Mars Sea gets drained really easily now
Heyo. While this isn't a bug per say, I'm pretty sure it's still an issue that's not intended.

I went mining on Mars past the sea layer with a queen drill, dug a shaft to the bottom and a few short side tunnels. Now the sea has been drained a fair chunk and there is no way to fill it back up, hindering mob spawning.

Here's a screenshot:

I was lucky and didn't do much digging before noticing this, but it's easily possible to screw yourself over and permanently drain the sea.

Most areas have open ocean that will re-fill areas if mined, but mars has a limited amount of water and you can drain it easily. But given that there's a lot of questions as to the existence of water on mars, I thought this was actually a neat behavior, and the mob there, while convenient, is in no way necessary to complete the game (it gives scales and ink, which other sea creatures already give).

Oh, okay. I thought that there were unique mobs in the Mars ocean which gave drops that couldn't be easily found elsewhere.
