Colored blocks [SOLVED]

Posted March 28, 201411 yr

So, I'm trying to create a custom block that is effected by gravity and can be colored. I've got the gravity part down, I just extended BlockFalling. I looked at BlockColored and copied the body, renamed the variables that I knew what they were doing for easier reference, and created the appropriate textures for the block

package com.mmg.candymod.blocks;

import java.util.List;

import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.Side;
import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.SideOnly;
import net.minecraft.block.BlockFalling;
import net.minecraft.block.material.MapColor;
import net.minecraft.block.material.Material;
import net.minecraft.client.renderer.texture.IIconRegister;
import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;
import net.minecraft.item.Item;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemDye;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;
import net.minecraft.util.IIcon;
import net.minecraft.world.World;

public class BlockSugarCrystals extends BlockFalling {

    @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
    private IIcon[] iconArray;	

protected BlockSugarCrystals() {
	super(Material.sand);
	this.setHardness(0.5F);
	this.setHarvestLevel("shovel", 0);
	// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
}

    /**
     * Gets the block's texture. Args: side, meta
     */
    @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
    public IIcon getIcon(int side, int meta)
    {
        return this.iconArray[meta % this.iconArray.length];
    }

    /**
     * Determines the damage on the item the block drops. Used in cloth and wood.
     */
    public int damageDropped(int meta)
    {
        return meta;
    }

    public static int func_150032_b(int p_150032_0_)
    {
        return func_150031_c(p_150032_0_);
    }

    public static int func_150031_c(int p_150031_0_)
    {
        return ~p_150031_0_ & 15;
    }

    /**
     * returns a list of blocks with the same ID, but different meta (eg: wood returns 4 blocks)
     */
    @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
    public void getSubBlocks(Item item, CreativeTabs creativeTab, List list)
    {
        for (int i = 0; i < 16; ++i)
        {
            list.add(new ItemStack(item, 1, i));
        }
    }

    @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
    public void registerBlockIcons(IIconRegister iconRegister)
    {
        this.iconArray = new IIcon[16];

        for (int i = 0; i < this.iconArray.length; ++i)
        {
            this.iconArray[i] = iconRegister.registerIcon(this.getTextureName() + "_" + ItemDye.field_150921_b[func_150031_c(i)]);
        }
    }

    public MapColor getMapColor(int p_149728_1_)
    {
        return MapColor.getMapColorForBlockColored(p_149728_1_);
    }	

}

Only things I didn't rename were func_150032_b and func_150031_c, as I have no idea what they are doing.

I haven't done anything special while registering the block (Which may be where the problem is). I created a simple little dirt to custom block with metavalue 2 to see if it works. The block looks fine in inventory, but when I place it, it renders the neutral texture. I get the colored texture back when I break it. I'm guessing that somehow I have to pass the meta value on to the block, but I have no idea how, or if I should register it in some way to recognize the meta value from inventory.

I'm sure this is an uber noobish question, but I'm stuck :-/

[edit] Okay. So I figured out I need another class extending ItemBlockWithMetaData.

package com.mmg.candymod.items;

import net.minecraft.block.Block;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemBlockWithMetadata;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;

import com.mmg.candymod.blocks.CustomBlock;

public class ItemBlockSugarCrystals extends ItemBlockWithMetadata {

private final static String[] subNames = {
	"white", "orange",  "magenta", "lightBlue", "yellow", "lightGreen",
	"pink", "darkGrey", "lightGrey", "cyan", "purple", "blue", "brown",
	"green", "red", "black"
};

public ItemBlockSugarCrystals() {
	super(CustomBlock.blockSugarCrystals, CustomBlock.blockSugarCrystals);
	// TODO Auto-generated constructor stub
}

@Override
public int getMetadata (int damageValue) {
	return damageValue;
}

@Override
public String getUnlocalizedName(ItemStack itemstack) {
	return getUnlocalizedName() + "." + subNames[itemstack.getItemDamage()];
}
}

I register in PreInit with: GameRegistry.registerBlock(blockSugarCrystals, ItemBlockSugarCrystals.class, blockSugarCrystals.getUnlocalizedName());

Now the game crashes, probably because I'm registering wrong :-/

Just in case, though
