    • If the roots are waterlogged, the water will vanish.
  • Can be powered.
Mangrove Wood
  • A new type of wood, as well as a stripped variant.
  • Can be used to craft mangrove planks.
Mud
  • Can generate in the upcoming mangrove biome.
  • When walking on mud, entities sink down a bit.
    • Like soul sand, but without the slowdown.
  • Can be made by using a water bottle directly or through a dispenser on dirt, coarse dirt and rooted dirt.

Sculk Catalyst
  • Generates in the deep dark biome.
  • Emits soul particles after a mob dies within 8 blocks, and grows sculk related blocks.
    • Spreads sculk blocks to wherever a nearby mob dies. The amount it spreads depends on the amount of experience the mob is meant to drop.
      • Even if the mob doesn’t drop experience as it wasn’t killed by a player, the blocks would still spread based on the amount of experience it normally drops.
      • The experience will not be dropped in these cases.
    • The charge decays over time, faster the furthest away from the catalyst it moves.
      • If a charge decays more than 4 blocks away from the catalyst, it has a chance of creating either a sculk sensor (90%) or a sculk shrieker (10%).
      • If a charge decays more than 24 blocks away from the catalyst, it merely vanishes.
  • Drops only experience when broken without silk touch.
  • Emits a light level of 6.
Sculk Shrieker
