Rain Bucket

by Zerw · on Modrinth

Fill empty buckets using rain or infinite water sources for a more immersive and convenient survival experience.

Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

This mod allows empty buckets to be filled with water in more immersive and convenient ways.

You can fill an empty bucket with rainwater by right-clicking while it is raining. Buckets can also be filled if an empty bucket item is dropped on the ground during rainfall. Additionally, throwing an empty bucket into an infinite water source such as oceans or seas will automatically fill it with water.

Perfect for survival gameplay, realism-focused modpacks, and quality-of-life improvements.
