I know it's possible to test if a block has gravity. But is it possible to set gravity to true or false on a particular block? For example, if I wanted to give a block of dirt gravity like sand and gravel?
Always those "Minecraft but (some stupid stuff)" You can create a > FallingBlock of every BlockData you want. Example: Code (Java): location.getWorld().spawnFallingBlock(location, Material.BEDROCK, 0); Returns the falling block. Just make sure you set the BlockData of that block before deleting the old one so everything with metadata doesn't get reset to the default state.
Okay. So I have to check every time someone places a block or removes a block under a block? Even removes a block, under a block, under a block, under a block... Grrr! That's gonna be super complex. I was hoping I could just set gravity to true to a whole bunch of blocks in a given area (like sand and gravel) and then let the game deal with what happens if players interact with those blocks. Nothing is ever simple :-(
it's actually easy, break the block then check with a loop the blocks above it and give them the same treatment like this: for (int i = blockYloc; i < 256; i++) { Block above = world.getBlockAt(x, i, z); //do what you want }
