Description:

In 1.13 , all the different byte and short metadata to describe block information was scrapped, and replaced with properties. These are stored in block states, with block data. These properties are defined within data packs. We need to:

• Convert BlockData to numerical IDs Convert BlockData to numerical IDs [$75] #27
• Implement BlockData for each block type/property Implement BlockData for blocks [$140] #28
• Change setType, setData, setTypeAndData calls to use BlockData Change all block ID setters [$30] #30
• Implement BlockData in ChunkSection Implement BlockData in chunks [$50] #31
