Item interactive
by pise4ku
Item Interactive adds physical interactions to dropped items, so explosives, flaming projectiles and fluids react to items on the ground in the world.
What it does
Dropped items in the world respond to their surroundings. Empty buckets pick up water when they float or fall in it, and a lava bucket that lands in water turns into an obsidian block as a dropped item. Dry sponges soak up water and become wet sponges, and a wet sponge placed next to lava or fire dries out at once.
Dropped TNT entities can be lit by a flaming arrow hitting them, or by a player using flint and steel or a fire charge on them, and nearby explosions set them off. The mod is built for Fabric and runs on the server alone, so players join without installing it. Files target 1.20.1 and 1.21.11, with 1.21.11 as the latest build, and the code is not open source.

Key features
Water-filled buckets
Empty buckets fill with water when they fall or float in water, so fluid pickup happens as items move through the world.
Lava-bucket obsidian
A dropped lava bucket that meets water turns into an empty bucket and spawns an obsidian item.
Wet and dry sponges
Dry sponges absorb water and become wet sponges, which dry out at once when placed beside lava or fire.
Ignitable dropped TNT
Dropped TNT item entities catch fire from nearby explosions and take damage, and flaming arrows ignite them on impact.
