Ok so here's the problem. I have an ore called "Glowing Meteorite" that, as its name suggests, glows. But I have a problem. I can only get the block to actually glow when the block updates, but not when the block generates. How do I solve this?
I'm assuming you're using the "Update tick" trigger for your block, which only works with manually placed blocks rather than naturally generated? In which case, try this:
Add a "glowing meteorite spawner" block that, when added to the world, replaces itself with your ore. (put the procedure to replace itself in its "when block added" trigger). Then, have the spawner block generate with the same settings as your ore, and disable your actual ore block's generation.
This should enable the update tick trigger for your original block, although I'm not sure
that changed nothing
