So I'm making a gui and I've found you need:

-The ACtual Block

-BlockEntity

-Container

-Client side rendering

But when I try to make the block entities (here is my code):

public class ModBlockEntities {
    public static final DeferredRegister<BlockEntityType<?>> BLOCK_ENTITIES = DeferredRegister.create(
            ForgeRegistries.BLOCK_ENTITY_TYPES, KnoxiItems.MOD_ID);

    public static final RegistryObject<BlockEntityType<MagicalWorkBenchBE>> MAGICAL_WORKBENCH_BE = BLOCK_ENTITIES.register("magical_workbench",
            () -> BlockEntityType.Builder.of(MagicalWorkBenchBE::new, ModBlocks.MAGICAL_WORKBENCH).build(null));//here
}

on the line with

MagicalWorkBenchBE::new

it says

Quote

Cannot resolve method 'of(<method reference>, net.minecraftforge.registries.RegistryObject<net.minecraft.world.level.block.Block>)'

I've seen other people do it but creating a supplier by ::new just never works for me

Look at the signature of the BlockEntityType.Builder.of() method.

The 2nd parameter is a Block, but you are trying to pass it a RegistryObject<Block>

You get the block by using: ModBlocks.MAGICAL_WORKBENCH.get()

Oh yeah, ty but the MagicalWorkBenchBE::new still throws an error

    public static final RegistryObject<BlockEntityType<MagicalWorkBenchBE>> MAGICAL_WORKBENCH_BE = BLOCK_ENTITIES.register("magical_workbench",
            () -> BlockEntityType.Builder.of(MagicalWorkBenchBE::new, ModBlocks.MAGICAL_WORKBENCH.get()).build(null));
