[1.7.2] Overriding Item and block attributes

[turangur]

I'm looking to make the items hay and wheat edible, but I'm not sure how to go about doing it. The only way I can think of would be to stop those items from being generated or crafted, and creating entirely new items and blocks to replace them, but if possible I do not want to do that as it sounds extremely complicated and messy. Is there another way to make hay and wheat edible?

 

Any help is appreciated. A link to another forum post I missed or pointing me to a certain area in the code would be helpful.

Thanks in advance!

Hi

 

I think that creating your own new items & blocks for an edible hay and wheat is probably the best way to do it.  It's not as difficult as you might think, and actually- is there a particular reason you couldn't have both edible hay and (vanilla) non-edible hay in the game?

Thank you for the reply!

 

It's not recreating the blocks and items that I wanted to avoid, it was blocking out the old hay and wheat. But if that is the best way of going about it then I'm willing to.

Might take some tricks and hacks, but this might work.

 

Try using PlayerInteractEvent, check if the player is right-clicking and holding I guess "hay or wheat." That's what you want isn't it?

It would be difficult to create an eating animation, but I think there's a method for that.

If not, you can try using Java Reflection.

 

Upon consuming it, create some kind of timer (if you want) and add the effects you want.
