how does water work?
water, in minecraft, is really quite simple, but a lot of people still don't quite understand how it works, so here are a few basic facts on the mechanics of water:
firstly, there are two types of water: flowing water and "source blocks". (flowing water is the official, internal name for the block, while 'source block' is a common community term.) as the names would imply, flowing water comes out of the source blocks. source blocks are the kind that naturally generate and are placed from buckets.
not counting the source block, water can flow seven blocks horizontally in all directions.
i'm using invisible blocks to keep the water in place to better show off the mechanic, but rest assured, that air block really is air.
downward flowing water, as far as the length water can flow is concerned, is basically a source block. if water flows down at all, it will be able to flow horizontally another seven blocks.
the area i built for this doesn't even have enough space to show this off lol.
a block can only be waterlogged with a water source. if you place a block in flowing water, it will simply block the water.
levers are an exception to this on bedrock edition for some reason.
normally, water will only flow horizontally on the ground, but if a source block is placed in the air, it will flow 1 block horizontally before it starts only flowing downward.
this is, of course, assuming the water isn't blocked.
certain blocks, like kelp, can be placed in downward flowing water and turn that into a source block. notice how the water starts flowing 1 block horizontally where the kelp starts. that's because of the kelp turning the downward flowing water into source blocks.
source blocks can also be created if two full strength (that is, level 7, the water flowing directly from the source and not from other flowing water) flowing water blocks meet. here's a very common infinite water setup:
these are both sources. if i let them flow into each other:
now all four of these blocks are sources. because of this "level 7 rule", water can be taken infinitely from this square so long as it isn't taken quicker than the water can flow.
water will only disappear if it is cut off from its source block. for example, if water is made to flow horizontally on the floor, and then the floor underneath it is removed, it will keep flowing the length it was flowing before, as well as also flowing down.
a water source that is actively flowing into flowing water will also appear to be flowing, even pushing any creatures that happen to get caught in it, but it is still a source block.
source blocks that don't flow into anything appear still (at least, on its top. the sides will always appear flowing).
only source blocks can be picked up with a bucket.

I have a disorder that makes me want to headcanon every nonhuman character with the ability to purr regardless if it makes sense for their kind or not. It's called being right. With enough research i could justify a tree purring if i wanted to
