Minecraft 1.16.4 create GUI with right click on custom block

[chickenwigslp]

Hello there,

I am a beginner in Minecraft modding and realy need help.
So can you please tell me how to create a GUI that opens up if u right click a custom block?
In the GUI you should be able to put in 3 Items and proceed them into 1.
I saw many tutorials and read a lot but I still don't understand how this works.

Sorry I can't find any premade tutorials for 1.17 at the moment. It really depends on the version of forge you are using. But here's the rundown:

You want to look at classes such as BeaconBlock, or ChestBlock, BeaconMenu, etc. to help you with these steps, but you need to do the following:
1. Make a block extending BaseEntityBlock (BeaconBlock)
2. Make a block entity for it (BeaconTileEntity)
3. Make a menu for it (BeaconMenu)
4. Make a screen for it (BeaconScreen)

I know it's a little complex, but I'm sure you can find tutorials online, or if someone else comes in to help.

<1.16 blockentities are tileentities

tile entity may not be needed at all.

read the topic again its 1.16.4 and not 1.17 -> the class names being wrong, since he use mcp and not moj mappings

it is required if you want to store data (like a Inventory)

Whoops! Sorry, my fault.

But yes, a block entity (tile entity in 1.16-) *is* needed for storing data (i.e. furnace). But I think what OP is doing is making an item combiner, which doesn't need one
