About

Ice is a translucent solid block found in cold biomes and can be mined with any tool. Admins spawn it with /give @p minecraft:ice 1 to create skating rinks, build frozen structures, or fill custom maps. It melts into water when exposed to light levels above 11 or placed in warm biomes like deserts and jungles, so placement context matters for durability.

Because ice melts predictably, it's useful for temporal builds or puzzle designs where you want the block to disappear under specific conditions. It stacks to 64 and breaks quickly with a hardness of 0.5.
