Template:Rcat: blockStates: block states: BlockStateCommandParam

Specifies the block states to use for the block.

Template:Code and Template:Code

Specifies how to handle the block change. Must be one of:

• destroy — The old block drops both itself and its contents (as if destroyed by a player). Plays the appropriate block breaking noise.
• keep — Only Minecraft:air blocks are changed (non-air blocks are unchanged).
• replace — The old block drops neither itself nor any contents. Plays no sound.
• strict — Place blocks as-is without triggering block updates and shape updates.

If not specified, defaults to replace.
