there is no such thing as a negative prestige block.
But prestige is based on the “base prestige” (sum of prestige of blocks) + a bonus percentage based on various other parameters which may become worse due to adding a particular block.
so whilst the block doesnt have a negative prestige, adding it may cause the bonus to decrease so that the final prestige does go down.
Regarding the new system:
No block has 0 prestige with changes.
If you spam the same block 1,000,000 times it will be giving you less and less prestige each time, but never get to 0 (may get so low that you have to add the block 100 times to get an extra 1 prestige since each one is now only giving you 0.01 prestige or something, but never 0). And of course, if you then worked to balance the block variation the prestige would start increasing faster again as all those blocks that previously gave less prestige due to the…
@FayaAOP is getting less than 1 prestige per deco stone block on some of his pyramids now.
