	If standing water is low enough in a block space, it may "evaporate" and despawn. When water is less than 1/28 of a block, it disappears from that block. This may allow water from an adjacent block to flow in and repeat the process, eventually lowering the water level in the other block to less than 1/28 ~~too~~. This effect can slowly clear large areas of shallow water.		If standing water is low enough in a block space, it may "evaporate" and despawn.

			'''Water''' is a fluid [[block]] that can be a barrier to travel or a useful resource.

			==Appearance==
			The pattern for water is animated to suggest fluid motion. Its color varies with available light, but is typically some shade of cyan or blue-green.

			==Where Found==
			Water occurs naturally on the surface of a generated [[world]] in the form of bodies of water such as ponds, lakes, and [[ocean]]s. It can also spawn underground, partially or completely filling [[cave]]rns.

			==Characteristics==
			===Flowing===
			Water will flow from one block to another, if an adjacent block is removed, a block is added in space occupied by water, or when a [[Bucket Of Water\|bucket of water]] is emptied. Water will seek to fill the lowest available space but will not decrease in volume doing so, which can result in spaces being partially filled with water.

			Water will flow over drop-offs and "splash" across the top of blocks. This can cause unexpected problems as water will dislodge placed [[item]]s such as [[ladder]]s or [[Oil Lantern\|oil lanterns]], dropping them for pick-up by the next blockhead that passes them. Other placed items such as [[Steel Lantern\|steel lanterns]] are unaffected.

			Whether water will flow between two adjacent partially filled blocks appears to be determined by comparing their relative levels. If there is insufficient difference, there will be no flow. This can result in a very gentle, descending gradient across long expanses. (In one test, there was a drop of 28 pixels over a span of some 93 blocks with 80-pixel blocks after the water settled.) A significant difference in water height will cause "splash" particles to be produced as the water flows.

			Flowing water will "push" [[item]]s floating on top of it in the direction of the flow.

			When multiple water blocks are directly over [[air]] blocks, there may be a flickering pattern of air and water as the two trade places.

			===Freezing===
			Free-standing water (or poured from a [[Bucket Of Water\|bucket]]) in an [[Biome\|area]] experiencing sufficient cold (such as falling [[Weather\|snow]]) or [[space]] may freeze into [[ice]] if it sufficiently fills a block. Trace water may disappear. Under warmer conditions, ice may melt into water. Melted ice is typically replaced by the same volume of water that froze.

			Water close enough to cold air will freeze into ice, the distance dependent on the degree of cold. Conversely, ice close enough to warm air will melt.

			===Boiling===
			[[File:Boiling Water.png\|thumb\|Water boils near magma]]
			Free-standing water that's close enough to a heat source (such as [[magma]], a [[campfire]], a [[furnace]], or [[fire\|burning]] blocks) will begin boiling, giving off "puffs of steam" in the form of white dots that quickly shrink and disappear. No water is lost, however.

			Water at the correct temperature will, as of [[Game updates/20130625\|version 1.3]], [[Health Bar\|heal]] a [[blockhead]] immersed in it.

			===Evaporation===
			If water fills less than one whole block on top of [[magma]], it does not turn into [[basalt]] and instead evaporates into steam and disappears.

			===Dissipation===
			If standing water is low enough in a block space, it may "evaporate" and despawn. When water is less than 1/28 of a block, it disappears from that block. This may allow water from an adjacent block to flow in and repeat the process, eventually lowering the water level in the other block to less than 1/28 too. This effect can slowly clear large areas of shallow water.

			==Harvesting==
			It's not possible to pick up water directly, but may be [[Harvesting\|picked up]] and carried when frozen into [[ice]] and allowed to melt when placed later.

			Using a [[bucket]] on water will change the bucket into a [[Bucket Of Water\|bucket of water]] and removes the water from the affected space. This can be done on even partially filled spaces containing more than one-eighth of a block of water.

			==Drowning==
			A [[blockhead]] who has its head fully immersed in water will suffer from a lack of [[air]] and begin reducing their [[Air Bar\|air bar]]. Once the air bar is empty, the blockhead's health will start to decrease.

			If a blockhead drowns in warm water, the healing effect of the water will counteract the loss of health.

			==Uses==
			Water cannot be used directly for [[crafting]], but is needed for some crafting recipes in the form of a [[Bucket Of Water\|bucket of water]].

			[[Kelp]] cannot be planted in a block that isn't under sufficient water. It will then grow upward until it reaches a solid block or the block of water immediately below air.
