Thats the Block class

Actually working, but when i relog into the world the candels still emit light, but it looks buggy (only with a really small range)

when i place a torch and remove it the light updates and its normal again

(sry some names deobfuscated )

Hi

 

> world.setBlockMetadataWithNotify(x, y, z, data+1, 2);

try replacing the "2" with "3"

    * Sets the block ID and metadata at a given location. Args: X, Y, Z, new block ID, new metadata, flags. Flag 1 will

    * cause a block update. Flag 2 will send the change to clients (you almost always want this).

 

I think you should also only use setBlockMetadataWithNotify on the server side.

eg

 

if (!world.isRemote) {

.. etc..

  world.setBlockMetadataWithNotify(..etc..)

}

 

-TGG

still buggy

not every single one, but > 0!

is the getLightValue causing the problem?

Can i maybe do something like updating the light level for the first time the block gets ticked ater relog or sth?
