Material type?
Notch has mentioned a "material type" (at least, I think that's what he called it) for various blocks; I'm aware of three different types - stone, glass, and wood. He has mentioned it specifically in relation to Glowstone, which used to be a stone material type, but got changed to glass in the same update that it was changed to drop more Glowstone Dust and require less to craft (all as I recall, at least). Would it be possible to get this info for each block as well? 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 21:48, 4 September 2011 (UTC)
 * It used to be glass, and it's now stone. Not the other way around. Cool12309(T 22:02, 4 September 2011 (UTC)

 * Thanks, that's awesome.
 * I don't suppose there's any other data you're aware of that may be of interest? How about for block subtypes, would you be able to pull information on them? And how about items and entities? 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 07:18, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
 * Those should be all static and local properties of blocks of interest. Material type was omitted on purpose, but then I realized it's better to include it. Subtype is only decorative and makes no functional difference, I think it's not needed. For items, they are more heterogeneous, and entities are even more, that is, they don't have many comparable properties to constitute a list. And their current properties listed in corresponding articles are quite sufficient in my opinion. If they're really needed, I can do that. Xfs 10:02, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
 * All right, thanks for the explanation. =) 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 17:00, 6 September 2011 (UTC)
