[Raxt 0]

So, i found this cave that passed below a lake:

if that water get updated a whole cavesistem below would flood.

SO, imho this is not a feature, (imagine a lava lake in the ceiling =) )

I too see this alot, particularly with underground rivers and ravines, where they intersect. Large expanses of water suspended in awkward floating positions. I havent really given it much thought, because you see this on vanilla as well, typically around areas where caves meet the ocean in the sides of hills and mountains.

I have just run into a similiar situation myself and was wondering if there was any danger of my actions somehow updating the water and causing it to flood into the cavern.

Has anyone had this happen?

place a block next to the water and yes, it will happen, though 'usually' only next to that one block you updated, it can sometimes(though rarely it seems) cause chain reactions.

It's not danger, it's fun.

To keep the water from flowing through the cave and breaking torches, place a 1 high wall just beyond where the water would fall from directly above. You can also make a 1 deep trench and it will work just as good.
