Info update

info_update is a debugging/placeholder block exclusive to Bedrock Edition that generates in place of blocks that were removed or not yet added.

Obtaining
The block cannot be obtained, without breaking it when already in a world. Its tool requirements are unknown. The only way to obtain it legitimately is to turn education edition on, put lab table in the inventory and disable education edition.

Even in Creative, it cannot be obtained via or, and as such can only be obtained through inventory editors, or other methods such as using behavior packs to change loot tables.

Usage
The update game blocks are a set of two similar placeholder blocks present $$. These blocks are placed in the world when the game detects an invalid block ID. (This means it is the substitute to the missing texture block that appears $$) Shovels are ineffective against this block despite the dirt sounds and texture.

They can be obtained only via inventory editing or mods. This block is used only for blocks with invalid IDs. If the block ID is valid, but has no texture, it appears as a magenta black checkerboard block instead of this block.

The block's texture is shared by reserved6.
