About this Mod

This mod allows empty buckets to be filled with water in more immersive and convenient ways.

You can fill an empty bucket with rainwater by right-clicking while it is raining. Buckets can also be filled if an empty bucket item is dropped on the ground during rainfall. Additionally, throwing an empty bucket into an infinite water source such as oceans or seas will automatically fill it with water.

Perfect for survival gameplay, realism-focused modpacks, and quality-of-life improvements.

Server lagging with Rain Bucket – how to optimize performance?
