A spring is a feature consisting of a single block of liquid that flows out into spaces level with or lower than the source.

Types of springs

[edit | edit source]

There are three main categories of fluid springs:

Normal springs

[edit | edit source]
👁 Image
A water spring as viewed from inside a cave.

Normal springs can generate as either water or lava in the sides of stone surfaces. These are commonly encountered on the sides of cliffs, as well as inside caves. Lava springs are a common source of forest fires. Water springs additionally can only generate below Y=192.

Ceiling springs

[edit | edit source]

Nether ceiling spring.

Ceiling springs are exclusive to the Nether and only generate with lava. They generate on ceilings, and the lava flows directly downwards from them.

Hidden springs

[edit | edit source]

Hidden lava springs are plentiful at all depths in the Nether.

In the Nether, lava springs can generate without any exposed faces buried in terrain, potentially becoming hazardous when blocks around them are mined.

    • [NBT Compound / JSON Object] state The fluid to use.
    • [Int] rock_count (optional, defaults to 4) The required number of blocks adjacent to the spring that belong to [NBT List / JSON Array] valid_blocks. Block above is not counted.
    • [Int] hole_count (optional, defaults to 1) The required number of air blocks adjacent to the spring. Block above is not counted.
    • [Boolean] requires_block_below (optional, defaults to true) Whether the spring feature requires a block in [NBT List / JSON Array] valid_blocks below it.
    • [String][NBT List / JSON Array] valid_blocks Can be a block ID or a block tag, or a list of block IDs.
