🟨 Falling Block

Falling Block becomes a falling entity when there are no blocks beneath it, like sand or gravel. After placement it schedules a check in 2 ticks; if the block below is free and above the minimum world height, a falling entity spawns with the block's appearance.

When both hurt_amount and max_hurt are positive, the falling entity damages entities it hits.

Example

blocks:
  default:falling_block_example:
    behavior:
      type: falling_block
      hurt_amount: -1             # damage per hit, -1 = disabled (default -1)
      max_hurt: -1                # max entities hurt per fall, -1 = disabled (default -1)
      sounds:
        land: minecraft:block.anvil.land       # sound played on landing (optional)
        destroy: minecraft:block.anvil.destroy  # sound played on break (optional)

info

hurt_amount and max_hurt must be configured together — both need to be positive (> 0) for the falling block to hurt entities.
