Block type

One block the game version has, in its own numbers, from game.block(name): hardness, light, fire and material.

Fields 11

block.name: string

The block's canonical name.

block.behaviour: string?

The rule Citadel runs for it, such as "grass", "flowing", "torch" or "falling"; nil for a block that does nothing on its own.

block.hardness: number

Seconds-scale hardness in this version's numbers; below zero is unbreakable.

block.random_ticks: boolean

Whether the random-tick pass acts on it.

block.opaque: boolean

Whether it is an opaque full cube, which is not the material's question.

block.light: number

What it gives off, 0..15, and what a step through it takes away.

block.light_filter: number

What a step through it takes off the light, 0 to 15.

block.resistance: number?

The three the block-update tables own: nil in a game that has none.

block.flammability: { catches: number, burns_away: number }?

Fire's two numbers: how readily it catches and how fast it burns away. Nil in a game with no block-update tables.

block.material: Material?

The jar's Material as five questions; nil in a game with no block-update tables.

block.drops: boolean?

The one field a pack writes. Whether a block of this kind that the world breaks by itself leaves its item: true leaves it on a lite world too, false never, nil is the world's default. Reads what this pack set.
