      ATTENTION Forum Database Breach   03/04/2019

      There has been a breach of our database. Please make sure you change your password (use a password manager, like Lastpass).
      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too! The passwords themselves are stored hashed, but may old accounts still had old, insecure (by today's standards) hashes from back when they where created. This means they can be "cracked" more easily. Other leaked information includes: email, IP, account name.
      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Is there still a config option to make infinite water sources? Or is it all finite now?

Infinite water sources still exist, if you remove the center from 3 source blocks, it will turn back into a source block.

 

Wooden buckets cannot place source blocks, but Red Steel buckets can.

Wooden buckets should be able to place flow blocks, and not just empty when you right-click them.

But that's just my two cents

They used to be able to in past versions, but the issue with that was that you could place the "flowing" water in a 1x1 hole, and it would never flow away and disappear.

what? How does that work?

.. If you made it so it doesn't place a full flow block, would that work? because I have never seen a 'flow' block never disappear...

Flow blocks that weren't generated from a source block don't follow the same rules, and do indeed stay around if they have nowhere to flow to and decrease.

Huh, you know, I really should have learned not to judge by BTW mechanics by now.......

And is there no way to trick the flow block into thinking it was generated from a source block?

Since you can not place flowblocks anymore... no.

There used to be a way to generate source blocks by letting flowblocks freeze in winter...

 

I once based my whole agriculture off of a sourceblock created in such a way. Had my fields in a Valley between to huge mountains. Valley was mostly snow and ice free, but it would freeze on top of the mountains, so i created a lake there and then build aqueducts to transport water from up there and around to where ever it was needed.
