Pretty Beaches is a mod that improves the physics of water after sand blocks are broken. Normally water will trail and stop flowing after a few blocks are broken. This leads to continually filling those gaps with more and more water to make source blocks of water.

But this mod keeps the water flowing and creates those source blocks automatically.

It’s a vastly more realistic interpretation of water but it does actually create water so it limits servers that may want to maintain limited water resources. But the filling aspect of this mod is a great addition and makes it super easy fill large holes. Normally the water will simply flow down and stop after a certain point.

But with this mod, filling a hole is super quick and easy!

This mod does only work on water that’s next to sand blocks but you can customize the config file to add additional blocks to the list.

An additional API found here is also required.
