Minecraft:Red Sandstone

Template:Infobox block Red sandstone is a variant of Minecraft:sandstone. It comes in three other variants: Minecraft:cut red sandstone, Minecraft:chiseled red sandstone, and Minecraft:smooth red sandstone.

Obtaining

Breaking

The suitable tool to break red sandstone is Minecraft:pickaxe. Red sandstone needs to be broken using a pickaxe, otherwise the breaking time will increase and the block drops nothing. Template:Breaking row Red sandstone drops itself when it's destroyed.

Natural generation

Red sandstone generates at noise cave entrances in Minecraft:badlands biomes.

If a village generates some buildings inside of a badlands biome, any floating platform surrounding village buildings generate with red sandstone below red sand.

Usage

Unlike Minecraft:red sand, red sandstone is never affected by Minecraft:gravity.

Note blocks

Red sandstone can be placed under Minecraft:note blocks to produce "bass drum" sounds.

Sulfur cube

Template:In development Minecraft:Sulfur cubes have the ability to absorb red sandstone, either through picking it up or being interacted with it. This provides the regular/football effect to the mob when hitting it.
