Facing Custom Data

The FACING custom data allows you to set the direction a block is facing. This is applicable to blocks that have a distinct front, back, and sides, such as furnaces, chests, or pistons.

• Name: FACING
• Type: String
• Applicable Materials: Any block that implements Directional (e.g., FURNACE, CHEST, PISTON, DISPENSER, DROPPER).

Usage

To set the FACING custom data, you provide a string representing the desired BlockFace. Valid values typically include NORTH, SOUTH, EAST, WEST, UP, and DOWN, depending on the block.

Example

To make a generated furnace face north:

/oregen set customdata my_furnace FACING NORTH

To make a generated piston face upwards:

/oregen set customdata my_piston FACING UP
