    Represents a block in a dimension. A block represents a unique X, Y, and Z within a dimension and get/sets the state of the block at that location. This type was significantly updated in version 1.17.10.21.

    Properties

    dimension: Dimension

    Returns the dimension that the block is within.

    isAir: boolean

    Returns true if this block is an air block (i.e., empty space).

    This property can throw when used.

    LocationInUnloadedChunkError

    LocationOutOfWorldBoundariesError

    isLiquid: boolean

    Returns true if this block is a liquid block - (e.g., a water block and a lava block are liquid, while an air block and a stone block are not. Water logged blocks are not liquid blocks).

    This property can throw when used.

    isValid: boolean

    Returns true if this reference to a block is still valid (for example, if the block is unloaded, references to that block will no longer be valid.)

    Returns or sets whether this block has water on it.

    This property can throw when used.
