About this project
What does Pretty Beaches add?
This mod adjusts water physics when digging sand near water in an attempt to prevent ugly appearances of flowing water. This means you can go dig up that sand you really needed without having to worry about ruining the environment.
This mod requires Balm, which must be installed alongside the mod.
- Breaking sand next to water creates water source blocks immediately
- Water floods into nearby holes when sand is dug up
- No more getting pushed by flowing water or leaving unnatural digsites behind
- As this mod creates water for free, it is not suited for cases where water is meant to be limited.
