Silktouch is enabled, but will not work on Diamond, Lapis, Redstone and Coal ores - These are used for protection, bar redstone, which is reserved in case we need it later.

Silktouch will work on all other blocks as expected.

Cheers,

I'm sure you tested it, but i can confirm that this does in fact work.

Out of interest, what happens if you try to destroy diamond/redstone/coal/lapis with silk touch?

I am guessing it gives you what you would get without this ability.

The block reappears saying it cannot be mined using silk touch.

Thank you. Now I can still use it on grass and mycelin and stone.

What exactly is silk touch?

I was thinking the exact same thing... what is silk touch??

Like say if you are using silk touch, and you destroy some grass, without silk touch, the grass would turn into dirt, but with silk touch, it is always grass. So it gives you EXACTLY what you mined

Silk Touch is when you can mine, lets say diamonds and you dont get a diamond, you get the ore.

The two purposes of silk touch for most people, is so you can mine mycilum and keep the mycilum. The other reason is so you don't have to bake your stone to turn it smooth.

Aaah i see Thnx

You can also use it to mine spawners which turns them into pig spawners
