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 &amp; REQUIRED ON SERVER

⏩ REQUIRES PUZZLES LIB TO BE INSTALLED (FABRIC &amp; 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).

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.
