The Grating is a metallic grid that can be used as a flooring material in your Space Stations and other bases.

It has some interesting properties:

  • Water, Lava, Fuel, Crude Oil, Bacterial Sludge and Sulfuric Acid can flow through a Grating
  • Rocket smoke can pass through a Grating
  • Dropped items cannot pass through a Grating
  • Players can stand underneath a Grating, even in a space which is only 2 blocks tall

A Grating is very useful for covering a water channel, and it prevents items from falling into the water.

A Grating cannot be used to cover a water, lava or other liquid source block - it can only be used to cover a flowing liquid. If you place it on top of a source block, it will delete the source block (the same as happens if any other block is placed there).



Crafting Recipe

The recipe makes 4 Grating blocks.

This means that 6 iron ingots make 16 Grating blocks.



Technical Details

  • Although the basic Grating block is available in 1.8.9, the feature where fluids flow through a Grating is available in Galacticraft 4 versions for Minecraft 1.10.2, 1.11.2 and 1.12.2 only.
  • First seen in Galacticraft version 4.0.1.167
  • The fluid flow feature can be switched off in the Galacticraft Core config - there is a setting Allow liquids to flow into Grating
  • The fluid flow feature is tested OK with Optifine and other major mods. But ... it might have issues with some mods which change how liquids flow in Minecraft, or which change the appearance of flowing liquid blocks.
