All the blocks in a Chunk become the placed block

[fierceeo]

When placing a block in a chunk that is different then all the current blocks in that chunk, all the blocks in that chunk will become the block that you placed.

Screenshot:

Note: I am placing blocks using this code: Block myBlock = blockRegistry.get(BlockIds.GRASS); myBlock.setShape(ShapeIds.POLE); chunkManager.addBlock(blockLocation.subtract(0.5f, 0.5f, 0.5f), myBlock)

I am using blocks version: 1.6.3 and minie version: 3.0.0+debug

Hi, this is actually normal behaviour. What your code is doing, is changing the shape of all GRASS blocks from a cube to a pole.

What you probably want to do, is create a new block with a grass type and the shape of a pole.

Block customBlock = Block.builder()
        .name(BlockIds.getName(TypeIds.GRASS, ShapeIds.POLE)) // this is a helper method to create a generic name: "grass-pole_up"
        .shape(ShapeIds.POLE)
        .type(TypeIds.GRASS)
        .solid(true)
        .transparent(false)
        .usingMultipleImages(true)
        .build();
BlockRegistry blockRegistry = BlocksConfig.getInstance().getBlockRegistry();
blockRegistry.register(customBlock);

To retrieve the block from the registry, use:

Block grassPoleBlock = blockRegistry.get(BlockIds.getName(TypeIds.GRASS, ShapeIds.POLE));

Now you can place this block wherever you want:

chunkManager.addBlock(blockLocation.subtract(0.5f, 0.5f, 0.5f), customBlock);

Thanks for the info and the explanation, that solved my issue :)
