About this project

What does Permanent Sponges add?

Permanent Sponges adds some neat new sponges that don't just remove liquids, but also keep them away permanently! Ready to build some crazy underwater cities without ceilings?

▶️ Clear out liquids with ease in a big area!

▶️ Liquids will stay away and are not able to flow back as long as the sponge remains.

▶️ Includes a magmatic sponge made specially for lava and other hot fluids.

▶️ There are also sponges on sticks, for quickly clearing out some small pockets of fluids.

⏩ INSTALLATION REQUIRED ON CLIENT & REQUIRED ON SERVER

⏩ REQUIRES PUZZLES LIB TO BE INSTALLED (FABRIC & NEOFORGE)

⏩ REQUIRES FABRIC API TO BE INSTALLED (FABRIC)

⏩ REQUIRES FORGE CONFIG API PORT TO BE INSTALLED (FABRIC)

If available for a mod, configuration is possible directly from in-game using the mod menu (requires Mod Menu by Prospector to be installed on Fabric). Please note that on older Minecraft versions installing Forge Config Screens is also a requirement.

For manual configuration using an external text editor all files are found at .minecraft/config, named as MOD_ID-client.toml, MOD_ID-common.toml, or MOD_ID-server.toml, depending on the type of config. Not all types might exist for a mod, if any at all.

🌟 Thanks to Jackyy and their Simple Sponges mod for inspiring this one.

🌟 Thanks to Nyffuuuh23 for creating those dandy textures!
