Good morning - 

Trying to determine if a block is made of wood. I've been referencing blocks by their exact type (e.g. Blocks.ACACIA_DOOR. The purpose is to have entities interact with a block if it's made of wood. However, this has two problems:

- There are a lot of blocks to loop through, because I'm checking by type. This has overhead and leads to unclean code.

- Mods with custom blocks wouldn't be included.

 

Is there a generic class or tag that all wooden items (blocks, doors, etc.) use?

 

Thanks!

You can use the block's Material

Tags are a better option here. Check for BlockTags.LOGS or BlockTags.PLANKS respectively.

That only gets you LOGS and PLANKS, he doesn't want to know if the item is wood, he wants to know if it's made of wood.
Example: jungle door.

Jungle Door is made of wood, but is neither a log nor a plank.

Doing it with tags, and not creating a new tag, you'd have to check:

  • logs
  • planks
  • wooden_buttons
  • wooden_doors
  • wooden_fences
  • wooden_pressure_plates
  • wooden_slabs
  • wooden_stairs
  • wooden_trapdoors

And possibly still have to check for other blocks like ladders.

I'd even go so far as to say the tag mineable/axe would cover it, but it's more like "everything in mineable/axe except..."
