Can't mine Silverfish(I think) blocks

Post by damianthedamned »

there are occasional stone blocks around that i can't mine at all or destroy with any tool. I'm assuming they're silverfish. Although they are a threat I still don't like the idea of a block i can't mine besides bedrock :(

That must be some sort of bug, ive found many silverfish blocks that ive easily broken with a stone pick.

Hmmm...decided to just check this out in code, and picks aren't currently set to be efficient vs silverfish blocks. I'm surprised nobody noticed this before now, and I'll fix that for next release.

I believe that was vanilla behavior. In vMC, picks are ineffective against silverfish blocks, but your fist is. Presumably this was intended as some sort of indication that the block was a silverfish block. I have never heard of them being totally unbreakable in vMC though.

Yup, I understand, but remember by changes so that blocks take forever to be harvested without the proper tool? There you go.
