Posted January 26, 201411 yr I've made a method which requires 5 items to be given to it as parameters however sometimes i need to pass gravel to it, I've looked in Block, Item, and ItemBlock and i can't find any way to do this, is there a way to get an item instance of a block or allow either a Block or Item to be given to a function (Like forge does with registering recipes)?
January 26, 201411 yr Hi Like nearly all Blocks, gravel has a corresponding ItemBlock, it is automatically created in the static initialiser for Block. So like dieSieben says, if you use ItemStack you can pass in gravel. new ItemStack(theBlock.blockID, 1, theBlock.damageDropped(metadata)) (where metadata is for eg different colours of carpet) -TGG
January 28, 201411 yr the contructor ItemStack is not visible Please show your code. 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. Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked. DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.
