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).

New Trap Block: Rotting Planks

Rotting planks are a new type of wooden planks that can generate as part of shipwrecks, in swamp biomes as abandoned docks or as part of witch huts, or when a mineshaft intersects with a lush caves biome (regular planks have a chance to generate as rotten planks). Rotting planks take on a saturated deep green color and have visible cracks. These blocks will crumble instantly if you or most other mobs walk over them, causing you to fall, unless you are sprinting. This makes suspended mineshafts more dangerous to traverse. Certain lighter mobs would not cause the planks to break, however. They also break much faster when mined, but can only be obtained with Silk Touch. Otherwise, they drop nothing. They can be crafted by surrounding a moss block with 8 wooden planks of any type to get 8 rotting planks. Silverfish can also infest them. Regular wooden planks would NOT eventually turn to rotting planks over time.

    You took this from minecraftsuggestions on Reddit. This was my idea. It's okay though, I want this to be added, so the more people wanting it, the better.

    You forgot to add that they can generate in mansions.
