First off, I know how to code java so do not tell me to "go learn java" this should be exemplified in my code.

 

My problem is simply how do I use a block as a furnace fuel? I came across the problem while making my core mod and thought I could find the answer here.

 

So, this is the corresponding code but it registers items as furnace fuel:

 

public class VinillaItemFurnaceFuelHandler implements IFuelHandler{

public static HashMap<Item, Integer> FurnaceFuel = new HashMap<Item, Integer>();


public static void RegisterFurnaceFuel(Item fuel, Integer burnTime){

	FurnaceFuel.put(fuel, burnTime);
}
@Override
public int getBurnTime(ItemStack fuel) {

	Item ItemInFuelSlot = fuel.getItem();
	Integer BurnTime = FurnaceFuel.get(ItemInFuelSlot);


	if (BurnTime == null){
		return 0;
	} else return BurnTime;	
}
}

 

Now I predict my problem with the upcoming code is I do not know how to get a Block for an ItemStack so if you know how to do so please say.

 

public class VinillaItemFurnaceFuelHandler implements IFuelHandler{

public static HashMap<Item, Integer> FurnaceFuel = new HashMap<Item, Integer>();


public static void RegisterFurnaceFuel(Item fuel, Integer burnTime){

	FurnaceFuel.put(fuel, burnTime);
}

       
@Override
public int getBurnTime(ItemStack fuel) {
	 //Here forward I am confused and do not know what to do
	Item ItemInFuelSlot = fuel.getItem(); //I need to get the Block
	Integer BurnTime = FurnaceFuel.get(ItemInFuelSlot);

                //Here forward I am not confused

	if (BurnTime == null){
		return 0;
	} else return BurnTime;	
}
}

 

Thank You In Advanced,

Perhaps I can help. I've created my own class(Which so happens is also called 'FurnaceFuel') and I use it to make blocks and items burnable in a furnace all the time. Here's my FurnaceFuel class, and then below that the code in one of my block classes that adds itself as a burnable item:

However, I think that my code won't really help you as it looks like you need a block from an itemstack. You can do that like so:

 

Block yourBlock = Block.getBlockFromItem(someItemStack.getItem());

 

I hope this helps

implement IFuelHandler in your block class and create the method "int getBurnTime(ItemStack stack)". The register the block as a Fuel Handler with: GameRegistry.registerFuelHandler( MyBlocks.myFuelBlock );

Of course, replace the argument with your own block instance.
