FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

Currently I'm making some stuff using water. It seems like I'm going to have to create my own water using voxel manip and basic reverse engineering of the c++ water flow. I'm doing this because the param2 of the normal water is quite odd.

Currently I'm experimenting with purely source based water, making it shut off blocks that don't need to update. Then I'll move onto cloning the normal water flow. Also the code will be on my github page. New water currently isn't.
