Sculk Signals Faster in Water

Hello! I think making the newly added sculk sensors as dynamic as possible is ideal, and if it travels a certain percentage faster in water, that could make all kinds of new sculk contraptions possible.

For example, maybe you need a signal to travel from one sensor to another in a certain amount of time, but want to make it as compact as possible, or only have a limited amount of space. Use the water speed up mechanic, and this could be a solution to this.

As a bonus, it also makes sense! Sound and vibrations travel faster in denser mediums, and water is far denser. In fact, sound travels over 4 times faster in water than in air!

I'm sure if this is added, redstoners and the like will find plenty more opportunities to make cool contraptions with this.

    Sculk sensors should also only be able to detect sounds that are in the same medium as themselves

    Yeah. For some reason they made waterlogged skulk sensors useless in 20w51a. And they would still be able to sense sound from other mediums just like anything would in real life.
