~the Minecraft Discontinued Features Wiki

Please include the following info

• Version range (if uncertain, give the version it was obtained / removed)
• Owners (players who posses it / had possessed it)

Blocks

Moving Piston / Block 36

• Version range Beta 1.7 - 1.16.5
• Owners Barrier Town featured some of these blocks.
• Info Moving piston blocks were able to be made when blowing up the block entity of an extending piston in the same tick that the piston extends. This was possible by blowing up a brewing stand with an end crystal and extending a piston at the right time.

This newly created block, that normally is meant to only exist for a very short period, has some interesting properties:

1. Gravity blocks will fall through it when they are falling. They will stay as a falling entity when there is a block underneath it that normally breaks falling blocks, like a fence for example.
2. Gravity blocks can sit on top of it when they are directly placed on it.
3. Fluids don't go through a moving piston block nor can blocks be places in it.
4. Block 36 can support item frames.
5. Moving piston blocks can still be made by using the world border, the block itself can be found outside and a server sided hitbox is projected on the inside of the border (image needed).

• 

  Sand will stay as a falling entity for ever when falling through a moving piston block.

• 

  Fluids will stay stationary seemingly stationary.

• 

  Gravity blocks will float on a block 36.
