Infinite Lava
by TerrainKin
Infinite Lava changes how flowing lava behaves, so that it turns into source blocks the way flowing water does.
What it does
Flowing lava can form infinite source blocks, matching the behavior that water already has in the game. The mod is a lightweight Forge addition that changes only this lava rule, so the rest of the world generation and fluid handling stays as it is. Only the server needs it: players join a server that runs the mod without installing anything. Forge is the only loader, and files exist for 1.20.1, released under the MIT License and not open source.
Key features
Infinite lava sources
Flowing lava becomes a source block, letting a player collect and place lava repeatedly from one spot.
Water-like lava behavior
Lava follows the same source-forming rule that flowing water uses, so the two fluids behave alike.
Lightweight change
The mod changes only the lava source rule and adds no new blocks, items or screens.
