How do I force generated blocks to tick

I need to make a custom block that spawns naturally to tick to the value I set it to, I am aware there is a system in place to stop this (as well as a workaround where you just enable random ticking) to avoid lag but in my opinion this hinders optimization and causes more issues then it solves. The random tick speed is far too slow for the intended purpose. If anyways knows a way to get around this please let me know :)

I believe you can edit the tick speed in the code with custom code, that is the only way.

You can edit the tick rate to be 1 when making a block or is this still too slow?

If its naturally generated then it won't force tick, there's a system in place apparently that stops it and only lets you use random world tick.

Ah I understand. A workaround could possibly be for every block of that type in a certian radius of the player to place that same block there and and see if it calls the random tick then. I would have to know more about what you are trying to do to help.
