Grass Block (Minecraft 4k)

In Minecraft 4k, the grass block has a block ID of 1. It was originally the XOR Block. Unlike normal Minecraft, grass blocks do not turn into dirt when a block is placed above it.

The texture for the Grass block was generated by the game at runtime (similarly to what was done in Java Edition at that time for water and lava), rather than being stored inside of the jar as an image file.

A sinusoidal function is used to determine which of the pixels on the side belong to grass and which belong to dirt. This function becomes much more obvious when a higher-resolution version of the texture is generated.[1]
