[Solved] Help with using variable on a method

Recommended Posts

I'm trying to get a texture from a block when you right click my block with a block in your wand. That works and it is writing the block name to my block's Tile Entity's NBT Data. Now I want to get the texture from the block from the NBT Data, and for that I'm using this piece of code:

Block.blocksList[stone.itemID].getBlockTextureFromSide(0);

Now I want to replace the "stone" with the block name from my NBT Data. Is that possible? Is there a easiest way to do it? Thanks!

Maybe.

 

We don't have enough information to help you, as from the code supplied and the description given, we do not know where you've stored the NBT tag or if that object is available at that point.

Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable.  If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME.  Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice.

On my onBlockActivated I have this method to have access to my tile entity:

TileEntityIluminator tile = (TileEntityIluminator) world.getBlockTileEntity(x, y, z);

Then I have a string variable on my tile entity called blockName. I can read/write to it by doing "tile.blockName = "[blockName]". Now I want to replace the "stone" part with my variable, "tile.blockName".

and the run the string like it was an argument.

 

Eval() is evil.  Do not use.

Save the block ID.

 

Block.blocksList[nbt.getInteger("thatThingIWantToUse")].getBlockTextureFromSide(0)
