[0.18.1] Option to not display particles still displays water splash effects

We are aware of them, but they have low priority. We have more important things to do. They go here in order not to take space in the main bug thread list.

[0.18.1] Option to not display particles still displays water splash effects

Post by valneq »

I tried the new option to not display particle effects on my toaster. In principle it works as intended: I don't see any liquids oozing out of biters, nor do trees have their leaves fall down to the ground. However, if you kill a biter spawner right next to a body of water, or chop a tree right next to a body of water, you will see a water splash effect – about half a second after the tree/spawner entity disappeared without showing any other particle effects. The water splash feels very out of place without the intermediate particle effects being shown and I don't think this is how it is intended.

At the moment water splashes are explosions, not particles

That explains it. Thank for the quick comment. And I agree, it's a minor issue.
