Serious error calling getRenderType() on blocks

[McJty]

Hi all,

 

When I try to run my mod RFTools together with Extra Utilities on a server I get the following error:

 

java.lang.RuntimeException: Serious error calling getRenderType() on block rftools:teleportBeamBlock : Likely cause is client-side code is being called server-side

 

I have googled a bit and this error is triggered by Extra Utilities which seems to go over all the blocks and does some special thing. RWTema says it is not a problem in ExtraUtilities but in the mod that is being mentioned in that line above (which is my mod in this case) and I'm inclined to believe him but I can't find what the problem is. Here is the code of that specific block:

 

https://github.com/McJty/RFTools/blob/master/src/main/java/com/mcjty/rftools/blocks/teleporter/TeleportBeamBlock.java

 

I see nothing wrong in that code. The only thing special is that the block uses a renderer (hence the getRenderType()) and is unbreakable. That combination is probably what triggers the problem.

 

So what can I do to make extrautilities happy? Thanks!

Hmm. I solved the issue by moving the declaration of the renderid constants inside the tile entity class. That way I avoided importing clientside code. I'm a bit surprised that this is this fragile though but lucky that I found the fix.
