Build and technical notes

• Red Wool is a colour-specific decorative block. It works well for pixel art, route marking and palettes that need an exact reusable colour.
• The recorded collision shape is “block”. Collision is a gameplay property, so do not infer it only from the block's visible model.
• Red Wool has 1 recorded Java block-state combination, so its base state is comparatively simple.
• Its recorded blast resistance is 0.8; this is separate from hardness and should be used for explosion-risk comparisons.

Java and Bedrock differences

• Red Wool exists in both tracked editions. Java uses minecraft:red_wool; Bedrock uses minecraft:red_wool.
• The available hardness, blast-resistance and preferred-tool records do not show a cross-edition conflict for this block.
