Hello! I was wondering how I would go around achieving an effect such as the Tesseract from Thermal Expansion 1.7.10, in forge 1.15.2. is there a specific method I need to follow to do something like that. A pointer in the right direction would be appreciated

How would I do that , not sure how to Check in a radius

Hi so im using forge version 1.12.2. Trying to work on a pretty interesting mod with good knowledge of java and how it works, just not the Forge API and i have trouble sometimes finding where to properly learn the entire API and how it works, there should be a forge school or something. Anyways, i'm trying to create a Multiblock structure. Basically i'm making a sacrifice bowl, that needs to be surrounded by 3 1x1 shrine blocks 2 blocks spaced out from each other. I want the shrines to spawn particles to move toward the bowl then eventually transforming the contents of the bowl (just a container with a inventory of 4 **3 ingredients, 1 output**) into an item and ejecting it out of the inventory as an item spawn. I'm not sure if i need to use multiblocks to do this, but it does require multiple blocks to work (all be it not connected). It's more of a crafting altar i suppose, similar to thaumcraft if that is a good reference point. Any assistance would be much appreciated, thanks!

You are literally amazing, i'll try this when I get back to my code later tonight, thanks!

Hi there! I'm trying to figure out how to make particles move around in specific ways, the only problem being is that I am very bad at math. (As in I have a major problems learning when it comes to specifically mathematics) I understand Java and know how to program, got a 4 on an AP Comp Sci A test (no idea if that means anything). I just seem to struggle with the Math side of things no matter how hard I try to understand it. I suppose i'll try to explain what i'm trying to do with the particles and perhaps someone could explain to me exactly what to do / understand how to do it so I can apply the knowledge in the future. List of Effects i'm trying to accomplish for my mod: - Vacuum Effect (Particles spawning in random locations in a spherical radius, and moving towards a center point starting slow and rapidly picking up speed as it gets closer to the center point) - Orbit Effect (Particles moving around in an ring like orbit, would like to cover how to rotate the axis' to make the ring turn) - Wave Effect (Particles moving in a wavy line from Point A to point B just picture a squiggly line in 3D) I know this is a lot to ask for, just please don't go tell me to study math or something because I'm already trying and struggle with it everyday. Thanks! - EmeraldJelly P.S. I already know how to physically spawn particles at specific locations I just don't know the math / functions to manipulate them. I.E. Make them move.

Wow. You are very helpful! i'll give that a try, thanks for not just posting a link to a stackoverflow

Bump

Yes, the particles are spawning, though they aren't moving in a circle like intended.

I have ellipse math already, check the hastebin link. And that link isn't very helpful to me, sorry.

Hi! I'm trying to figure out how to make a ring of particles around a specific location. Can someone please help me with that, thanks! <3 Here is the code I have so far, math I believe is right but it simply isn't working. https://hastebin.com/etizajuhoj.cpp The spawnParticleGlow code is as followed. public static void spawnParticleGlow(World world, float x, float y, float z, float vx, float vy, float vz, float r, float g, float b, float a, float scale, int lifetime) { if (MysticalLib.proxy instanceof ClientProxy) { counter += random.nextInt(3); if (counter % (Minecraft.getMinecraft().gameSettings.particleSetting == 0 ? 1 : 2 * Minecraft.getMinecraft().gameSettings.particleSetting) == 0) { ClientProxy.particleRenderer.spawnParticle(world, LibRegistry.PARTICLE_GLOW, x, y, z, vx, vy, vz, lifetime, r, g, b, a, scale); } } } Thanks! :)

Thanks

Thanks so much! Do you think you can link or refer a tutorial to me?

So if you are tired of modding and don't enjoy it, why do it. If you're frustrated thats understandable but please, if you do not enjoy doing something, don't do it. I can't offer help because I am not very experienced in modding but, that is the only advice I can give to you.

Hey, so im looking to create a new type of energy using forges energy system thingy... To give some background as to what I mean exactly here's an example: EU is an Type of Energy, RF, AE, and so on... I want to create my OWN type of energy and make it so my blocks only accept it. How do I do this and yes I checked http://jabelarminecraft.blogspot.com/p/minecraft.html and while it is helpful, it doesn't really show me how I can do this specifically. The part im looking for that blog post was vague about it. Specifically LexManos' Explaination on it: "IF modders want to be discriminating and create sub-energy systems then they can. It's as simple as 'public interface ThaumcraftMana extends IEnergyStorage{}' Caps.register(ThamcraftMana.class...)" Say for instance I want to create something called "ArcaneFlux" how would I go around doing that from the start. The only code I have so far for it is an interface but I dont really know how I can well.. use it. Here is the code I guess: package emeraldjelly.mystica.api; import net.minecraftforge.energy.IEnergyStorage; public interface IArcaneFlux extends IEnergyStorage {} Thanks, EmeraldJelly

Yeah ok I did that, still does not work.

Ok items1.remove(itemstack); Then return items1.isEmpty(); Still does not work.

What list then

In the time it took you to respond I did, I still do not have any clue what it's doing, its being weird... Can't explain it.. Ill send the code that has changed.

oh shit my bad itemStacks.remove(itemStacks); Still doesn't work btw..

itemStacks.remove(items1); return items1.isEmpty();

List<Item> items1 = ((List) ((ArrayList) items).clone()); Better? It still does the same thing.

Ok. I managed to get it working using the debugger.. Sort of. But the one issue that I have is that it does not go through the entire recipe, and it does not let me use the recipe twice, I assume because it still thinks it has more stuff in it but idk. Say the recipe calls for WAX and a SNOWBALL. Once I throw in the Wax, it instantly thinks its a complete recipe and outputs the correct item. That is not what I am aiming for. Here is my code, really would appreciate one last consultation to tell me what is going wrong because I cannot figure that out. Cauldron Recpies TE Cauldron Recipe Block Class

ok but the problem isnt exactly that, its not adding the items it recognizes to my list. The crash only happened when I threw on the items, otherwise, it didnt crash or do anything.

I added a simple != null check, but again I think the problem is, it's not Capturing the items correctly, can you help me fix that, I believe its the only thing stopping this from working properly.

It Crashes my game......
