Minecraft has a lot of blocks, but what if they had more? Why do we need them? Please don't just add lists of things - these will be marked as spam and removed! Also, no furniture, guns, or vertical/"sideways"/"upright"/"standing" slabs (yes, we see you).

Bucket Of Paint *item*

You should be able to paint wooden blocks, bricks and stone bricks*only wooden blocks, bricks (which LatchedPath6362 suggested) and stone bricks (which fidelianerina suggested)* it should be made by using a bucket, a bucket of water and dye. it should also have a durability bar so you can only paint a certain amount of wooden blocks before it turns back into a empty normal.

    Reminds me of the old extra utilities mod almost. Though I feel it should also work on stonebrick.

    I have always wanted to paint my walls in Minecraft, and adding dye to water is a great idea. Also could it work on bricks too please?

    I think it should paint any block? I mean the people who make houses out of diamond and emerald, could paint their house!

    If it was treated like a painting that was totally flat, it could cover only one surface of the block. Then your house walls could be 1 block thick but have different color rooms inside. Turn the painting icon into an expanding painting menu to 16 colors + the standard painting (or to be really nice, expand the normal paintings to be able to choose which one as well). 😁

    I think using a cauldron to mix dyes, just how it works with armour, would be a good idea. Then just take the dyed water out with a bucket and make it change one side of the texture of a block, when used upon.
    I really love this idea!

    Right... they should add paint because it’ll keep the inside and outside different. So wooden houses can have white interior walls and etc. but I think paint should go with the texture of the block. It looks realistic that way.

     Great idea I hate how we have to put two blocks so the other side is one colour and the inside is another colour

    Instead of a bucket you could use a cauldron, and dye the water to the colour you want, that finnaly gives a good utility to the cauldron!!

    this would be so good in the game so you wouldn't need to double block you walls or exterior

    I would not like this idea because it would mess with the block data in minecraft and cause block texture glitches and lag minecraft. There would just be too much data in one chunk, changing one side of a texture block. No, I dont like this idea.

    The paint should be like a coloured transparent overlay in the block texture, so that birch planks would give a brighter colour and dark oak a much darker colour, for example. That way the individual materials are still totally relevant.

    And it should only work on one side of the block so you can have different color rooms

    I'm not going to vote for this because it feels like more of a plugin or mod or even market place content. Not regular minecraft

    I like it. This is simple and well thought out. I would say only wood could be painted. It keeps the programming to a minimum.

    I think the best way would be to put water in a cauldron, dye it then take it out and now you have so many uses
