[MC-84246] Splash water creates floating water puddles when hitting sideways fire

When sideways fire is hit with a splash water bottle potion it turns out, but the spawned falling water continues to fall

I think that the newly spawned falling water that turns out the fire must be deleted

The water continued to fall down

Steps to Reproduce:
1:Ligh up a wooden log tower, pointing to the sky, somewhere on the top blocks with flint and steel.

2:Throw a splash water bottle potion on the side of it.

3:You will see the water wall down.(Try it a couple of times if it doesnt work from the first time.)

Environment

Windows 7

seems intended to me, the water sees air below it, and flows down, regardless what water level it is

Yes, and that is the problem in it. The water should be deleted after it turns the fire off.

this is how water has worked for a long time, I don't think they'll change it

Why shouldn't the water layer flow down? You threw a bit of water there after all, right?

I know how water works! Mojang puts that water there for visual effects, they can turn off the fire without the water too, but with water shown it is more cool. The problem is that the water falls when it sees air beneath and that makes it really strange... They can put the water, but then replace it with air right away

if you throw water on a tree, it would fall down too, right?

migrated 2015-07-31T13:42:47Z

Depends if the tree is dry or not. If not - the water will fall down, but not like this

facepalm it's still minecraft!

ophhhh... Before people killed dragons with beds and now they travel downwards by putting off fires

migrated 2015-07-31T13:48:18Z

OK I understand your position, but this falling water thing happens ONLY when you turn off fires. Why doesnt it happen when there is no fire?

migrated 2015-07-31T13:49:47Z

There are two ways for the developers - Delete water after turning off fire OR spawn water whether there is fire or not

migrated 2015-07-31T13:50:29Z

because what the water bottle does is change nearby fire into small water pounds with the lowest water level, that's how mojang intended it to work

migrated 2015-07-31T13:55:29Z

that is what i mean and that is why I note the falling effect! In your logic if you throw water on a tree the water falls. But in this case the water falls only if the tree is on fire!

migrated 2015-07-31T13:56:16Z

and that's by mojangs design, this is high likely intended

migrated 2015-07-31T13:59:36Z

Like it was intended to kill the ender dragon with beds?

migrated 2015-07-31T14:00:02Z

this bug isn't about that at all

migrated 2015-07-31T14:00:15Z

If they have tested every posibility they wouldnt have created this bug finder thing

just keep this in mind:

And that is why they created the bug finder thing to report things that might change to better the new things

migrated 2015-07-31T14:09:11Z

Imagine how coll would it be for the splash watter bottle to spawn water regardless of the fire

Fixed somewhere between 15w45a and 15w31a: Splash water no longer creates puddles at all.
