Change Minecraft appearance or properties of blocks using commands?

I want one of the following options:

Either a glass block with the properties of a redstone block (i.e. That it transmits a signal permanently) or

transforming a redstone block into a glass block only visually, but in such a way that the properties of it remain.

I don't want to do the whole thing with the help of a resource pack, because it should look the same for every player.

If it is important: it is about 1.16.5

The reason for this is that I built a rail system and all rails are on glass so that you can still see through to some extent. Laying redstone or putting a redstone block in the middle would not look so good (redstone lamps as well). I want to activate the drive rails with it. If there's a command that these tracks are continuously active without Redstone, that would also work, but that shouldn't be the case everywhere, but only where I want.

Unfortunately, that doesn't work without modifying the game.

But what you can do: You can use the command:

/ give @s minecraft: debug_stick

give a debug stick. With this you can change the properties of blocks. So activate the rails without a redstone source.

Sounds very good in itself, but nothing happens when you click, it says that the rail should be active, but it is not…

There's a possibility!

You can place a Redstone Torch instead of the Redstone Block and spawn a falling_block at this Torch that looks like a block of grass.

Then you can walk through the grass block, but at least then it looks like the grass block is a Redstone block.

And btw you can simply place a Redstone Torch under the grass block, then the rail is powered over it and you can't see the Redstone Torch.

Glass block. I would have done it that way with a normal block of grass

Ah xD

Sry then i don't know
