Hello

I'm a total noob when it comes to modding, but I know some basics (can create blocks, items, ores, loottables etc), but now I want to create a custom weapon. It is a simple "wooden stake" to kill vampires with it. This weapon can be used once and will be removed after a single hit. Attack speed, harvesting level etc do not apply here.

My first question: Should I base this weapon on the Item class or should I write a class that inherits from the SwordItem class?

My second question: Where can I check if the entity I'm attacking is a vampire?

 

Thnx

Okay, I will start with that...

thnx m8

I did some research on the Internet and came up with the code below. The only problem is that "wooden_stake" is not registered (Java Nullpointer error can't find "wooden_stake). What am I missing?

    public Main()
    {
        instance = this;
        IEventBus modEventBus = FMLJavaModLoadingContext.get().getModEventBus();
        modEventBus.addListener(this::setup);
        modEventBus.addListener(this::clientSetup);
        BlockList.BLOCKS.register(modEventBus);
        ItemList.ITEMS.register(modEventBus);
        EntityList.ENTITIES.register(modEventBus);
        MinecraftForge.EVENT_BUS.addListener(EventPriority.HIGH, OreGeneration::generatesOres);
        MinecraftForge.EVENT_BUS.register(this);
    }

items/WoodenStake class

public class WoodenStake extends SwordItem
{
    public WoodenStake(IItemTier tier, int attackDamageIn, float attackSpeedIn, Properties builder) {
        super(tier, attackDamageIn, attackSpeedIn, builder);
    }
}

list/ToolMaterialList

public enum ToolMaterialList implements IItemTier
{
    wooden_stake(1.0f,0.0f,1,0, 1000000, ItemList.WOODEN_STAKE.get());

    private float attackDamage, efficiency;
    private int durability, harvestLevel, enchantability;
    private Item repairMaterial;

    private ToolMaterialList(float attackDamage, float efficiency, int durability, int harvestLevel, int enchantability, Item repairMaterial)
    {
        this.attackDamage = attackDamage;
        this.efficiency = efficiency;
        this.enchantability = enchantability;
        this.durability = durability;
        this.harvestLevel = harvestLevel;
        this.repairMaterial = repairMaterial;
    }

    @Override
    public int getUses() {
        return this.durability;
    }

    @Override
    public float getSpeed() {
        return this.efficiency;
    }

    @Override
    public float getAttackDamageBonus() {
        return this.attackDamage;
    }

    @Override
    public int getLevel() {
        return this.harvestLevel;
    }

    @Override
    public int getEnchantmentValue() {
        return this.enchantability;
    }

    @Override
    public Ingredient getRepairIngredient() {
        return Ingredient.of(this.repairMaterial);
    }
}

lists/ItemList

public class ItemList {

    public static final DeferredRegister<Item> ITEMS = DeferredRegister.create(ForgeRegistries.ITEMS, Main.MOD_ID);
    public static final RegistryObject<Item> WOODEN_STAKE = ITEMS.register("wooden_stake", () -> new WoodenStake(ToolMaterialList.wooden_stake, 0, 6.0f, new Item.Properties().tab(ItemGroup.TAB_COMBAT)));
}

I would highly suggest making a github repo for sharing your code, it makes it much easier to share, just a link instead of a wall of text.

Had this link bookmarked from ages ago (yeah I don't clean out my bookmarks) when someone asked me about it: https://readwrite.com/2013/09/30/understanding-github-a-journey-for-beginners-part-1/

You can override hurtEnemy in your item class to do something when it is used for attacking.

Well fixed the Java Null pointer error and started working on de hurtEnemy method.

 

thnx for your support guys
