setHarvestLevel

[Kander16]

Hi,

 

Iam wondering if i could make different harvest levels for different blocks in one class (MyBlockOre.class).

If it can't, how did vanilla minecraft did? In what class?

 

Thanks.

Ok, I have tried to work it out. But I can only mine the blocks with my pickaxe. Not the shovel

 

This is my code:

 

    @Override

    public int getHarvestLevel(int metadata)

    {

    if (this == Chef.oreSaltOre) {

    this.setHarvestLevel("pickaxe", 2);

    } else if (this == Chef.oreSaltOre2) {

    this.setHarvestLevel("shovel", 1);

    }

return metadata;

    }

How do I do this then?

For the level to harvest it, Something like this?

 

    @Override
    public int getHarvestLevel(int metadata)
    {
    	if (this == Chef.oreSaltOre) {
    		this.getHarvestLevel(2);
    	} else if (this == Chef.oreSaltOre2) {
    		this.getHarvestLevel(1);
    	}
	return getHarvestLevel(0);
    }

No I'd rather check the metadata, since this is surely passed to the method.

 

Use somewhere mostly defined an array of IIcons or something, where you decode the metadata into the corresponding IIcon, right?

Do the same in here: depending on the metadata return a different harvestlevel.

 

I hope this brought you to the right direction.

Please, take a look at it.

It looks like I see why you're so confused.

Metadata is a number that a block can have, as an attribute. The best known example is wool: the color is a 'visual representation' of that metadata (from the coding view it's vice versa).

 

You should calculate or _return_ the harvest level more or less the same why like you did it with the IIcons.

 

-> EDIT: As diesieben07 previously mentioned: _return_ is the keyword you are looking for.

 

But to be honestly, it looks like you really recently started modding and I'd really suggest to go to google and read through / look some tutorials.

Yes, your right.

Maybe I should look for tutorials.

But can you give an example?

Then I am gonna try to understand what it means.

 

After that, I AM gonna look for some tutorials on google. 

 

Thanks for helping.

If you have to search for tutorials for this type of very basic Java, you shouldn't be modding. Learn Java and come back then.

Ok,

 

Thanks
