[[1.7.10] When entity is on block Y+1 give potion effect?]

Hey there, I was wondering what I would be looking at so that I can make it so that when an entity stands on top of a block, they get a potion effect.

 

E.g.

When player stands on <block> give entity at Y+1 poison 1

[Oredictionary issues]

This means that

itemRegist.ingots

is

null

at the point where this code runs.

 

THAT WOULD BE WHY!

I always do that and never notice why v_v Thanks

I tried registering ores before registering items... Sometimes I feel like a complete idiot

[Oredictionary issues]

Hey, I am getting this crash after registering ores: http://pastebin.com/SnFrfL3N

I understand that it's an issue with damage values, but I don't get why it is doing it...

Here's the code registering the oreDict stuff:

	OreDictionary.registerOre("ingotCopper", new ItemStack(itemRegist.ingots));
	OreDictionary.registerOre("ingotLead", new ItemStack(itemRegist.ingots, 1, 3));
	OreDictionary.registerOre("ingotTin", new ItemStack(itemRegist.ingots, 2, 3));
	OreDictionary.registerOre("ingotNickel", new ItemStack(itemRegist.ingots,3, 3));
	OreDictionary.registerOre("ingotAluminum", new ItemStack(itemRegist.ingots, 4, 3));
	OreDictionary.registerOre("ingotSilver", new ItemStack(itemRegist.ingots, 5, 3));

And if I comment that out, everything runs just fine. And I have tried that code like that and like

	OreDictionary.registerOre("ingotCopper", new ItemStack(itemRegist.ingots));
	OreDictionary.registerOre("ingotLead", new ItemStack(itemRegist.ingots, 1));
	OreDictionary.registerOre("ingotTin", new ItemStack(itemRegist.ingots, 2));
	OreDictionary.registerOre("ingotNickel", new ItemStack(itemRegist.ingots,3));
	OreDictionary.registerOre("ingotAluminum", new ItemStack(itemRegist.ingots, 4));
	OreDictionary.registerOre("ingotSilver", new ItemStack(itemRegist.ingots, 5));

both of which had the same outcome...

 

Sorry for sounding like a noob on something that is probably really obvious, but I just don't know what is wrong, as that looks fine to me, and using it (this code) without the metadata item(s) works just fine...

[onNeighbourBlock in metadata block class]

Then you're doing several things wrong.

 

1) That code sets the block to the north, not itself

2) That code never says "am I metadata 0?"

3) That code uses update flag 1, not 3 (you almost always want 3)

1) Yeah, that was just a test

2) I have always tried to avoid meta-blocks, so I don't know how to use them, or do this (I sorta expected it defaults to :0 because when you set block to <metablock> it defaults to :0

3) Oh, I didn't know that.

[onNeighbourBlock in metadata block class]

Hey there,

I am trying to do this

public void onNeighborBlockChange(World world, int posX, int posY, int posZ, Block neighbourBlock){
 if(world.getBlock(posX, posY - 1, posZ) == blockRegist.cable && world.getBlockMetadata(posX, posY - 1, posZ)  == 1){   
   	 world.setBlock(posX, posY, posZ+1, blockRegist.cable, 1, 1);
    }
    }

in a block class for metadata, but it doesn't work.

I know it's a metadata block, so I didn't expect it to work. But how would I make it so that it works?

 

I am trying to make it so when cable:0 detects cable:1 below it, it will set itself as cable:1 (if that makes sense)

[Metadata blocks onNeighbourBlockChange()]

Hey there, I am looking into using meta-blocks for something I am trying to do with a few different functional blocks, however I am at a loss for how to use metadata blocks:

	
public void onNeighborBlockChange(World world, int posX, int posY, int posZ, Block neighbourBlock){
	 if (world.getBlock(posX, posY + 1, posZ) == Blocks.iron_ore){
		 world.setBlock(posX, posY + 1, posZ, blockRegist.doubled);
	 }

}

Right now, this works how I want it, as doubled:1 is what should come from iron, however when I want it to be the next block along:

	
public void onNeighborBlockChange(World world, int posX, int posY, int posZ, Block neighbourBlock){
	 if (world.getBlock(posX, posY + 1, posZ) == Blocks.gold_ore){
		 world.setBlock(posX, posY + 1, posZ, blockRegist.doubled);
	 }

}

Will still do the first metadata (obviously) but I need it to do doubled:2

How would one go about doing this?

 

[[1.7.10] onNeighbourBlock + oreDict?]

it says it's not applicable for Block, int

If you don't know what this means then you need to go do some tutorials about basic Java.

I know what it means. But I don't understand why, I was told to do that, but then find out it doesn't work...

[[1.7.10] onNeighbourBlock + oreDict?]

And then you dropped

OreDictionary.getOreIDs(neighbourBlock)

for no apparent reason.

 

And you're comparing a Block to a boolean.

 

And

Ints

is not an object or a class.

 

And you're missing a )

 

It's like you're doing stuff without thinking about what that stuff you're doing means.  You're back to a point where you don't even have "code that makes sense, but contains syntax errors."

I dropped it because this didn't work:

public void onNeighborBlockChange(World world, int posX, int posY, int posZ, Block neighbourBlock){

if (world.getBlock(posX, posY + 1, posZ) == contains(OreDictionary.getOreIDs((neighbourBlock),OreDictionary.getOreID("oreIron")))){

 

And I thought you meant use the other... the issue is "getOreIDs" it says it's not applicable for Block, int

[[1.7.10] onNeighbourBlock + oreDict?]

You don't know what an ItemStack is or how to use it? o..O

 

now the only issue is the getOreID

 

OreDictionary.getOreID(...)

 

I thought that was pretty obvious.

 

public void onNeighborBlockChange(World world, int posX, int posY, int posZ, Block neighbourBlock){

if (world.getBlock(posX, posY + 1, posZ) == Ints.contains(OreDictionary.getOreID("oreIron"){

 

Still getting issues though...

Ints is erroring, but I don't know what to do with it, as importing the only option doesn't fix anything

[[1.7.10] onNeighbourBlock + oreDict?]

Seriously?

 

/**

    * Gets all the integer ID for the ores that the specified item stakc is registered to.

    * If the item stack is not linked to any ore, this will return an empty array and no new entry will be created.

    *

    * @param stack The item stack of the ore.

    * @return An array of ids that this ore is registerd as.

    */

 

And "oreIron" is still not an integer.  You need

getOreID(String name)

 

Yes, call me an idiot all you like, but I don't know what that means!

Getting somewhere though through my idiocy and I apologize for this:

 public void onNeighborBlockChange(World world, int posX, int posY, int posZ, Block neighbourBlock){
	 if (world.getBlock(posX, posY + 1, posZ) == Ints.contains(OreDictionary.getOreIDs((neighbourBlock),getOreID("oreIron"))

now the only issue is the getOreID... well... it doesn't work?

[[1.7.10] onNeighbourBlock + oreDict?]

That is not even close. If anything, you got FATHER away. Now your trying to compare a Block with an int[]

 

Oh, and "ore:oreIron" is still wrong.

From ore dictionary class... do I just need to do oreIron?

            registerOre("oreIron",    Blocks.iron_ore);

 

So this?

Ints.contains(OreDictionary.getOreIDs(null), "oreIron")

Which still shows errors, I don't know what that Ints is supposed to be, and the null? I don't understand what it should be...

[[1.7.10] onNeighbourBlock + oreDict?]

Wat.

 

1) OreDicitionary.getOreIDs(...) requires an ItemStack passed to it.  1 is an integer.

2) ore:oreIron, even if you declared that as a string (which you didn't, so it'll just throw all kinds of errors), that's not the oreDict string for iron ore.

3) Even if it was the correct string, it's not an integer!

 

My bad, I saw stack as a "how many you would want" (I was replying while on my way home from work, so I didn't know what it needed...

So let me correct that now...

So I have:

if (world.getBlock(posX, posY + 1, posZ) == OreDictionary.getOreIDs(, "ore:oreIron")
[code]
But I don't actually understand what it wants in the brackets, it suggests null (when you add unimplemented methods) but that breaks everything... I really don't know what to put in there  (Sorry for the newbie questions, but I have never used oreDict, and the code
[code]
    public static int[] getOreIDs(ItemStack stack)
    {
        if (stack == null || stack.getItem() == null) return new int[0];

        Set<Integer> set = new HashSet<Integer>();

        int id = Item.getIdFromItem(stack.getItem());
        List<Integer> ids = stackToId.get(id);
        if (ids != null) set.addAll(ids);
        ids = stackToId.get(id | ((stack.getItemDamage() + 1) << 16));
        if (ids != null) set.addAll(ids);

        Integer[] tmp = set.toArray(new Integer[set.size()]);
        int[] ret = new int[tmp.length];
        for (int x = 0; x < tmp.length; x++)
            ret[x] = tmp[x];
        return ret;
    }

doesn't really make sense

 

 

 

 

And i didn't do 

Ints.containts(OreDicitionary.getOreIDs(<stack>), <ironOreID>)

because the

Ints.containts

didn't exist (dunno if that is needed or not)

[[1.7.10] onNeighbourBlock + oreDict?]

Sure. First, get the oreID for ironOre, or whatever you want to check for. Then do Ints.containts(OreDicitionary.getOreIDs(<stack>), <ironOreID>).

When you say stack? Do you mean it'd be something like:

Ints.containts(OreDicitionary.getOreIDs(1), ore:oreIron)

to do 1 iron ore?

[[1.7.10] onNeighbourBlock + oreDict?]

Hey there, I was wondering if it is possible for onNeighbourBlock to detect the oreDict of whatever is next to it?

For example:

 public void onNeighborBlockChange(World world, int posX, int posY, int posZ, Block neighbourBlock){
	 if (world.getBlock(posX, posY + 1, posZ) == Blocks.iron_ore){

but I wanted it to be the ore dictionary for iron ore, because that would make some amount of sense for what this does would it be possible to do that?

[[Outdated code] what's the 1.7 version of this?]

What computer do you have?

You mean OS? Win 7

[Modelling, is there anything better than Techne?]

Hey there, I want to try making some custom models, but techne's layout (using numbers and not sliders, etc.) is horrible IMO.

Is there anything better than it? Something that can do rotations, and maybe sliders (drag to move things)?

[[1.7.10] onItemUse transformDamage? SOLVED]

Hey there, people are complaining that what I have at the minute is slightly over powered, so the simple solution is make it so that when the item is used, it uses durability... but how do I do that?

 

    public boolean onItemUse(ItemStack itemStack, EntityPlayer player, World world, int x, int y, int z, int side, float px, float py, float pz)
    {
        if (world.getBlock(x, y + 1, z) == Blocks.air)

              return true;
        }

    }

 

It extends item sword, so there's no issue about it having durability, it's just I have no idea how to make it do this

[[1.7.10] On block break with item; transform item]

Use the BlockEvent.BreakEvent.

 

Call me blind and/or stupid, but I don't actually know what to do with this information.

 

Do I do

What?

I have never used forge events before, or any event to be more precise, so I have no idea what I am doing.

Hey, I don't know if this would be possible, but I am looking for a nicer "crafting" recipe than just combining two items.

Alright? And this will get all items to show too, or...?

[[1.7.10] Meta-data items?]

Hey there, I am having issues with something I never really liked - meta-data.

I am trying to do items, and the only 1.7 tutorial I found on it was for blocks, so I tried to substitute in what I could to get it to work.

 

I have no errors in the code, but with what I have, only 1 item spawns. and it shows as item.null.name, not anything which I would have expected.

 

Here's the code:

https://github.com/jordsta95/JordnElecsUtils/blob/master/src/main/java/com/jordsta/stuff/integration/tinkers/UberiumToolParts.java

And here's how it's registered:

https://github.com/jordsta95/JordnElecsUtils/blob/master/src/main/java/com/jordsta/stuff/integration/tinkers/ticonRegist.java

 

Any pointers on what I am doing wrong.

Sorry if this is something really obvious, but I have never used meta-data before, but I felt when adding ~100 items, meta-data would be best (especially when they are all crafting components)

[[1.7.10] Ore spawn]

You generate too much of your ore. Try lowering the 60 passes per chunk.

 

THANK YOU!

 

I didn't know that numbers too big would be that much of a hassle, I never had issues with 200 (as a test figure) in the end... but I guess other ores genning in the same area can cause issues

[[1.7.10] Ore spawn]

My comment had nothing to do with "dimension stuff" but "java stuff."

You don't have any

s between your case statements.

      switch(world.provider.dimensionId){
      case 1:

      break;
      case 0:
          generateSurface(world, random, chunkX * 16, chunkZ * 16);

  }

 

Added in the breaks, and can now load the world, but when travelling to the dimension there is still the same crash:
