RaxpackTweak: Solving the Sink and Canteen Dilemma in Raxpack 2
Every seasoned Minecraft modpack player knows the drill: a carefully curated pack, dozens of mods working in harmony, and then one tiny interaction breaks the whole survival flow. In the beta builds of Raxpack 2, that exact scenario played out between Cooking for Blockheads sinks and Tough as Nails canteens. The sink displayed water, but the canteen refused to fill. A minor annoyance in creative mode, a genuine problem in hardcore survival where hydration is life.
RaxpackTweak exists to eliminate that friction. This focused utility patch rewires the interaction logic so sinks properly recognize and fill Tough as Nails canteens. The result is a seamless water source at your kitchen counter, no buckets or emergency trips to a river required during the early game.
What the Patch Actually Changes
The mod performs one task and performs it well: it inserts a custom event handler that bridges the sink block and liquid container mechanics. Before this tweak, the canteen stayed empty despite visible water in the sink basin. After installation, the canteen fills according to the water quality settings you define. No extra blocks, no interface clutter, no performance overhead.
Water Cleanliness Configuration
RaxpackTweak does not force a one-size-fits-all approach. Through a simple configuration file, you control the water type dispensed from the sink. The cleanliness parameter accepts three integer values:
- 1 — Dirty Water: The harsh survival option. Drinking from the sink risks debuffs, matching the danger of natural water sources.
- 2 — Filtered Water: A middle ground for packs that introduce staged water purification mechanics.
- 3 — Clean Water: Full thirst restoration with zero negative effects, equivalent to boiled or magically filtered water.
This granularity lets modpack authors fine-tune game balance while single players can adjust difficulty to taste. Set the value to 1, and your sink becomes an unsafe source. Keep it at 3, and you have a reliable hydration station.
Glass Bottle Handling
Beyond the canteen, the tweak also covers standard glass bottles. Filling a bottle from the sink applies the same cleanliness level defined in the config. If you prefer vanilla behavior for bottles, a dedicated flag disables this extension entirely. RaxpackTweak never imposes rules; it simply broadens customization options.

Why Small Fixes Matter
