A '''sponge''' is a block that can be placed to remove [[water]] in an area around itself. This turns it into a '''wet sponge''', which can be [[smelt]]ed or placed in [[the Nether]] to dry it to be reused. Sponges can only be found in [[ocean monument]]s.
|
||
|
||
== Obtaining ==
|
||
|
||
=== Breaking ===
|
||
Either type of sponge can be mined by hand, or with any tool, dropping itself as an item; however, [[hoe]]s break sponges the fastest compared to other tools.
|
||
{{breaking row|horizontal=1|Sponge, Wet Sponge|link=Sponge|Hoe}}
|
||
|
||
=== Natural generation ===
|
||
Dry sponges do not generate in the world.
|
||
|
||
[[Ocean monument]]s can generate "sponge rooms". Each room contains an average of 30 wet sponges. See [[Ocean Monument/Structure]] for details.

=== Mob loot ===
|
||
==== Elder guardians ====
|
||
An [[elder guardian]] always drops one wet sponge when killed by the player.
|
||
{{Drop sources|Wet Sponge}}
|
||
|
||
=== Smelting ===
|
||
A wet sponge can be dried in a [[furnace]], making the sponge reusable.

|
||
}}
|
||
|
||
=== Drying ===
|
||
A wet sponge placed in [[the Nether]] dries out instantly with a puff of steam and turns into a normal sponge.
|
||
|
||
{{IN|bedrock}}, a wet sponge placed in any [[Biome#Dry biomes|dry biome]] in the [[Overworld]] dries out after a few minutes and turns into a normal sponge.
|
||
|
||
{{IN|bedrock}}, if a normal sponge comes into contact with water in a [[Biome#Dry biomes|dry biome]], it absorbs the water and immediately dries out with a puff of steam.
|
||
|
||
== Usage ==
|
||
[[File:SpongeUsage.png|thumb|A sponge absorbing water in a pond.]]
|
||
A sponge can be used to turn water into air by "absorbing" the water. A sponge instantly absorbs nearby water when it is placed next to water or when water comes into contact with it. Sponges immediately turn wet upon absorption and do not absorb any more water afterward. Wet sponges drip small water particles. Sponges in [[item (entity)|item form]] do not absorb water or become wet.
|
||
|
||
A sponge absorbs both flowing and source blocks of [[water]] up to 7 blocks away (taken as a [[taxicab distance]]) in all six directions around itself. Instead of a cube or a sphere, this effectively encloses the volume of an [[Wikipedia:octahedron|octahedron]] with vertices placed 7 units away from the center in each direction due to the game's extensive use of taxicab distance. A sponge does not absorb more than 135{{verify|Is this the actual maximum?}} blocks of water however, and water closest to the sponge is absorbed first. The absorption propagates only between adjacent water blocks and does not "jump over" non-water blocks, including air.
