Thank you SO much, this helped SO much!

How does a furnace do it then?

yeah but is there a way to set the texture but have the meta override it?

well sort of, how do I make it be on a certain side in my inventory?

Thank you meta worked!

How would I make the game update a texture on a block, or re-call the getBlockTexure() function? I need to update a tile entity's texture after it has read the direction it is facing from NBT.

I fixed the all the problems, sorry for any inconveniances

Alright, I figured out why it wasn't doing anything, but now I have a crash that is stumping me. ---- Minecraft Crash Report ---- // Shall we play a game?

I have it printlnning when the onBlockActivated checks if there is a tile entity at it, it works

I thought I might also mention I used this tutorial on the forge wiki: http://www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/Containers_and_GUIs

Thought TileDC.java would be good And BlockDC.java if you need any more classes check out the repo.

I fixed that one though I still have the problem of it not doing anything upon a right click...

So in my friend and I's mod there is this machine that acts sort of like a crafting table but just for our mod items. Problem is it doesn't do anything upon a right click: BlockScientificAssembler.java TileScientificAssembler.java ContainerScientificAssembler.java GuiScientificAssembler.java GuiHandler.java Right now we just want to get the block into an inventory, then do all the crafting logic. If it helps I'll be commiting all of this stuff to our GitHub repository. https://github.com/DarthFeder/DiscoveryCraft Also, there are no errors that I can see, it just doesn't do anything upon a right click of the block. and I have checked that it is a tile entity by pushing it with a piston, it checks out. Edit: Sorry forgot to add the main class:

Depending on what your tile entities do, you may need to employ custom packets, but since I'm assuming your single-player tests have worked out fine, you probably don't. If your blocks that use tile entities become desynced between the client and server, you'll need to implement a packet handler and sync data that way. The only real things that need @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT) are GUIs and KeyHandlers. There are probably a couple other things too, but I haven't come across them yet. It's unlikely that you need to worry about it based on what you said, though. If you start up a server and it says that it can't find a class, but it works fine in single-player, you probably need to use SideOnly(SIDE.CLIENT) on that class. I am having an annoying issue with getting mine to work on multiplayer: Heres the error report The line it traces back to is basicRefridgerator = new BlockBasicRefridgerator(1104).setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock).setUnlocalizedName("basicRefridgerator").setHardness(2.0F).setResistance(5.0F); but BlockBasicRefridgerator doesn't use net.minecraft.client.gui.GuiScreen -- in fact NONE of my code does. The thing it does use is net.minecraft.client.gui.inventory.GuiContainer; but the whole GUI class for the refridgerator is SideOnly(Side.CLIENT) I need some help with this. And yes I know I spelt refrigerator wrong -- minor error in the scheme of things.
