# Cauldron Mud 🧙

#### 🧠 How It Works

In vanilla Minecraft (1.19+), mud is usually created by using a **water bottle** on a dirt block — a slow and tedious process.

The **Cauldron Mud** datapack simplifies this:

1. **Fill a cauldron with water** (using a water bucket).
2. **Right-click the water-filled cauldron** with **dirt** in your hand.
3. One **dirt block** is consumed and converted into a **mud block**, which is added directly to your inventory.
4. One **level of water** is used from the cauldron per conversion.

💧 A full cauldron holds **three uses** (like in vanilla mechanics), so you can make **three mud blocks per water bucket**.

#### 🧱 Supported Block

* ✅ Converts **dirt** → **mud**

(Other variants like coarse dirt or rooted dirt are **not** accepted.)
