No Nether Water
by edshearing
No Nether Water is a NeoForge mod for 1.21.4 that removes water-based items from a player's inventory when they enter the Nether.
What it does
When a player steps into the Nether, water-related items in their inventory are evaporated. Regular water buckets become empty buckets, and a bucket holding fish has its fish released into the dimension as it is emptied. Potions are affected too: throwable and lingering potions turn into empty glass bottles.
Ice, snow, powdered snow and any water placed in the Nether are handled as well. Ice and snow that a player places there disappear, and water cauldrons evaporate. The changes take effect instantly on entering the dimension, so a player cannot carry water through it.
The mod runs on NeoForge only, with builds published for 1.21.4 and nothing else. The server and every player need the mod installed. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. The author lists further features as planned.
Key features
Inventory water evaporation
Water buckets, fish buckets and potions in the inventory are converted to empty containers as soon as the player enters the Nether.
Potion conversion
Throwable and lingering potions become empty bottles, so no water-based potion effects are carried into the dimension.
Frozen block removal
Ice, snow and powdered snow placed in the Nether disappear, which keeps frozen blocks from being built there.
Cauldron evaporation
Water cauldrons in the Nether evaporate, so players cannot fill them as a water source in that dimension.
