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).

Ender orb useful for redstone and security!

Ender orb: Crafted with an eye of ended above redstone dust then surrounded by 7 quartz in the remaining crafting slots. This conduit sized block can be placed on all 6 sides of blocks. It has the ability to detect approaching entities from 60 blocks away which upon detection will glow a light level brighter for every 6 blocks the entity approaches, it will also give off a redstone signal that increases or decreases in strength depending on how far away the entity is. This would be useful for security systems, many redstone devices and even just as decoration.

    It should be accessible as a tool block with a menu that allows you to pick which entities you want to trigger it.

    Perhaps you could tap the ender orb with a certain mob drop, the mob drop affecting which mob/mobs it detects? I feel that would be quite a unique and interesting way. Perhaps the orbs eye could change colour depending on what it’s been set to detect?
