About this Mod

A very simple Minecraft mod that does one thing: it prevents fluid from being able to push players around.

It does so by changing the Player.isPushedByFluid() getter to always return false. That's it. That's the mod.

But why?

I made this mod for use in a private modpack, in combination with the flowing fluids mod which creates all kinds of water flows and currents, even when the water seems to be settled. This means that wading through standing water can become annoying, especially while exploring caves. So this mod solves that issue by letting the player walk through flowing water as if it was a still water source block.

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Wader consumes the most tick time.
