Immortal Coral
by Sjouwer
With Immortal Coral, corals stop dying when they are out of water, and a smoker turns them into a smoked variant that the mod keeps immortal.
What it does
Immortal Coral adds a game rule that keeps coral alive outside water, so dead coral blocks do not form in dry places. The mod does not add new blocks, so a world stays compatible with vanilla content and survives removal of the mod without corruption of coral that was already placed.
A smoker can apply a smoke layer to coral, giving a smoked variant. A bucket of water washes that layer off, returning the block to its original look. Smoked coral keeps the dead coral appearance that the smoker produces, and the mod treats these blocks as immortal, so they remain in place.
The mod runs on Fabric and Quilt. It is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and its source code and issue tracker are public. Fabric API is required, and the mod works on single-player worlds, dedicated servers and clients alike. Files cover 1.14.4 – 26.3, with 2.0.0 for 26.3 as the latest Fabric build.
