Lava Source
Renewable lava sources that generate infinitely, enabling automation and sustainable fuel systems.
About
Lava Source is a datapack that makes lava a renewable resource by allowing lava sources to generate infinitely, similar to how water sources work in Minecraft.
By creating specific lava source configurations, players can build sustainable lava farms and produce an unlimited supply of lava over time, opening new possibilities for automation and large-scale survival projects.
Designed to feel natural within vanilla Minecraft, Lava Source expands existing fluid mechanics while keeping the gameplay balanced and familiar for both survival and technical players.
