Currently having problems getting TEs to work and I'm out of ideas for the cause.

 

I've got a TEOre class extending from Tileentity featuring basically the same functions as the CustomeTileEntity in ModelBakeEventDebug.java

 

During the FMLInitializationEvent I do

GameRegistry.registerTileEntity(TEOre.class, ModInfo.ModID + ":orete");

 

My Block Class BlockOreVC extends from BlockContainer and creates the tile entity

    @Override
    public TileEntity createNewTileEntity(World world, int meta) {
        return new TEOre();
    }

    @Override
    public IBlockState getExtendedState(IBlockState state, IBlockAccess world, BlockPos pos) {
        TileEntity te = world.getTileEntity(pos);
        if(te instanceof TEOre) {
        	TEOre cte = (TEOre) te;
            return cte.getState();
        } else {
        	if (te == null) {
        		System.out.println("getExtendedState() Error: tileentity is null!");
        	} else {
        		System.out.println("getExtendedState() Error: te is NOT of instance TEOre at pos " + pos);
        	}
        }
        return state;
    }

    @Override
    protected BlockState createBlockState() {
        return new ExtendedBlockState(this, new IProperty[0], TEOre.properties);
    }

 

I create the blocks in WorldGenDeposits like this:

				world.setBlockState(pos, deposit.block.getDefaultState(), 2);

				if (deposit.block instanceof BlockOreVC) {
					TEOre tileentity = (TEOre)world.getTileEntity(pos);
					if(tileentity != null) {
						tileentity.setOreType(deposit).setRockType((EnumRockType)parentmaterial.getValue(BlockRock.STONETYPE));
					} else {
						System.out.println("tileentity was not created?");
					}
				}

 

 

When generating a new world however the call to getExtendedState() will return null for world.getTileEntity(pos);

I dont understand why because during creation I can access the tileentity and modify it's state.

 

Am I missing some client <=> server stuff for tileentities to work?

Ok, I got it resolved. Thanks anyhow.
