tile.micro_block.name is an item used to shrink the shape of blocks in specific areas of the game into smaller individual blocks for display purposes. Currently, only pre-micro blocks are available in the game.

Pre-micro blocks are generated using the modsdk interface, which creates the corresponding micro block data. Developers can then save this data as a micro block file and integrate it into their mod. After restarting the game, the micro blocks function similarly to the game's native blocks and can be found and used in the item list. Debugging addons are used for customizing block combinations, and it is written in the Python programming language.

Behavior

When holding the item, its texture is visible; however, upon placing the block, it becomes transparent.

The handheld texture is an unknown texture, but it is smaller than one pixel compared to the standard unknown texture.

Obtaining

The block can only be obtained from using /setblock or /fill, by modifying the NBT data, or through addons.

If this block is mined directly, it will take 13 minutes; however, using a pickaxe will allow the player to obtain it as a dropped item.

Sounds

tile.micro_block.name uses the sound effect of stone.
