Sugar Cane

Sugar cane is a plant that can only be placed on plantable blocks adjacent to water. It grows up to three blocks tall over time, but will instead uproot itself if its water is removed. Sugar cane can be crafted into sugar and paper.

Sugar cane can be mined instantly with anything.

When the spot a sugar cane block is placed in becomes unsuitable, such as when the supporting block is removed, the sugar cane block uproots and drops as an item. When all adjacent water is removed, sugar cane uproots on the next block update or random tick.
