I'm trying to register a BlockEntity but IntelliJ says " Connot resolve method 'of(<method reference>, Block)' ". Here is my code:

public static final RegistryObject<BlockEntityType<MobKillerBE>> MOB_KILLER_BE =
            BLOCK_ENTITIES.register("mob_killer", () ->
                    BlockEntityType.Builder.of(MobKillerBE::new,
                            MOB_KILLER.get()).build(null));

MobKillerBE definition:

public class MobKillerBE extends BlockEntity

MOB_KILLER definition:

public static final RegistryObject<Block> MOB_KILLER = BLOCKS.register("mob_killer", () -> new MobKiller(BlockBehaviour.Properties.of(Material.STONE)));

I'm using this tutorial: https://moddingtutorials.org/o19/tile-entities

Do you have a constructor in MobKillerBE?

Something like:
 

public MobKillerBE(BlockPos position, BlockState state) { ... }

 

Yes, I'm using this constructor:

public MobKillerBE(BlockEntityType<?> type, BlockPos pos, BlockState state) {
    super(type, pos, state);
}

 

Add this constructor:

public MobKillerBE(BlockPos pos, BlockState state) {
    this(YourMod.MobKillerBE.get(), pos, state);
}

Replace YourMod with whatever class you have defined that block entity type

You can see something very similar in that tutorial in the section with header "Tile Class"

 

If you want to understand what is going on. Look at the signature of BlockEntityType.BlockEntitySupplier which is the type of the first parameter for Builder.of()

It is (BlockPos, BlockState) with no BlockEntityType.
