Some Questions about Forge

[dredhorse]

Hi,

 

I'm interested in using forge to create some Mods (as they are called). I'm coming from Bukkit and I'm having  some trouble getting up to speed.

 

So I would appreciate any suggestions for making this transition easier.

 

1) It looks like there is no maven repo for forge as a dependency and you need to use gradle, is this right?

2) It looks like there is no common permission system and every mod is taking an own approach, is this right?

3) Anything else which is greatly different?

 

Thanks

 

Don

thanks for these quick and insightful answers.

 

I already worked with "craftbukkit" and minecraft code a bit, I had a plugin requiring functions not available in bukkit.

 

I look forward to the permission api, something quite useful and needed.

 

So let's dive into gradle and figure out how it works.
