Block break event

[david1104]

hi

i'm new with forge modding and i would like to understand a little ^^

i'm trying to make an addon for a mod

i made a tool that when right clicked on a block remove a 3x3 area and drop the destroyed blocks, but there are compatibility issues with anti-griefing things (like towny)

it's possible to make it call the block break event (that towny should recognize) before destroying blocks?

could you tell me how?

Ok, I'm gonna stop now.

 

Nah, should have gone one more.

 

(OP: hint: "can I?" and "how can I?" are two very different questions)

my bad ^^ 

anyways thanks for the help

The flow of logic you need is rather simple,

 

When picking the middle block and it breaks, a blockBreakEvent is triggered, in that event find the surrounding blocks do your check logic and break them in code. If you go though the same breaking mechanism minecraft has implemented other mods should not complain.

 

Steps in a list

[*]Listen on break event

[*]Find surrounding blocks and apply check logic

[*]Break the discovered blocks
