Hey everyone, just wondering if any of y'all could help me  with a little problem I'm having. Basically, I have added a new crafting table-like block to the game,  and it uses multiple different crafting managers depending on what item is in a Modifier Slot. It has a traditional 3x3 grid with an output, as well as the modifier. What I want to do is damage the modifier slot's item when I craft something in the grid. I have seen posts on damaging items used in crafting, however those don't work for this. I've added a method to my CraftingHandler that should do the job, but I don't know where to call it.

 

public void DamageModifier(ContainerXXXXXX container)
{

	if(container.ModifierSlot.getStack() != null) {
		ItemStack j = container.ModifierSlot.getStack();

		if(j.getItem() != null && j.getItem() == ModFile.Modifier) {

			ItemStack k = new ItemStack(ModFile.Modifier, 1, j.getItemDamage() + 1);
			container.ModifierSlot.putStack(k);
		}
	}
}

 

I would call that in OnCrafting, but I don't have a ContainerXXXXXXX object there, and it would cause a crash if the player crafted something in a vanilla table because that doesn't use a ContainerXXXXXXX file. I guess my main questions are: is there a way to check what container the player used to craft something, and how should I do this?

 

EDIT: I thought about using OnStackTakenFromSlot(), but I can't think of a way to make it work.

Try adding a catch:

 

if(CONTAINERNAME instanceof SPECALCRAFTINGTABLE){

   //Your code here
}

This is the way how i would do it. That make it easy extendable.

Oh now i understand. You want to add craftdamage to your thingy^^ Easy Enough.

You have to convert the code a little bit but its not that hard. (its a tile code)(just change it to a container code)

 

ContainerClass

   public void onCraftMatrixChanged(IInventory par1IInventory)
    {
        this.craftResult.setInventorySlotContents(0, CraftingManager.getInstance().findMatchingRecipe(this.craftMatrix, this.worldObj));
        DamageModifire();
    }

public void DamageModifier()
{
      if(modifireslot[id] != null && modifireslot[id].getItem() instanceof ModifireTool)
      {
             ModifireTool mt = (ModifireTool)modifireslot[id].getItem();
     modifireslot[id] = mt.damageTool(modifireslot[id], 1);
      }
}

 

ItemClass

public class ModifireTool extends Item
{
      public ModifireTool(int id)
      {
           super(id);
           setMaxDamage(3);
      }


      public ItemStack damageTool(ItemStack tool, int damage)
      {
             tool.setItemDamage(tool.getItemDamage()+damage);
             if(tool.getItemDamage() > tool.getMaxDamage())
             {
                  return null;
             }
             return tool;
      }
}

 

I hope that helps^^
