Register Event Cannot Resolve Symbol

[BeaniePope]

Alright, so this might be a Java problem, and if it is I'm sorry, but either I'm missing something super obvious or I don't have the right libraries installed 

This is my item initialization file, and I'm simply trying to initialize an item using the RegisterEvent and IntelliJ refuses to acknowledge it as a real class and I am running out of things to google as I simply cannot find an answer to my issues. Here's my code

 

package com.GitHub.BeaniePope.ThaumoNuclear.init;

import net.minecraft.item.Item;
import net.minecraft.util.ResourceLocation;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.eventhandler.SubscribeEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.registry.ForgeRegistries;


import static com.GitHub.BeaniePope.ThaumoNuclear.ThaumoNuclear.MODID;


public class itemInit {
    @SubscribeEvent
    public void register(RegisterEvent event) {
        event.register(ForgeRegistries.Keys.ITEMS,
                helper -> {
                    helper.register(new ResourceLocation(MODID, "gay"), new Item());
                   
                }
        );
    }
}

Essentially the event.register and RegisterEvent events refuse to exist anywhere in any import and I do not know why, so any help would be nice

Again, I completely understand if this is a Java issue and thus not for this forum but I'm not actually sure if it is so just tell me and I'll try my best. Thank you.

You are correct, it is a java question.

You appear to be using an unsupported (in this forum) version of forge, I think 1.12? But then trying to use api that is from forge 1.19, e.g.

import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.eventhandler.SubscribeEvent; // <-- 1.12
import net.minecraftforge.eventbus.api.SubscribeEvent; // <-- 1.19

RegisterEvent was introduced in 1.19
