[Solved] creating an area of effect help (block)


danners68

Recommended Posts

Let me start by saying I'm totally new to Java coding, but I have a willingness to learn

 

I'm currently working on an area protection mod

 

I have the block details mostly in place in the sense that its a block that I can place in the development world but I want to add functionality similar to that of how precious stones used to work in bucket (back when there was only the sponge preventing block break/place/interact)

 

I am basically wondering if:

 

1) It is possible to replicate this effect in forge?

 

2) If Yes could somebody explain in dummy terms how this is done? or alternatively provide an excerpt of code that I could borrow to learn the basics of what I need,

 

I understand this isn't a forum for babysitting Java babies, I just hope I'm not asking too much,

 

 

please don't hurt me

So you're looking for a block that does what, exactly?  I'm not familiar with Bucket's precious stones block so you'll have to explain ( see panel 2).

Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable.  If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME.  Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice.

 

Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked.

 

DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.

Basically I'm trying to create a radius based anti-build/break protection

 

hopefully that helps somewhat

 

Just in case I'm still too obscure, you place down this magic block and your base is protected within the x amount of blocks (for arguments sake we'll say 7)

You need a TileEntity for this.

 

I've actually done this, see this class which will handle what you want.  It's highly custom though and will allow redstone interactions within the zone (as well as allowing the breaking of some blocks, like webs).

Hi

 

I don't know bucket very well, since I mostly played alone.

 

You need: - define some actions: (place, break, interact) with block,

- manage some registry where you can read and modify such permissions, based on the player, the location (x,y,z) and the action

- change the block to a TE

- register listeners for the above mentioned actions (is there a forge event for activating a block?)

 

Since I am a forge newbie, but I do know programming, I sugestthe best way would be to learn more about java.

 

I'm not sure whether to go with a tree or a table for said registry. Also I have absolutely no plan about identifying the player (UUID I guess?).

 

I hope this reply was understandable for you and may pushes you in the aiming direction.

 

Sincerely -pick

Since English is not my mother tongue, my sentences may are confusing.

 

I'm coding java for a long time now - just MC and forge stop me sometimes.

That's amazing, Thanks,

 

I'll have a study with that class and see what I can't learn,

 

 

And on that note block I suppose this topic is actually solved.

 

thank you both for your responses, i don't doubt that i'll be back in the future with some other issue of somekind,

(I think you mean "can learn" ;))

But that's why that repository is public. :)

    • Hello everyone, I'm making this post to seek help for my modded block, It's a special block called FrozenBlock supposed to take the place of an old block, then after a set amount of ticks, it's supposed to revert its Block State, Entity, data... to the old block like this :  The problem I have is that the system breaks when handling multi blocks (I tried some fix but none of them worked) :  The bug I have identified is that the function "setOldBlockFields" in the item's "setFrozenBlock" function gets called once for the 1st block of multiblock getting frozen (as it should), but gets called a second time BEFORE creating the first FrozenBlock with the data of the 1st block, hence giving the same data to the two FrozenBlock :   Old Block Fields set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=head] BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@73681674 BlockEntityData : id:"minecraft:bed",x:3,y:-60,z:-6} Old Block Fields set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=foot] BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@6d1aa3da BlockEntityData : {id:"minecraft:bed",x:2,y:-60,z:-6} Frozen Block Entity set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=foot] BlockPos{x=3, y=-60, z=-6} BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@6d1aa3da BlockEntityData : {id:"minecraft:bed",x:2,y:-60,z:-6} Frozen Block Entity set BlockState : Block{minecraft:black_bed}[facing=east,occupied=false,part=foot] BlockPos{x=2, y=-60, z=-6} BlockEntity : net.minecraft.world.level.block.entity.BedBlockEntity@6d1aa3da BlockEntityData : {id:"minecraft:bed",x:2,y:-60,z:-6} here is the code inside my custom "freeze" item :    @Override     public @NotNull InteractionResult useOn(@NotNull UseOnContext pContext) {         if (!pContext.getLevel().isClientSide() && pContext.getHand() == InteractionHand.MAIN_HAND) {             BlockPos blockPos = pContext.getClickedPos();             BlockPos secondBlockPos = getMultiblockPos(blockPos, pContext.getLevel().getBlockState(blockPos));             if (secondBlockPos != null) {                 createFrozenBlock(pContext, secondBlockPos);             }             createFrozenBlock(pContext, blockPos);             return InteractionResult.SUCCESS;         }         return super.useOn(pContext);     }     public static void createFrozenBlock(UseOnContext pContext, BlockPos blockPos) {         BlockState oldState = pContext.getLevel().getBlockState(blockPos);         BlockEntity oldBlockEntity = oldState.hasBlockEntity() ? pContext.getLevel().getBlockEntity(blockPos) : null;         CompoundTag oldBlockEntityData = oldState.hasBlockEntity() ? oldBlockEntity.serializeNBT() : null;         if (oldBlockEntity != null) {             pContext.getLevel().removeBlockEntity(blockPos);         }         BlockState FrozenBlock = setFrozenBlock(oldState, oldBlockEntity, oldBlockEntityData);         pContext.getLevel().setBlockAndUpdate(blockPos, FrozenBlock);     }     public static BlockState setFrozenBlock(BlockState blockState, @Nullable BlockEntity blockEntity, @Nullable CompoundTag blockEntityData) {         BlockState FrozenBlock = BlockRegister.FROZEN_BLOCK.get().defaultBlockState();         ((FrozenBlock) FrozenBlock.getBlock()).setOldBlockFields(blockState, blockEntity, blockEntityData);         return FrozenBlock;     }
