Placed blocks are invisible until updated
Sun, 08/30/2026 - 15:46 (edited)

Hey all! The title kinda already says it. I am trying to place a new wall of blocks with an item, when it is used on an existing wall. Basically pushing it back a block. (little vague, I don't know how to explain it better) It's a room in a different dimension and when I use the item to extent the wall, it basically turns into ghost blocks. However when I exit the dimension and re-enter it, then the blocks are properly updated. I would prefer it if the blocks updated immediately.

I tried all the things I could find thusfar;

  • only letting it run on the server
  • using a parced /fill command instead of the Place procedure
  • Force updating the chunks visually

I do not know how to embed an imgur image. But if you click on the broken link, in the code; all the stuff above it just a way to get the vars I need to get the wall in the right place.

I figured it out, if you are running into the same issue. Make sure there are no early returns (!!!) and that it runs exclusively on the server by using [not[is provided work client-side]]
