I'm running into an issue while creating a new mod for 1.7.2. I'm adding blocks then running the debug version of Minecraft in eclipse to place them to verify they are working properly and the textures are displaying as expected, and a couple of times now after a code change I've had blocks "shift" on me, where all of the block x's will turn into block y's, all the y's become z's and so on in the debug world.
I'm not changing the names of anything, and after the second time it happened I started playing around and figured out that if I changed the configuration file to remove a block, launched minecraft, then changed the configuration back I could get this sort of behavior.
I have quite a bit of programming/java experience but this is the first time I've tried to mod minecraft and I'm not sure what I could be doing to cause this, I'm hoping someone here might have some ideas.
I'm using Forge 10.12.1.1060.
