I'm trying to use Geckolib to have a block animation play when the block is right clicked, however it isn't working properly. When I right click the block the animation will play once, and then any subsequent times I right click, nothing happens.

Here's my Block class:

public class MagicChurnerBlock extends BlockWithEntity {

    protected MagicChurnerBlock(Settings settings) {
        super(settings);
    }

    @Nullable
    @Override
    public BlockEntity createBlockEntity(BlockPos pos, BlockState state) {
        return new MagicChurner(pos, state);
    }

    @Nullable
    @Override
    public <T extends BlockEntity> BlockEntityTicker<T> getTicker(World world, BlockState state, BlockEntityType<T> type) {
        return checkType(type, DiabolismEntities.MAGIC_CHURNER_BLOCKENTITY, MagicChurner::ticker);
    }

    @Override
    public BlockRenderType getRenderType(BlockState state) {
        return BlockRenderType.ENTITYBLOCK_ANIMATED;
    }

    @Override
    public ActionResult onUse(BlockState state, World world, BlockPos pos, PlayerEntity player, Hand hand, BlockHitResult hit) {
        MagicChurner magicChurner = (MagicChurner) world.getBlockEntity(pos);
        if(magicChurner != null && world.isClient){
            magicChurner.turn();
        }
        return ActionResult.SUCCESS;
    }
}

And my Block Entity Class:

public class MagicChurner extends AbstractFluidContainer implements IAnimatable {

    private AnimationFactory factory = new InstancedAnimationFactory(this);
    private boolean hasBeenTurned =false;

    public MagicChurner(BlockPos pos, BlockState state) {
        super(DiabolismEntities.MAGIC_CHURNER_BLOCKENTITY, pos, state, 1000);
    }

    @Override
    public void registerControllers(AnimationData animationData) {
        animationData.addAnimationController(new AnimationController<MagicChurner>(this, "controller", 0, this::predicate));

    }

    private <E extends IAnimatable>PlayState predicate(AnimationEvent<E> event){
        if(hasBeenTurned) {
            event.getController().setAnimation(new AnimationBuilder().addAnimation("magic_churner_turn", (ILoopType) ILoopType.EDefaultLoopTypes.PLAY_ONCE));
            hasBeenTurned = false;
        }
       return PlayState.CONTINUE;
    }

    @Override
    public AnimationFactory getFactory() {
        return this.factory;
    }

    public static void ticker(World world, BlockPos pos, BlockState state, MagicChurner be) {
        be.tick(world, pos, state);
    }

    private void tick(World world, BlockPos pos, BlockState state) {
    }

    public void turn(){
        this.hasBeenTurned = true;
    }

That code is not for Forge 1.19.2

And questions about geckolib should be asked to them.
