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).

Overhaul to Magma (Through Magma Variants and Cooled Magma)

I propose a solution to a problem regarding magma.

I have believed that current magma doesnt fit in the ocean for a long time. But magma shouldnt be changed in texture because it exists in the nether and fits the nether. So I propose magma variants.

Variants: More magma variants for stone, deepslate, and other stone blocks, using the name syntax:  Magmic_Stone-Block. Current magma should be renamed to magmic netherrack.

Cooled Magma: Alongside other variants cooled magma would also be added for realism and decorative functionality. Create it by cooling magma in water (For oceans). Bubble colomns are still made. Reactive cool magma again by placing it into lava.

Magma Changes: Active magma should become lava when directly broken next to lava (renewable lava source). Dropped magma should not be destroyed in fire or lava to aid in creating active magma.

Raw Quartz Crystal Block Creation: Active magma becomes Raw Quartz Crystal (a raw ore block) when cooled next to Blue Ice. These crystals can be crafted into quartz shards for redstone components and building blocks. Prehaps Raw Crystal Quartz can be found naturally in lava pools, expanding the lore to the Nether..

Magma Bricks: 4 Cooled Magma = Magma Bricks. Slabs, stairs, walls; alongside cracked and chiseled bricks can be crafted.

This aids realism and expands upon a block that has alot of potential for creativity, and in a way that mostly doesnt hinder current magma. My suggestion isn't perfect but has alot of potential.

    This is a little to complicated for my taste, but I appreciate well thought out ideas, and it does have potential. Thank you for posting something worth reading! (No sarcasm intended.)

    I had to edit this whole post, due to the number of mistakes and how unclear some parts were. I apoligize to anyone who has already seen my post. <Wolfhawk>
