How to Disable Drowning on your Minecraft Server

In this tutorial we will show you how to allow players to breath underwater without drowning. This is useful if your server map is based underwater.

Head over to your server Console or enter into your Minecraft Server.
Enter the command /gamerule drowningDamage false (ensuring to keep the upper case letters). This will prevent players from taking drowning damage when underwater. If you want to revert this, do /gamerule drowningDamage true. Please note that these commands are case sensitive.
That's it! Players can now go for a deep dive in the ocean without having to worry about drowning!
