Biome Tinting on the Side of the Grass Block Differs from That on the Top under Certain Conditions

Because the side texture of the grass block is tinted by stand-alone hex codes in terrain_texture.json (separate from the top texture, tinted by the colormap gradients), the resulting color of the side tinting does not always match the color of the top tinting. This is most noticeable at the transition between biomes (as the “biome blend” gradient affect does not apply to the sides) and anywhere in the cherry grove (tracked by MCPE-168200). This also relates to MCPE-121836.

Steps to Reproduce:

  1. Locate the area where two biomes meet or locate a cherry grove

    1. The edge of a pale garden is a good choice as the color change is very noticeable

  2. Compare the color of the side of the grass blocks to the color of the top

Expected Result:

  • The color on the side of a grass block always matches the color on the top

Actual Result:

  • The colors are mismatched under the aforementioned conditions

Also affects if a custom biome modifies a grass blocks top tint color in a resource pack to a certain color.

The dark forest biome has an extreme example of this as well.
