Savanna Farms, No More Flooding is a lightweight Minecraft Java Edition datapack for Minecraft 1.20.1 that reworks savanna village farm structures to stop exposed water sources from spilling across nearby terrain. It targets the large farm structure, reducing the waterfalls and crop damage that can appear when villages generate on slopes.The small farm remains unchanged because it caused very few issues during testing. Houses stay intact, while compatibility is expected with packs that alter houses or add structures, but not with packs that modify village roads. For a cleaner Minecraft server experience, our BoxToPlay team recommends it to players who want savanna villages to remain practical and attractive.
