source

This tool can create an infinite magma or water source or drain on a tile. For more complex liquid placement, try liquids or gui/liquids.

Map tiles registered with this tool as a liquid source will be set to have the configured amount of liquid every 12 game ticks. A standard liquid source sets the level to 7, and a standard drain sets the level to 0, but you can set the target anywhere in between as well.

Usage

source add water|magma [0-7]

Add a source or drain at the selected tile position. If the target level is not specified, it defaults to 7. The cursor must be over a flow-passable tile (e.g. empty space, floor, staircase, etc.) and not too high in the sky.

source [list]

List all currently registered source tiles.

source delete

Remove the source under the cursor.

source clear

Remove all liquid sources that have been added with source.
