Stream Remover
Version: 1.05
CB: 1.4.6 R0.1
Description
Pretty much everyone ran into it in the past: You made a nice river, accidentally placed a dirt block on the sides, and removed it again. There it is...an ugly water stream. Sometimes forming hundreds at a time, it takes ages to fix them. With this plugin running, this will never happen. Annoying water streams belong to the past! :)
You can also do the same for lava streams, but you do need to enable it in the config.yml. (since this introduces infinite lava streams, could be a bad idea on your server)
Important: It prevents the FORMATION of these streams, it provides no commands to remove streams already existing. However, removing them does become easier.
Configuration
You can set 'allowLava' in the config.yml to true to allow the (infinite) lava stream fixer.

Don't work, or vanilla 1.6.2 correct this "flow" in automatic.
By the way, I prefer the command /fix water from world edit plugin ♥.
@spetznack
hmm I am not sure. I know some areas of the ocean fix themselves, and some spots have some funky spot that do not fix themselves. Maybe for the most part it already does this.
@Razorskills
Isn't this implemented in 1.6.2 vanilla?
So this is a couple years old now.. Does anyone know if it works? Or if there is another plugin like this for 1.6.4?
Thank you so much for this plugin, now water's physics sucks a little less!
Updated it so that it no longer needs BKCommonLib. It only uses Bukkit methods, so I doubt it will ever break, but nevertheless, a maintainer will be set to replace me here. Maybe he can add new features, who knows? :)
@CaptainJohnnyBlu I think it is. Didn't spot any errors...so far. Official v1.4.5 R0.2 release can be found in the development build, I will upload that anyhow. (tested, it is working)
@bergerkiller
Is the plugin compatible with the latest 1.4 releases?
@Joymo @bigscary So it stopped working in 1.3.2 R1.0? Been a while since I fully tested it again, so if it stopped working, tell me.
EDIT
Tested it, but it's still working as expected...
Have you tried hooking into block break and trying to actually fill the new space with a water source block when an adjacent water source block is touching at least two other water source blocks? You could add the additional constraint that it has to be at sea level or below to be on the safe side.
I think the current result is very odd, and maybe even worse/more unnatural than a stream of water - a wall of water?
I tested it with the lib that was latest at that point. To be sure, I also tested it now with the BK lib from 17 hours ago, I can still easily create Streams placing some dirts at water edge and removing the dirt again.
Note that //fixwater fixes the water perfectly fine.
@Joymo
have you first dropped this .jar file in your plugins folder ? do this then start and stop your server. now put the streamremover .jar in your plugins folder and start the server.
make sure you really have the streamremover .jar file in your plugins folder and not the raw downloaded archive which you first need to unzip. hope i could help. works fine for me
Loads fine, but tested some dirt blocks in river edge, removed them, and the freaky streams are created and don't disappear :/
I don't even know what happened. There were some strange things going on my server and since it was broken (even though it was just broken for me, can't say that for sure) I thought nothing would happen to this plugin but by checking all the plugins updated recently I found it and its working fine this time :D
@exeakaexe Didn't know it was broken in the first place, though. The logic in this plugin is so simplistic I didn't expect anything to be broken. Maybe BKCommonLib in the download was broken, though, that one was oooold. (hence it now uses a separate page so it can be updated properly)
THANK YOU !!! This was one of my favorite plugins alltime and now its finally updated.
thanks so much !!!
This doesn't seem to start or create a config file. Using 1.2.5R4.0. Does this still work, or does it need an update?
maybe you add the words "water" and "flow" several times. Should be easy to find when you search for these words, but it isnt.
anyway nice plugin. :)
@bergerkiller
the github download links give a 404 error back ;)
Just a general note: it still works, but you may have to update BKCommonLib. You can download TrainCarts/NoLagg/MyWorlds etc to get version 1.18, which is compatible with build 2126.
