Block Serializer

Serializer ID: resourcefulbees:block/v1

This optional serializer controls the custom honey block's appearance, movement behavior, and optional beekeeper trade data. The registered honey block and its block item are derived from the honey filename rather than configured by serializer fields.

Fields

Field	Type	Required	Default	Range / notes
color	ResourcefulLib color	No	#ffffff	Number, color string/special name, or RGBA object
jumpFactor	number	No	0.5	No additional codec range supplied
speedFactor	number	No	0.4	No additional codec range supplied
tradeData	trade object	No	serializer-level TradeData.DEFAULT	See omitted-vs-explicit behavior below

Example

{
  "resourcefulbees:block/v1": {
    "color": "#f6b83f",
    "jumpFactor": 0.5,
    "speedFactor": 0.4
  }
}

The honey identifier, registered honey block, and its block item are derived from the filename. There are no block or block-item identifier fields in resourcefulbees:block/v1.

Serializer default vs explicit object

The entire block serializer is optional. If it is absent, Resourceful Bees uses its serializer-level block default internally.

tradeData has a second important distinction: omitting tradeData uses TradeData.DEFAULT (the non-tradable/zero-valued serializer default), while explicitly writing an empty object causes the trade codec's own field defaults to apply.

"tradeData": {}

is therefore not semantically identical to omitting tradeData.
