Blocks²

Blocks²

_{_aka – Blocks Squared_}

Combine multiple blocks into a single position. Stack a lever inside a fence, a candle on a trapdoor, or two trapdoors and a sign into one block — each block should work exactly as it normally does.

The main idea was to remove the “one block per block” rule, as weird as that sounds.

General Info

Sneak + right-click while placing a block to combine it with whatever’s already at that position. The resulting block will retain all of it’s normal block-state properties, each block inside the stack will show it’s own independent breaking animation.

Controls

• There is a single keybind which is unbound by default, this keybind disables the block stacking when toggled to allow for normal vanilla building.

Extra Info

• Up to 8 blocks can share a single position – this is changeable in the config.
• A block that would completely fill the block (occluding everything else) can’t be added, minus for most transparent blocks (eg: leaves, glass)
• Signs support standing and wall placement, full text editing, but not dye/glow ink; hanging signs aren’t supported yet as well.
• Redstone comparators, pistons, and observers don’t yet interact with combined blocks — that’s on the roadmap.
• The mod allows you to stack _any_ block entity, although some may not be supported yet and will be visually there only, this even works with Create stuff, visually only ofc.
• So-far the mod seems to work with any other mod, and yes it works with Shaders.
