    Sorry, but I don't think that you can manipulate this. You could check the Bukkit javadocs to be sure about that.

    I was able to by sending fake blocks (sendBlockChange) to certain blocks, disguising them as air, but having a beacon shoot up from it. Hacky, but works/

    Hmm, that sounds very interesting. Could you make a Gist of it?

    What about placing beacon on player's position? Or even at his head? Just wondering...

    I think that that will look very ugly and strange, don't think that that's what he want. :p

    UltraMC Tried it for a mini-game once. Very ugly and resource-dependant.

    Haha sorry man, code is for someone, idea is for all.
    Basically, just get the blocks the player is looking at, do some math to see if it is a pyramid, check what the block is made out of, send air changes, not too hard.
    If you wanted just to see what I mean, just replace all iron blocks with air replacements. Make a pyramid, and BAM, done.
