Block objects for in-world blocks.

[Jantomedes]

Hey.

I just want to become sure that the in-world blocks don't have their own Block objects (they just store id, metadata and tileentitys) and block object are only for each type of block.

 

The in-world blocks = these you are walking on. Make a step and your on other block.

 

As I say - this is just getting 100% sure.

You are correct.

 

Every block only exist once, the game only stores the int BlockID, Metadata and if needed a TileEntity at any given location inn the world.

 

If you want something to happen to a specific block inn the world (like rotation) then you need to use metadata or a TileEntity(if it's more complex than what metadata can hold).
