[1.7.10] Two or more tile entities in one location

[Belpois]

Dumb question below 

 

The way the code is written in Minecraft seems to indicate that only one TileEntity can be present at one time at any given coordinate (X, Y Z).

 

Is this correct or can more than one TileEntity be placed at a given coordinate?

Corrected it so people can understand it

First of all: Entity != TileEntity.

 

Yep, sorry for the misleading sentence;

 

"Is this correct or can more than one entity be placed at a given coordinate?"

 

Should have written TileEntity

 

TileEntities: No.

 

Damn, gotta somehow override the cube renderer then.

 

Thanks!

What is your goal?

Right click with item > changes the texture on any or some vanilla block.

 

Was going to go for panels at first to avoid messing the vanilla renderer...

You will need a custom block and replace the world block with your custom block, then that block can display any texture you please (either 16 variations using metadata or a tile entity that saves which block it's masquerading as).

Love that idea! Thanks.

 

These where my maddening thoughts on how to go about it:

• Put panels on the block, wallpaper kind of thing...
  
• Custom rendering, would have been a nightmare 
  
• Allow player to only use a custom block, good idea but not very fun
  

 

Awesome!
