---USAGE,MOD CONTENTS AND SELECTING A MOD VERSION---
This mod follows a new modular system of mod implementation which is similar to systems followed in many other games for mods that alter the same files.
To use the mod, two pak files are need , which are included in the zip file of the mod. they are listed below
1) Copy the WATERWORLD_RESOURCE_PACK.PAK from the RESOURCE PACK Folder to the MODS folder. this PAk file is necessary for the mod to work.
2) Then select any ONE pak file from the folder called WATER WORLD SPAWNERS . it has two subfolders within it, that has different spawn categories which is used to spawn the props in the game . this is the second file that is needed. it is explained in detail below how to select one pak file from them.
 
Best used in creative mode.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The mod includes two folders - RESOURCE PACK and SPAWNERS.(YOU NEED TO EXTRACT THE ZIP FILE USING THE LATEST VERSION OF WINRAR OR 7ZIP TO GET THE FOLDERS)
The PAK file in the RESOURCE PACK folder is necessary for the mod to work.
Only one pak file must be selected from the SPAWNERS folder .
The SPAWNERS folder includes three sub folders namely V1 , V2 and V3
 
V1 - has more size variation of props. choose this if you want small sized props along with larger props
V2 - has more large sized props in general. this version will have less small sized props in general.
V3 - has more aesthetically sized props. not too large, nor too small. this version will have medium sized props in general.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
now, after selecting the version v1,v2 or v2 , then either of them will have three subfolders named 
WATERWROLD-33 ,WATERWORLD-66 ,WATERWORLD-100.
the numbers indicates the chances of finding a modded water biome
33- 1 out of every 3 water planets will have modded water biomes
66- 2 out of every 3 water planets will have modded water biomes
100 - all water planets will have modded water biomes.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
after selecting the spawn chance , then you need to choose only one pak file from the three pak files inside the folder you choose in the previous step.their names are explained below:
WATERWORLD_<density>_XX.pak
density can be either low,normal or high .
LOW - LOW density of spawning and has 10^14 possible water biomes.
NORMAL - normal density of spawning and has 10^21 possible water biomes.
HIGH - high density of spawning and has 10^28 possible water biomes.
XX can be 33 , 66 or 100 (indicates the spawn chance as explained previously)
NOTE:the high density version can cause few fps drops depending on your rig. 
After selecting the pak file, place it in the MODS folder.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---FPS ISSUES---
No fps issues when testing any version of the above mods . however a few fps may drop if you use very high versions.
 
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
---COLLISION ISSUES---
Some unused props spawned by the mod dont inherently have collisions. they are left as such for now. collisions might be added to them in a later update.
