They support a variety of configuration options through the [BlockTypeOptions](./server.blocktypeoptions.md) constructor argument. Block types are registered with a [BlockTypeRegistry](./server.blocktyperegistry.md) instance, allowing you to create custom blocks with unique visual representations and behaviors. <h2>Events</h2> This class is an EventRouter, and instances of it emit events with payloads listed under [BlockTypeEventPayloads](./server.blocktypeeventpayloads.md) ## Example ```typescript const stoneBlockTypeId = 10; world.blockTypeRegistry.registerBlockType(stoneBlockTypeId, new BlockType({ id: stoneBlockTypeId, textureUri: 'textures/stone.png', name: 'Stone', })); // Create a stone block at coordinate 0, 1, 0 world.chunkLattice.setBlock({ x: 0, y: 1, z: 0 }, stoneBlockTypeId); ``` ## Constructors <table><thead><tr><th> Constructor </th><th> Modifiers </th><th> Description </th></tr></thead> <tbody><tr><td> [(constructor)(options)](./server.blocktype._constructor_.md) </td><td> </td><td> Creates a new block type instance. </td></tr> </tbody></table> ## Properties <table><thead><tr><th> Property </th><th> Modifiers </th><th> Type </th><th> Description </th></tr></thead> <tbody><tr><td> [colliderOptions](./server.blocktype.collideroptions.md) </td><td> `readonly` </td><td> [TrimeshColliderOptions](./server.trimeshcollideroptions.md) </td><td> The collider options for the block type. </td></tr> <tr><td> [id](./server.blocktype.id.md) </td><td> `readonly` </td><td> number </td><td> The unique identifier for the block type. </td></tr> <tr><td> [isLiquid](./server.blocktype.isliquid.md) </td><td> `readonly` </td><td> boolean </td><td> Whether the block type is a liquid. </td></tr> <tr><td> [isMeshable](./server.blocktype.ismeshable.md) </td><td> `readonly` </td><td> boolean </td><td> Whether the block type is meshable. </td></tr> <tr><td> [name](./server.blocktype.name.md) </td><td> `readonly` </td><td> string </td><td> The name of the block type. </td></tr> <tr><td> [textureUri](./server.blocktype.textureuri.md) </td><td> `readonly` </td><td> string </td><td> The URI of the texture for the block type. </td></tr> </tbody></table>
