isItemValidForSlot()

[c-ab-o-o-s-e]

Whats the appropriate to check for if a certain block is placed in a slot. I know how to do items, but not blocks. I tried looking at some vanilla code but didn't find a good example. Guess the overall question is how do I pass the block into the itemstack parameter. If I had a good example to look at I would read it myself but haven't found one.

Blocks don't exist in inventories, they exist as ItemBlocks, a subclass of Item. Get an ItemBlock for the Block with Item.getItemFromBlock(block).

Ahh ok, I thought there was a getItemFromBlock(), but I was trying to do itemstack.getItemFromBlock() and not just Item.getItemFromBLock().

You could also made it into the slot directly
