I have another question... how do i adjust the speed my custom fluid pushes players? I know using the 'setViscosity()' method doesn't do anything...

seriously... no one knows?

onEntityCollidedWithBlock passes an Entity argument

onEntityCollidedWithBlock passes an Entity argument

I don't understand how to use that...

Get the blocks metadata (or whatever data from the fluid), and adjust the players motion depending on that.

Multiply entity.motionX, entity.motionY, entity.motionZ by whatever you want.

Multiply entity.motionX, entity.motionY, entity.motionZ by whatever you want.

I did this:

public void onEntityCollidedWithBlock(Entity entity)
    {
            entity.motionX = entity.motionX*2;
            entity.motionY = entity.motionY*2;
            entity.motionZ = entity.motionZ*2;
    }

but it doesn't change anything... the ide says the method is never used

Get the blocks metadata (or whatever data from the fluid), and adjust the players motion depending on that.

I think your way is the way to go.... but how would i do that...

Use @Override to check if you are actually overriding a method. You have to use that method's parameters. Look at the onEntityCollidedWithBlock method in Block or BlockCactus.

You aren't overriding it correctly, that method doesn't only pass an Entity parameter.

If you are using eclipse, use the Ctrl + Space shortcut to automatically have the method overridden, and then of course use the parameters you are given

I figured it out... thanks guys! I have another question that i don't want to open another thread for.... how do i apply a texture to my liquid... here is the code for it:

@Override
    public void registerBlockIcons(IIconRegister register) {
        this.flowingIcon = register.registerIcon(Reference.MODID + ":" + getUnlocalizedName().substring(5) + "_flow");
        this.stillIcon = register.registerIcon(Reference.MODID + ":" + getUnlocalizedName().substring(5) + "_still");

    }
    @Override
    public IIcon getIcon(int side, int meta) {
        return (side == 0 || side == 1)? stillIcon : flowingIcon;
    }

I'm using a recolored vanilla texture... should it be a different size or am i not registering/using the icon code right?

I got this:

and this in the main:

 

@SubscribeEvent
@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
public void textureHook(TextureStitchEvent.Post event) {
	if (event.map.getTextureType() == 0) {
		CMStuff.darkwater_fluid.setIcons(CMStuff.darkwater.getIcon(0, 0), CMStuff.darkwater.getIcon(1, 0));

	}
}

 

Ii dont know if its necessary, because i didnt checked afterwards, but i think it was for the bc tanks

I did that but i still get the ugly pink and black tiles.... what size is your texture? 16x16 or a different size?

Its 32x1024 Look at water_flowing and water_still ^^
