Stairs are crafted by the player from various kinds of blocks. They can be used to create compact staircases. Unlike full blocks and like slabs, players can walk on stairs without needing to jump, regardless of the gravity.
Stair types
There are three basic types of stairs:
- Stair: Normal stairway that goes up in one direction
- Inner Stair: Block that can be used to create inner corners of stairways
- Outer Stair: Block that can be used to create outer corners of stairways
List of stairs
Note: The inner and outer stairs are not shown separately here. Each material always has all 3 stair types.
Special stairs
- Cobblestone Stair, Desert Stone Stair, Sandstone Block Stair: These stairs occur naturally in dungeons
- Mossy Cobblestone Stair: When a cobblestone stair is next to water (or any water-like block) for a while, it turns into a mossy cobblestone stair
- Ice Stair and Snow Block Stair: Cools down lava
Crafting
All stairs follow the same pattern, they only differ in the input material.
In the following tables, replace all “A”s with one of the source materials listed above (i.e. wooden planks) and replace “B” with the corresponding stair (i.e. wooden stair) from above table.
