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).

Honey blocks moved by pistons should also pull players sliding down them

Honey blocks currently can move players standing on top of them when pushed by a piston. This is great, since other blocks just slide under players, so my suggestion is to extend this to players sliding down honey blocks. Currently, players can be pushed by honey blocks while sliding down them, just like being pushed by any other block, but they should also be able to be pulled by honey blocks, mimicking the behavior from when standing on top of the honey blocks.

Doing this would open up more possibilities with parkour maps, redstone contraptions moving players, and just some other fun shenanigans

    Yes! The current behavior is that when a honey block is piston-moved, entities on top are moved along with it.
    However, this should also work for entities that are adjacent to the honey block.
    This makes sense because entities slow down when adjacent to the honey block because they stick to it, so they should get pulled along by it when it is moved, in the same way as on top of it.

    Indeed!

    As of Minecraft version 1.15, Mojang (now Mojang Studios) added honey blocks to the game. These won't stick to regular slime and is 1 pixel smaller (in all directions) than a normal block. Honey blocks also have the ability to pull whatever entity is on top of them.

    Sadly they don't pull entities with them that stand next to them, even not if they where 'inside' the block.

    Why not make the honey block do that? You could be able to slide down honey blocks while being dragged over a pit, minecarts could be pulled together with rails.

    I desperately wait until this feature gets added.
