Hey there, I am trying to make an RF-producing Fusion Reactor. The model is a 3*2*3 structure (height of 2 and square with length 3). The main block is placed down, and around and above it, 17 dummy blocks are placed to make the structure of the model solid (http://i.imgur.com/kXeqxyx.png). I have managed to allow right-clicking on any of the dummy blocks to access the main block's inventory (In the dummy block's Block class). I have also managed to allow RF to be taken out of any of the dummy blocks (in the main Fusion Reactor block's Tile Entity class) (http://i.imgur.com/yy78jwg.png). However, I am totally stuck trying to work out how to allow items to be taken out and put into the main block's inventory by accessing the dummy blocks with hoppers, pipes etc (http://i.imgur.com/6pZQ47o.png). I am not sure which classes I should give to you or look at since I have made no progress since trying to add this feature - it is quite important as currently there is only one side available to access, which is the bottom of the main block. Any help would be appreciated, and thanks in advance

Hey there, I am having trouble allowing the ores from Thermal Foundation to work in my machines - I think I have added the correct ores to the ore dictionary, as ores from other mods like IC2 work. How can I allow TF ores, items etc. to be processed too? Secondly, is it possible to allow my ores to be processed in other mods' machines? For example I add Lithium and Boron Ore and was wondering if I could allow TE and IC2 to be able to process them. Thanks in advance

Hey there, I've been making a mod for the past month or so, and have recently, with a friend, been going through previous code to clean it up, prevent unnecessary lag etc. However, I have 2 small but annoying problems with a nuclear fission reactor which takes a fuel cell, runs a cycle until the fuel runs out, then leaves behind the depleted cell. The first problem is that the fuel level seems to flicker when I put fuel in, (an updating issue I guess), and the other problem is that a 'ghost' image of the depleted fuel cell appears straight after I put the original fuel cell in (clicking on the depleted cell or re-entering the GUI gets rid of it).

You're a great guy Thanks a bunch for the help.

Does anyone know how to make this work?

Ah yes - true, thank you I understand why that doesn't work now, but I am still a little confused about where to put the for loops How would I allow the method to run through all the blocks before making a decision?

Hey there, I'm not too experienced with modding, but have been making a mod for the past month or so, and have certainly improved. However, I'm attempting to make my currently extremely crude code more compact and simplified by using for loops to detect whether all of the blocks needed for the multiblock structure are there. However, I am clearly doing something wrong: the block is only caring about 6 of the blocks out of the 150 of the structure, and only searches in those places - here is the block class, where everything important is, and the multiblock detection method is at the bottom, with the commented out section at the beginning of the method being the old system. package com.nr.mod.blocks.tileentities; import java.util.Random; import net.minecraft.block.Block; import net.minecraft.block.BlockContainer; import net.minecraft.block.material.Material; import net.minecraft.client.renderer.texture.IIconRegister; import net.minecraft.command.ICommandSender; import net.minecraft.entity.EntityLivingBase; import net.minecraft.entity.item.EntityItem; import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer; import net.minecraft.inventory.Container; import net.minecraft.inventory.IInventory; import net.minecraft.item.Item; import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack; import net.minecraft.nbt.NBTTagCompound; import net.minecraft.tileentity.TileEntity; import net.minecraft.util.IChatComponent; import net.minecraft.util.IIcon; import net.minecraft.util.MathHelper; import net.minecraft.world.World; import com.nr.mod.NuclearRelativistics; import com.nr.mod.blocks.NRBlocks; import cpw.mods.fml.common.network.internal.FMLNetworkHandler; import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.Side; import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.SideOnly; public class BlockFissionReactorGraphite extends BlockContainer { private Random rand = new Random(); private final boolean isActive; public static int MBNumber; @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT) private IIcon iconFront; private static boolean keepInventory; public BlockFissionReactorGraphite(boolean isActive) { super(Material.iron); this.isActive = isActive; } @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT) @Override public void registerBlockIcons(IIconRegister iconRegister) { this.blockIcon = iconRegister.registerIcon("nr:" + "reactorBlock"); this.iconFront = iconRegister.registerIcon("nr:" + "fissionReactorGraphite" + "Front" + (this.isActive ?

What's wrong with 1057? I'm not saying you're wrong, I'm just not not aware of these problems. Is it really bad?

If this helps, I based my fluids code very much on Tinkers Construct's way of doing things - I found that, since that mod adds many liquids, that would be the best way to go.

Also - these fluids render fine in the Tinkers Construct seared tanks and glass, just not BuildCraft tanks...

Hey, I am using the Forge 1057 src for 1.7.2 (the latest version) to write my mod - I am quite new to modding, so it may be something simple I have missed - I have my fluids working fine in the world, but in BuildCraft tanks, they render as the missing texture, the purple and black squares - in the world, when they're placed in the world, they work fine. Also, when I apply things like luminosity, density etc. , they don't work at all. Here are the classes I have made, sorry if it is messy: Main Class - ChemicalWarfare.java package com.chemwarfare; import org.apache.logging.log4j.LogManager; import org.apache.logging.log4j.Logger; import net.minecraft.block.Block;
