Bigger Sponge Absorption Radius (Legacy Fabric)
This mod fundamentally expands the functionality of the standard sponge in Minecraft, enabling the creation of powerful water-absorbing structures. From now on, sponges work in teams - the more you place next to each other, the larger the water absorption zone becomes.
The basic principle of operation is simple: the system automatically detects all dry sponges located next to each other and combines their potential. Each additional sponge increases the effective radius, multiplying the capabilities of a single block. Wet sponges are also accounted for in the calculations, although they cannot initiate water absorption themselves.
Visual demonstration of the system in action:

When water reaches any dry sponge, it triggers a chain reaction, turning all involved sponges wet. This mechanic opens up new possibilities for creating efficient drainage systems, building underwater structures, and controlling water resources in your Minecraft world.
