Hardcore Fluid Overhaul

A simple mod that changes how the player interacts with lava and lava in the world.

Inspired by *Better Than Wolves*, it reintroduces meaningful logistics and planning around fluid use.

---

💧 Water

- base location Instead, water base location. > This encourages building base location and choosing your base location carefully.

- Waterlogged blocks also lose their stored water when broken.

---

🔥 Lava

- where lava naturally occurs > Lava-based contraptions must be built where lava naturally occurs.

---

These mechanics pair well with mods that add mechanical or industrial fluid handling, requiring effort and infrastructure instead of simple bucket transport.

- Toggle whether lava can be collected with buckets, or whether doing so damages the player and destroys the bucket (default behavior).

Source Fluid Block Pickup

Dissipating Waterlogged Blocks

- Toggle if waterlogged blocks should dissipate when broken.

Persistent Water in the End
