    Hi, I just made a mod with some custom blocks for me and a friend.
    Got the blocks in the game and all was well, untill I noticed that the blocks when off screen lets rain trough.
    Anyone ever had this problem or if anyone has any suggestions where to look to find a fix for it?
    If you need any more info just yell :)

    Unfotunately its the way Starbound stores its map data, loading them in as chunks, and unloading those offscreen after a while to save draw time. The best thing you can do is add a few drain objects - they're pretty small so not very obtrusive.

    Ok thanks, thought it was my blocks because I placed a vanilla plant block outside my block and then used ctrl to move the camera until the "window" was off screen it looked like the leaking stopped :S
