📋 About This Mod

# Extended Block Shapes Mod 本文档有(https://www.mcmod.cn/class/4535.html)。 > Since 3.0.0, (https://github.com/SolidBlock-cn/BRRP/) mod is **no longer required**. This mod adds stairs, slabs, fences, fence gates, button and pressure plates for many vanilla blocks, along with vertical slabs, vertical stairs, quarter pieces and vertical quarter pieces that do not exist in vanilla Minecraft. A list of the contents can be found in (https://github.com/SolidBlock-cn/extshape/blob/26.2/BlockList.md). At present, this mod supports Minecraft Java Edition. Please install the relevant mod according to your MC version, and it requires Fabric API to run. Besides, for Fabric, Mod Menu is usually needed (but not required) to open mod config screen. If you have installed Extended Block Shapes and Blockus, you may also optionally install (#Blockus), to add inter-mod support for Blockus. See (https://github.com/SolidBlock-cn/extshape/blob/26.2/UpdateLog.md) for previous update logs. Welcome to join Tencent QQ group **587928350** to experience the latest update of this mod. ## Features ### Blocks This mod provides numbers of variants of many blocks. For example, wool has wool stairs, wool slab, wool wall, wool pressure plate, etc. Vertical stairs, vertical slab, quarter piece and vertical quarter piece are added by the mod; these blocks, like regular stairs and slabs, are waterloggable. The hardness, mining tools and mining time of all stairs, slabs, fences and walls are equal to their base blocks, which is the same behaviour of vanilla, instead of related to their volume. For example, a plank slab and a plank block will take the same time to mine. In vanilla, the hardness of pressure plates and buttons equals to 1/4 or 1/3 of their basic blocks. All pressure plates and buttons added in this mod have the same hardness as 1/4 of their base blocks. This mod simply extends buttons: soft buttons (wool buttons, snow buttons) trigger 60 ticks (3 seconds); hard buttons (obsidian buttons, bedrock buttons) trigger 5 ticks (1/4 second). For the actual activation time, see the table below. Like in vanilla Minecraft, all buttons and pressure plates have no collision box. | base block | button activation time | plate activation time | |-----------------------------------------|------------------------|-----------------------| | stone blocks | 20 | 20 | | wooden and bamboo | 30 | 20 | | other soft blocks | 50 | 40 | | hard blocks (obsidian, netherite, etc.) | 5 | 5 | | wool | 50 | 40 | | snow | 55 | 55 | | moss | 60 | 60 | | dirt, clay | 45 | 45 | | ore blocks | 15 | 10 | | melon, pumpkin | 35 | 25 | | quartz | 25 | 25 | | basalt | 15 | 15 | | tuff, calcite, netherrack | 25 | 20 | | deepslate (including bricks) | 10 | 10 | | unoxidized copper | 10 | 10 | | exposed copper | 40 | 40 | | weathered copper | 70 | 70 | | oxidized copper | 100 | 100 | | glowstone | 30 | 30 | | nether wart, warped wart | 45 | 45 | | amethyst | 35 | 25 | This mod also adds "double smooth stone slab" and "petrified oak planks" blocks, respectively crafted from smooth stone slabs and petrified oak slabs. Vanilla smooth stone blocks can still be crafted into smooth stone slabs.
