pumps and wiring, but the outlet pumps no longer pump extra liquid compared to the intake I think now.

This seems like a good method, but I was hoping for one that doesn't involve money in the game cause I have very bad luck on reforges and tend to be very broke lol.

I would use the bucket method, but I don't like the amount of space it takes up for what I would like to build on my main world, and also the lag it causes for me really sucks lol. I am playing on classic mode as well, so I can understand that haha.
