A Programmable Block can be programmed to do different functions, like switching lights and controlling doors. It can also be used by entering the control panel in the Terminal. It has almost unlimited functionality. One of the biggest problems is that variables are not saved between world exit and loading.
Programmable Block scripts run in a single update (single frame) and any that take too long to complete are aborted. This means it is impossible for a single run of the script to 'wait' on any event. If you want your script to run when something happens, you need to either find a way of getting another block to trigger it at the right time (an 'interrupt-driven' approach via eg. a sensor block), or modify your script to check for a precondition and set up a timer to run it regularly (a 'polling' approach). Depending on what your script is doing, one approach may be the preferred or even the only way to do it.
Since Update 01.067 each programmable block has a maximum limit of 50,000 characters for any in-game script.

| GetBlockWithName(string name) | IMyTerminalBlock | Returns a block with provided name |
IMyCubeBlock
IMyCubeBlock is base class for every terminal block.
Properties
| Property | Return Type | Description | get | set |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| IsBeingHacked | boolean | Returns true if block is being hacked | V | X |

| IsWorking | boolean | Returns true if current block is powered | V | X |
| Position | VRageMath.Vector3I | Returns current position | V | X |
IMyTerminalBlock
MyTerminalBlock is base class for every terminal block.
Properties
| Property | Return Type | Description | get | set |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| CustomName | String | Returns name of the block | V | X |
| CustomNameWithFaction | String | ... | V | X |
| DetailedInfo | String | ... | V | X |
| ShowOnHUD | boolean | Whether block shows up on hud | V | X |
Methods
| Method | Return Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| HasLocalPlayerAccess() | boolean | ... |
| HasPlayerAccess(long playerId) | boolean | ... |
| RequestShowOnHUD(bool enable) | void | ... |
| SetCustomName(string text) | void | Set the name of the block |
| SetCustomName(StringBuilder text) | void | Set the name of the block |
| GetActions(List<ITerminalAction> resultList, Func<ITerminalAction, bool> collect = null) | void | Populates list with available actions |
| SearchActionsOfName(string name,List<ITerminalAction> resultList, Func<ITerminalAction, bool> collect = null) | void | Populates list with available actions matching the name (Case Insensitive) |
| GetActionWithName(string name) | ITerminalAction | Returns action with specified name (Case Sensitive) |
ITerminalAction
ITerminal action is representation of concrete action that can be triggered.
Properties
| Property | Return Type | Description | get | set |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Id | String | Returns id of the action | V | X |
| Name | StringBuilder | Returns the name of the action | V | X |
Methods
| Method | Return Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Apply(IMyCubeBlock block) | void | Apply the action on a block |
IMyFunctionalBlock
IMyFunctionalBlock is base class for every block that can be turned on or off, it’s derived from IMyTerminal block e.g. every Functional block is Terminal block but not all terminal blocks can be turned on or off.
Properties
| Property | Return Type | Description | get | set |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Enabled | boolean | Returns true if the block is turned on | V | X |
Action List
All terminal blocks have the following properties: Interface name: this name is the name of the block in code, it can differ from the name as displayed in the building screen. E.g. Antenna interface name is IMyRadioAntenna - you need to use this interface if you want to get all antennas.
Parent: this is parent of the block (all blocks have IMyTerminalBlock as parent), this can be used for getting type of blocks instead of concrete block type. E.g. if you want to get all lights in grid you will use IMyLightingBlock, if you want only interior light you can use IMyInteriorLight.
Field: this is read only field available for block e.g. for IMyBeacon you can get Radius property. Based on this property you can increase/decrease radius of beacon.
Actions: these are all available actions for block with their names in game, so if you want to increase broadcast radius for antenna, you need to execute DecreaseRadius action for block.
