Special stairs

• Cobblestone Stair, Desert Stone Stair, Sandstone Block Stair: These stairs occour naturally in dungeons
• Mossy Cobblestone Stair: This is the only stair which can't be crafted. A mossy cobblestone stair is created when a cobblestone stair is next to water (or river water or any other similar block) for a while
• Ice Stair and Snow Block Stair: Extinguishes nearby fire and 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.

Name	Ingredients	Input → Output
Stair	One of the stair materials (see above)	6 6

0.5.0-dev

In the development version of Minetest Game (0.5.0-dev), for each stair block, there are also inner and outer stair blocks available. They behave like normal stairs, but have a different shape. These are useful to build inner and outer corners in staircases.

Crafting

These are the recipes in 0.5.0-dev:

Name	Ingredients	Input → Output
Stair	One of the stair materials (see above)	6
Inner Stair	One of the stair materials (see above)	6
Outer Stair	One of the stair materials (see above)	7

As a crafting ingredient

In 0.5.0-dev, you can also turn stairs back into their source material.
