Adding xp to ores 1.17.1

[Jaydizzle514]

I've been trying to sort this out for a few days but unfortunately I've had no success. I was wondering if anyone has figured out how to add xp drops to an ore for 1.17.1. Anyone help would be appreciated, thanks!

take a look at the vanilla OreBlock and copy the logic to your own Block

[Jaydizzle514]

I should've mentioned that's what I've done the past few days. I don't wanna be told exactly how to do it just a little guidance 

[Luis_ST]

then show what you tried 

[Jaydizzle514]

@Override public int getExpDrop(BlockState state, LevelReader reader, BlockPos pos, int fortune, int silktouch) { return silktouch == 0 ? this.RANDOM.nextInt(10) : 20; }
this is what i've recently tried and it did drop xp but it drops it regardless if silk touch is involved or not

[Jaydizzle514]

but other than that they've just been variations of that

[Luis_ST]

the code should work, if the SilkTouch level is 0 it will return a random xp count between 0 and 9, if the SilkTouch level is not 0 it will return constantly 20

[Jaydizzle514]

Ah i see the issue i had it set to give 20 xp with silk alright. Is there anything i can replace random with so for example itll always drop 10 xp

[Luis_ST]

in which case? with SilkTouch, without SilkTouch or in both

[Jaydizzle514]

Ok so i have this right which means without silk touch it'll drop between 0-9 xp and 0 with silktouch so i assume the 0-9 is because of that this.RANDOM. So im wondering if i can change that RANDOM so it always drops the 10 xp or if im just over thinking this

@Override

public int getExpDrop(BlockState state, LevelReader reader, BlockPos pos, int fortune, int silktouch) {

return silktouch == 0 ? this.RANDOM.nextInt(10) : 0;

}

[Jaydizzle514]

But to answer simply without silktouch

[Jaydizzle514]

Nevermind i got it figured out! I appreciate your help Luis
