I have a transparent block (ModBlockConnectedTextureTransparent... I'm pretty sure at least), and I have tried a few thing sot get redstone, levers, etc on it, but I can't figure it out. My code is at https://github.com/alix-the-alicorn/Carbon-Mod/blob/17/common_carbonmod/com/jmanpenilla/carbonmod/common/block/ModBlockConnectedTextureTransparent.java. Any help is appreciated!

This will allow you to place torches, ladders, redstone etc. on top or on the sides of your block respectively .

 

For 1.6.4

@Override
public boolean isBlockSolidOnSide(World world, int x, int y, int z, ForgeDirection side)
{
return true;
}

 

and for 1.7.2

@Override
public boolean isSideSolid(IBlockAccess world, int x, int y, int z, ForgeDirection side)
{
return true;
}

Thanks I was looking in Block.class and seeing how isOpaqueCube was used, and that led me to nothing. Thanks for the help!
