Pillars are an odd bunch, aren't they? We wanted stairs and slabs for purpur and quartz pillars - this was the way we settled on it! They link up seamlessly to cap pillars and allow for some very interesting opportunities.

Description

Are you ready for survival?

A survival-friendly and redstone-compatible expansion for many vanilla blocks:

  • Copper walls in all 8 variants. Oxidize over time and can be waxed and scraped like vanilla
  • Dripstone slabs, stairs and walls
  • Packed Mud slabs, stairs and walls
  • Dark Prismarine, Prismarine Brick and Purpur walls
  • Nether and Warped Wart slabs, stairs and walls
  • Adds Stone and Smooth Stone walls and stairs, as well as Polished Andesite, Diorite and Granite walls missing from vanilla
  • Adds Cut and Smooth Sandstone and Red Sandstone Walls and Stairs missing from vanilla
  • Adds slabs, stairs and wall variants for Chiseled Quartz, Quartz Brick, Smooth Quartz
  • Adds slabs and column capitals for Purpur and Quartz Pillars, with directional placement to blend seamlessly with vanilla
  • Packed and Blue Ice walls
  • Adds stairs and walls for Snow Blocks

Also introducing Brick and Tile block sets for Andesite, Diorite and Granite

  • Adds blocks, slabs, stairs and walls for Andesite, Diorite and Granite Bricks
  • Adds the same for Andesite, Diorite and Granite Tile, each uniquely patterned

Stairs are functionally "vanilla" and connect seamlessly to vanilla stairs, DA Addon stairs, and potentially other custom stairs. Walls are also visually "vanilla", and connect to vanilla and other DA Addon walls. They are nearly identical to vanilla functionality - certainly enough to keep the zombies out and your villagers in!

New in version 2.2+

Placing blocks onto the sides, tops and bottoms of walls, slabs, and stairs are run through a rules check, bringing even more vanilla parity to the DA Terracotta walls, slabs and stairs.

Exceptions were made to allow buttons to be placed on top of walls (like we used to!) and hang bells and signs off the sides of top-slabs. Additionally, if a wall has a post, you can tie a lead to it!

Settings

Please enable Experimental Toggles (Beta API and Upcoming Creator Features) for full compatibility.
Version 2.2.0 has improved stair functionality, taking advantage of the Minecraft 26.0 update, and are finally Realms-friendly!

Known Issues

  • Walls have a very small list of unavoidable (for now?) exceptions to vanilla behavior, including fences connecting to them (they don't connect back!). It is the sacrifice that must be paid (for now) to allow glass panes and metal bars to also connect to the walls.
  • Most of the issues with fence gates shifting when placed with custom walls has been resolved, but it may still occur when gates are placed side-by-side or above one another. They no longer shift when it is unwarranted, either! (Sorry about that!)

Future Update Plans

This will be the last non-bug-fix version until Mojang figures out what they want to do with fences, panes and bars.

Other Addons Coming Soon!

I am also working to finalize a few other stone block sets, so be on the lookout for:

  • DA Simple Calcite and Basalt Bricks

And lastly, a teaser - I am unit testing a wide-ranging interactive block set that will allow blending between various blocks - think stone blending into dirt in a 3-5 step gradient. Follow for updates!
