Support for Sub-IDs

[mickare]

Please add a way to set the Sub-IDs of both materials.

Either:
/v <mat>[:subid] -> /v 5:1

or like in the old times both commands /vi and /vri.

Greetings,

PS: You do a great job. It was at first a strange change, but voxel should be more powerful than before. Altough it is a bit too complex / complicated (it takes longer than before) with those setter method (/vs <key> = <value>).

I'd like to point out that if anything, Gunsmith should be supporting block states and not "sub id's" which are almost completely phased out in Minecraft.

Naming it "BlockState", "MaterialState", "Sub-Id" or "asdf-ID" is not relevant. It's still the same.
Important is that you can set it somehow. ;)

I used voxel a lot in the old days and I think continuity of basics commands is a part of a great plugin.

Side-node/-question:
gabizou mentioned that it "almost completely phased out" in Minecraft, so...
Did the internal sub-id storing of minecraft change a lot in 1.9? I mean: How does it store the orientation of stairs, "sub-id"'s etc.? And how does it send to the client?
Technically it would be illogical that it would not be a simple integer (=sub-id). So I just assume it did not change that much. Then why naming it "BlockState" when it's still the same?

[Deamon5550]

it is phased in all places but the chunk serialization in MC1.9 and for MC1.10 it will be completely removed. So adding support for a byte data value is not feasible for the future.

And I do agree with you on the complexity.

@Deamon5550 -> I splitted it into the issue #18.
