Block Information
by Zkev1
Block Information is a NeoForge utility that shows details about a block when a player right-clicks it with the Block Information Stick.
What it does
Right-clicking a block with the Block Information Stick opens its details in chat: the block name, its hardness and how long it takes to break, its light level and how much light it blocks, and more. Players can look up these values in-game instead of checking external tools or commands.
The information covers the registry name and Minecraft ID, the block's position in the world as X, Y and Z, its enchant power bonus (as provided by bookshelves, for example), its inventory slots and whether it is solid. It also reports whether the block reacts to bonemeal, and for energy blocks the stored energy, the energy capacity, and whether the block extracts or receives energy.
The mod runs on NeoForge for 1.21.1 only, and it is server-side only, so players join without installing anything. Its files are released under All rights reserved, so it is not open source. The latest file is 1.0.0, published on 2025-09-27.
