<br />
'''Block properties''' control how different [[Minecraft:block]] types interact with various gameplay [[Minecraft:mechanics]]. While some block behaviors are specific to individual block types, such as the ability to open a [[Minecraft:chest]] or activate a [[Minecraft:lever]], block properties specify how blocks behave in response to interactions that can occur with ''any'' block. For example, [[Minecraft:fire]] may attempt to spread to any nearby block, in which case the [[Minecraft:flammable]] block property is used to determine if the spread succeeds. Similarly, a [[Minecraft:piston]] may attempt to push any block, and the [[Minecraft:push reaction]] block property is used to determine if the push succeeds, fails, or destroys the block.<br />
<br />
For the most part, block properties are really properties of block ''types'', not properties of individual blocks. For example, if a given block is [[Minecraft:flammable]], all blocks of the same type will be as well. However, the values of some block properties can vary depending on the given [[Minecraft:block state]]—for example, [[Minecraft:fence gates]] are [[Minecraft:collidable]] when closed, but not when open.<br />

=== Solid ===<br />
{{Main|Block properties/Solid (legacy)}}<br />
<br />
The ''legacy solid'' block property, usually just called ''solid'', determines if a block is considered "solid" for a number of game mechanics. It is distinct from many other notions of solidity, such as whether the block is [[Minecraft:opaque]], [[Minecraft:conductive]], [[Minecraft:collidable]], is a [[Minecraft:full block]], or allows [[Minecraft:mob spawning]]. A slight variant of the legacy solid property is known as ''blocks motion'' for historical reasons, though it is also unrelated to whether or not a block is collidable.<br />
<br />
Many gameplay mechanics are affected by the legacy solid property, including support for certain attached blocks like [[Minecraft:candles]], conversion of [[Minecraft:farmland]] to [[Minecraft:dirt]], destruction of [[Minecraft:cactus]], summoning of [[Minecraft:iron golem]]s, and [[Minecraft:pathfinding]]. Additionally, the blocks motion property influences random [[Minecraft:teleportation]] and certain [[Minecraft:fluid]] mechanics.<br />
<br />
=== Collidable ===<br />
{{Main|Solid block}}<br />
{{See also|Hitbox#Block collision}}<br />
<br />
The ''collidable'' block property determines whether or not a given [[Minecraft:block]] has a [[Minecraft:collision box]] that [[Minecraft:players]], [[Minecraft:mobs]], or other [[Minecraft:entities]] cannot move through. It is distinct from whether or not the block is considered [[Minecraft:legacy solid|solid]] or [[Minecraft:movement-blocking]] for certain other gameplay mechanics. Most blocks are collidable, but the following blocks are not:<ref>https://joakimthorsen.github.io/MCPropertyEncyclopedia/?selection=has_collision&filter=(has_collision:Yes)</ref><br />

=== Conductive ===<br />
{{Main|Conductivity}}<br />
<br />
The ''conductive'' block property determines whether a given [[Minecraft:block]] can conduct [[Minecraft:redstone signal]]s when [[Minecraft:powered]] by [[Minecraft:redstone component]]s. For historical reasons, conductive blocks are often called ''solid'' or ''opaque'' and non-conductive blocks are often called ''transparent'', but conductivity is separate from whether a block is considered [[Minecraft:legacy solid|solid]], [[Minecraft:collidable]], or [[Minecraft:opaque]].<br />
<br />
As a rule of thumb, [[Minecraft:opaque]] [[Minecraft:full block]]s (like [[Minecraft:stone]]) tend to be conductive while partial blocks (like [[Minecraft:slabs]]) or [[Minecraft:transparent]] blocks (like [[Minecraft:glass]]) tend to be non-conductive. However, there are numerous exceptions. For example, [[Minecraft:glowstone]] and [[Minecraft:observer]]s are not conductive despite being opaque [[Minecraft:full block]]s, while [[Minecraft:mud]] and [[Minecraft:soul sand]] are conductive despite not being full blocks.<br />
<br />
=== Valid spawn ===<br />
{{See also|Mob spawning}}<br />
<br />
The ''valid spawn'' block property determines whether ordinary [[Minecraft:mobs]] can [[Minecraft:mob spawning|spawn]] on top of a given [[Minecraft:block]] (assuming their other spawn conditions are met).<br />
<br />
As a rule of thumb, blocks with a full, solid top face ''tend'' to allow mob spawning while other blocks tend not to. For example most [[Minecraft:full blocks]] allow mob spawning, as do upside-down [[Minecraft:stairs]] and [[Minecraft:azalea]]s, as their top face is solid and spans the entire block. However, there are ''numerous'' exceptions. For example, mobs cannot spawn on [[Minecraft:glass]] or [[Minecraft:bedrock]] even though they are full blocks, and mobs can spawn on [[Minecraft:soul sand]] even though it is not. A full list is given below.<br />

=== Flammability ===<br />
{{Main|Fire#Spread}}<br />
<br />
Three related block properties determine how [[Minecraft:fire]] spreads to and interacts with other [[Minecraft:block]]s:<br />
<br />
* The ''ignite odds'' property controls how quickly a block catches fire if nearby [[Minecraft:fire]] is available to spread there.<br />
<br />
* The ''burn odds'' property controls how quickly a block that is currently on fire burns away.<br />
<br />
* The ''ignited by lava'' property determines whether or not nearby [[Minecraft:lava]] can cause the block to catch fire.<br />
<br />
The word ''flammable'' is often used to describe blocks capable of burning away—that is, blocks that have ''burn odds'' greater than zero—but it is also sometimes used to describe blocks capable of catching fire at all.<br />
<br />
Some blocks can be ignited by fire but not by lava and vice versa. For example, [[Minecraft:hay bale]]s can be ignited by fire but not by lava, while [[Minecraft:mushroom blocks]] are ignited by lava but cannot be ignited by nearby fire. Blocks in the latter category never burn away, and they usually extinguish themselves quickly. The only exceptions are blocks that burn forever, such as [[Minecraft:netherrack]] and [[Minecraft:soul sand]].<br />
<br />
=== Replaceable ===<br />
{{info needed section|"replaceable" is also a [[Minecraft:block tag]]; discuss functional differences between that block tag and this block property}}<br />
If a [[Minecraft:block]] has the ''replaceable'' block property, blocks placed on, against, or in the same location as the replaceable block replace it rather than being placed on or against it. For example, placing a block on a block containing [[Minecraft:short grass]] replaces the grass with the block. Most blocks are not replaceable, but the following blocks are:<ref>https://joakimthorsen.github.io/MCPropertyEncyclopedia/?selection=replaceable</ref><br />

}}<br />
<br />
The replaceable block property is also used by a few other game mechanics:<br />
<br />
* [[Minecraft:Falling blocks]] that fall onto replaceable blocks replace them.<br />
* [[Minecraft:Huge fungi]] may replace replaceable blocks when generated or grown.<br />
* [[Minecraft:Nether portal]]s may replace replaceable blocks when [[Minecraft:Nether portal#Portal creation|generated]].<br />
* [[Minecraft:Cobwebs]] spawned by the [[Minecraft:weaving]] effect may replace replaceable blocks.<br />
<br />
=== Suffocates ===<br />
{{Main|Suffocation}}<br />
<br />
The ''suffocates'' block property determines whether an entity [[Minecraft:suffocate]]s if its head is inside a block.<br />
<br />
Usually, blocks are suffocating if and only if they are [[Minecraft:full blocks]] that also [[Minecraft:block motion]]. For example, [[Minecraft:stone]] suffocates mobs, but [[Minecraft:slabs]] do not (because they are not full blocks), and neither do [[Minecraft:chorus flower]]s (because they are not considered motion-blocking). However, there are some exceptions:<br />
<br />
* [[Minecraft:Copper grate]]s, [[Minecraft:glass]], [[Minecraft:stained glass]], [[Minecraft:tinted glass]], [[Minecraft:leaves]], and [[Minecraft:mangrove root]]s do not suffocate mobs despite being motion-blocking full blocks.<br />
<br />
* [[Minecraft:Dirt path]], [[Minecraft:farmland]], [[Minecraft:mud]], and [[Minecraft:soul sand]] suffocate mobs despite not being full blocks.<br />
<br />
=== Blocks vision ===<br />
<br />
The ''blocks vision'' block property determines whether the player can see while their head is inside a [[Minecraft:block]]. If a block is vision-blocking, the player's screen is obscured by a darkened version of the block's texture if their head is inside the block.<br />
<br />
Almost all blocks that are [[#suffocates|suffocating]] are also vision-blocking and vice versa. However, there are a few exceptions:<br />
<br />
* [[Minecraft:Snow]] blocks vision if it is 8 layers tall, but it never suffocates.<br />
<br />
* [[Minecraft:Trial spawner]]s and [[Minecraft:vault]]s do not block vision but do suffocate.<br />
<br />
=== Push reaction ===<br />
{{Main|Push reaction}}<!--<br />
Note: The name "push reaction" comes from the [[Minecraft:obfuscation map]], where PushReaction is an enum with five values. The fifth value is IGNORE, which is only used by entities, not blocks. It is something of a misnomer, since it also controls what happens when a block is pulled, not just pushed, but I don't think the discrepancy is too egregious. --><br />
<br />
The ''push reaction'' block property determines what happens when a [[Minecraft:piston]] attempts to push or pull a [[Minecraft:block]]. It has four possible values:<br />
<br />
* <code>normal</code>: The block can be pushed and pulled by pistons.<br />
* <code>push_only</code>: The block can be pushed by pistons but cannot be pulled.<br />
* <code>destroy</code>: The block breaks when pushed and cannot be pulled.<br />
* <code>block</code>: The block cannot be pushed or pulled. If a piston must push the block to extend, the attempt to extend fails.<br />
<br />
If a block's push reaction is anything other than <code>normal</code>, the block also does not stick to [[Minecraft:slime blocks]] or [[Minecraft:honey blocks]].<br />
<br />
== Relationship between solid, opaque, and similar properties<span class="anchor" id="Solid properties"> </span>==<br />
{{See also|Solid (disambiguation)|Transparency}}<br />
<br />
There is no single property that determines if a [[Minecraft:block]] is a "solid block" for all gameplay mechanics. As such, the words ''solid'', ''opaque'', and ''transparent'' are colloquially applied to several different block properties, which can cause confusion. Much of this confusion stems from the fact that earlier versions of ''Minecraft'' used a single property to determine which blocks were [[Minecraft:opaque]], [[Minecraft:conductive]], caused [[Minecraft:suffocation]], or allowed [[Minecraft:mob spawning]], so the words ''solid'' and ''opaque'' were (and often still are) used synonymously to refer to all three.<br />
<br />
Further confusing matters, although contemporary versions of ''Minecraft'' use distinct block properties to control distinct behaviors, the behavior of many blocks added in earlier versions has been intentionally preserved. This can result in surprising inconsistencies and exceptions with no intuitive explanation. For example, mobs cannot spawn on or suffocate inside [[Minecraft:glass]] blocks even though they are [[Minecraft:full blocks]]. This can create the mistaken impression that mobs cannot spawn on any block that is not fully [[Minecraft:opaque]], but in fact mobs may spawn on top [[Minecraft:slabs]], upside-down [[Minecraft:stairs]], [[Minecraft:azaleas]], [[Minecraft:slime blocks]], and many other transparent blocks.<br />
<br />
Furthermore, even if explicit terms like ''opaque'', ''conductive'', and ''valid spawn'' are used instead of the catch-all term ''solid'', some game mechanics ''do'' depend on whether a block is considered "solid" in a more conventional sense, and several different mechanisms are used to make that determination even within that category:<br />
<br />
* Some mechanics, such as [[Minecraft:enderman]] teleportation, determine whether a block is solid using the [[Minecraft:legacy solid]] block property.<br />
<br />
* Other mechanics, such as [[Minecraft:iron golem]] summoning, determine whether a block is solid by checking if it a [[Minecraft:full block]], which is a property of its [[Minecraft:collision box]].<br />
<br />
* Still other mechanics, such as determining whether a block can have a [[Minecraft:torch]] or [[Minecraft:button]] attached to one of its faces, uses a separate system that checks geometric properties of the supporting block's "support box", which is usually the same as its collision box, but is different for certain blocks.<br />
<br />
As the word "solid" is sometimes used to refer to all of these things, the set of "solid blocks" can be difficult to precisely define without additional context to determine which notion of solidity is being discussed.<br />
