A block of amethyst, known internally as an amethyst block, is a block found in amethyst geodes or crafted from amethyst shards. It can be placed next to a sculk sensor to "relay" received vibrations to other sculk sensors.
A block of amethyst can be obtained by mining it with any pickaxe. When mined using any other tool, it drops nothing.
Blocks of amethyst generate naturally on the inner wall of amethyst geodes, with calcite and smooth basalt making up the next two outer layers.
A block of amethyst makes a quiet overlay sound when generally interacted with, and makes louder sounds when hit by projectiles.
When a block of amethyst is placed adjacent to a sculk sensor or a calibrated sculk sensor, if that sculk sensor receives a vibration, the block of amethyst re-emits its frequency as a separate vibration at its location. This vibration can then be detected by another sculk sensor, allowing a chain of sculk sensors and amethyst blocks to be created, transmitting a signal wirelessly.
