How to Get a Mud Bucket and Use It

Obtaining the Mud Bucket

Craft a Mud Bucket using the crafting_shaped recipe type. The recipe takes a bucket and mud-related materials available in your world. Once crafted, the Mud Bucket sits in your inventory as a usable item.

Practical Uses

The Mud Bucket is one of four registry items in the mod, alongside Ruby, Tropical Ball, and Tropical Slime Block. Hold the Mud Bucket and use it where you need mud placed in the world. Because it is a bucket-type item, treat it like other filled buckets: right-click to place its contents, and the bucket returns to your inventory empty or refills depending on context.

If you are building with mud-themed blocks or setting up farms that need mud, keep a Mud Bucket on your hotbar. It pairs naturally with the Tropical Slime Block if you are constructing slime-based builds, since both are part of the same small item set.

Progression Note

The Mud Bucket is a crafting_shaped output. Gather the base materials first, craft the bucket, then carry it with you. There is no separate processing step — once you have the recipe materials, you can make it directly at a crafting table.
