Infinite Waters Fix [Forge]
Infinite Waters Fix removes the ability to create infinite water sources, so each water block a player takes out of an ocean or river is gone for good.
What it does
Once the mod is installed, the world's water sources become finite. Taking a water block out of an ocean or river leaves a visible gap behind, which serves as a reminder that the resource is limited. Infinite rivers and oceans no longer keep supplying water, and the extra infinite water pools that vanilla allows are removed as well.
The change applies automatically in worlds where the waterSourceConversion game rule is set to false. Players who want limited water can use it to add resource management and planning to survival play, since water usage has to be considered when building settlements and exploring. Installation needs Forge for Minecraft 1.19.4, and the mod runs on client and server, so the server and every player need it. The files are published for 1.19.4 only, and the mod is released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source.
Key features
Finite water sources
Water source blocks in the world can no longer be regenerated, so each one taken is permanently removed.
No infinite rivers or oceans
Ocean and river water no longer serves as an endless supply for buckets and other uses.
Visible gaps after pickup
Taking a source block from a body of water leaves a noticeable gap that shows the resource has been used.
Compatible with the game rule

Use cases
Survival resource planning

Realism-focused worlds
Players who want a more constrained world can keep water finite for a survival experience with more deliberate exploration.
Who it’s for: Players who want limited water in survival worlds, and server owners who want water to be a finite resource on their multiplayer servers.
