Block height

Most solid blocks are 1 meter high, but certain blocks (especially slabs Slab Transparency Double slab: No Single slab: Partial (blocks light) Luminance No Blast resistance Wood: 15 Stone: 30 Tools Renewable Stone: Yes Wood: Yes (except Fake Wood) Cobblestone: Yes Stone Brick: Yes Purpur: Yes Quartz: minecraft and stairs Stairs Transparency Partial (blocks light) Luminance No Blast resistance Wood: 15 Stone: 30 Sandstone, Quartz, Red Sandstone: 4 Tools Renewable Cobblestone, Stone Brick, Wood, Purpur: Yes All others: No Stackable Yes (64) Flammable Wood: Yes minecraft ) have non-standard block heights.

A player can automatically step up from a lower to a higher height if the difference is at most 0.6 (3⃢₁₄5) of a block.

Textures

The textures on the faces of blocks are 16⃄₂⃂ₗ16 pixels.

    Piston related technical blocks

    These blocks serve a purpose when a piston is used.

    Piston Arm

    Block 34
    Type of Block Technical, Solid
    Tool Used ?

    Block 34 is a block used by the piston`s extension arm. One of the data bits of this block defines if it is a normal piston or a sticky piston extension. If block 34 is destroyed in creative mode, the piston/sticky piston will be destroyed too, and will drop pistons/sticky pistons

    Block 36

    Block 36
    Type of Block Technical, Non-solid
    Tool Used ?

    Block 36 is a block used by pistons. It is a side effect of the method of storing moving blocks as tile entities instead of entities. This block`s color, when located next to a block in the world, is black. When a block next to it is removed, it becomes invisible, can be walked through, and when light passes through it the light level decreases by 1. They are unbreakable by traditional methods, but can be removed by right-clicking. The game treats the block as stone when it comes to breaking animation and step sound. In the inventory it has the piston head texture, and it cannot be placed, it and Block 34 both have the same titles which are "tile.null.name."

    Burning Furnace

    Block 62
    Type of Block Technical, Solid
    Tool Used

    This is a block used to make furnaces shed light when smelting. It has a different texture than the normal furnace and emits particles. If the burning furnace is activated and the fuel runs out, the block will not return to a normal Furnace as of 1.5.

    Glowing Redstone Ore

    Block 74
    Type of Block Technical, Solid
    Tool Used

    This is a block used to make Redstone Ore glow when stepped on, right-clicked, or left-clicked. While the redstone ore is lit, it will emit light but will wear off after a while.

    Block 75

    Block 75
    Type of Block Technical, Nonsolid Block
    Tool Used Fist
    Main article: Redstone (Torch)

    Block 75 is a block representing an off-state Redstone Torch. When a normal Redstone Torch (standing on the top of a block) receives power from a layer below the block it`s standing on, it turns off, and stops giving power. When the torch stops getting power, it turns back to the normal on-state torch, and gives power again. For the game to know the torch stopped getting power, the game must update the block - this happens when a block near the torch changes, and when it`s turned off because of the Redstone current, this is not a problem, but when spawned into the world it will be turned off, and because no block is updated, it will stay this way, until a block updates. When the block is removed it will turn to a normal on-state torch.

    Active Redstone Repeater
