Improved buckets

Ever get sick of carrying around so many buckets? Like when filling up a huge fish tank or lava moat?

BETTER BUCKETS! (Each bucket can only hold 1 type of liquid at once)

Iron buckets hold 1 source block (like always)

Gold buckets hold 3 

Diamond buckets hold 10

We’ve all experienced it, tons of items and no clue which ones to put away... Just another thing to help inventory clutter!

  Sounds very useful and great idea, and not too OP as well, I really like it. But I think it could be done more believably if it was done via enchanting rather than by using different ores. In reality a gold bucket would melt much faster than an Iron bucket when holding lava and making them from different materials wouldn't increase their internal volume. But by having the ability to enchant buckets you could have more ways to balance the game regarding the use of buckets. For example enchantments could include:

  unmelting (which would mean you actually need this enchantment before you can carry any lava)

  unbreaking (this is needed to get your bucket back after being used to fuel a furnace with lava)

  capacity 1,2,3 and 4 (which increases the buckets capacity to 8,16,32 and 64 respectively)

  bottomless (a rare enchantment only granted after combining many capacity 4 buckets but which gives you infinite source blocks. Gather one lava and you'll have infinite lava blocks (when combined with unmelting). Gather 1 water and you'll have infinite water source blocks. Gather 1 fish in a bucket and you'll have infinite fish to fill your aquarium. You'll also have the ability to empty large parts of the nether of lava by being able to gather infinite lava source blocks (when combined with unmelting) Note that lava obtained from/within this bucket would probably need a different ID so that it cannot be used to power a furnace, either by placing the bucket in a furnace or filling other buckets, but otherwise would be identical. Or perhaps maybe we should be able to fuel a furnace with it?

  Hey Allan Porter! I LOVE using enchantments instead of different ores, how could I have skipped past that! Allow me to streamline your idea.
  So, instead of unmelting we could just use fire resistance on buckets as well as armor.
  I love capacity but it seems a bit too op so we will just lower those maximum source block numbers and that’s all good. And bottomless? I think that is just SO cool, but instead of that weird combining thing you mentioned it could just be found in buried treasure (although very rarely)
  ALSO the fire resistance needed to pick up lava would be great because it could prevent players from getting that cheaty diamondless nether portal.

  Ah yes, fire resistance, I forgot about that lol, good call. Yes I'd be very happy with your stream lined approach. Maybe half the capacities to 4, 8, 16 and 32? Having 32 would be similar to having 36 buckets in an inventory full of buckets. Or do you think it should be less than that? Of course what I really want is a bottomless bucket haha but I agree it would have to be hard to get. It's not really OP, you can get infinite water in the ocean an infinite lave from caves/the nether. It's just a massive time saver. I like the idea of finding it in buried treasure. It would be like finding some magical lost artifact that once belonged to the one that built the nether, but it now belongs to you! So much story possibilities from just a bucket lol!

  hello Allan porter you have a very good idea.i agree why you dont put as a seprate feedback.i want bucket will up as 3,7,15 or less ; bcoz you see other minecraft enchantment like looting only increase 1,2 percent on each step.i also not agree with bottomless it is not in minecraft theme to get unlimted.think,who will than go to face lava and there will be no adventure left.it can output 32 block input of 1

  I'm sorry but this doesn't make any sense. Changing the material of a bucket doesn't change the amount it can carry.
