We've all had this problem before, your in your semi-auto water breaking farm thing and your just planting, you fall down a block and BOOM you break some farmland. Now, this might not seem like that big of a deal, but to me, who farms all the time and farms for her rupees, now that's a big deal. I farm quickly, and I feel having to go to my chests at the other end of my utopia residence and then plot the ground again, to you it might seem like nothing, but to me it's just plain annoying. It's just one of them little annoying things about minecraft. If Mojang doesn't want to remove it, why can't EMC remove it? You get my point, not big of a deal, but for players who mostly sell farm goods, its a big deal! I get so annoyed having to go back and grab my hoe as I ALWAYS FORGET IT! Anyways, I hope that EMC notices this and maybe just pops it into the to-do list, as a quick coding thing? If it's possible, i'm no coder so I don't know if it's possible. Anyway, thanks if it added.
This is normal Minecraft stuff. It's better than what it was originally when you had to sneak on farmland or it'd break.
It wouldn't hurt to take a separate water bucket so you don't jump or fall but rather sink to the lower levels. No more breaking farmland!
