[1.7.10][SOLVED]setBlock not setting block

[nosrick]

So I've got another question.

 

I've got an entity that's meant to poop every now and then. That bit works. It's just that I can't seem to make it manufacture the little poop block that I have made. The block appears fine in world and everything, it's just that I can't get worldObj.setBlock() to do anything.

 

Here's the code for setting it:

 

public void Poop()
{
if(!worldObj.isRemote)
{
	System.out.println("Pooping!");
	worldObj.setBlock((int)posX, (int)posY, (int)posZ, new GotchiPoopBlock());
	worldObj.markBlockForUpdate((int)posX, (int)posY, (int)posZ);
	m_Needs.SatisfyNeed("Poop", 100);
}
}

 

 

What am I doing wrong?

Register your block somewhere  and

public void Poop()
{
if(!worldObj.isRemote)
{
	System.out.println("Pooping!");
	worldObj.setBlock((int)posX, (int)posY, (int)posZ, Whereitsregistered.yourpoopblock);
	worldObj.markBlockForUpdate((int)posX, (int)posY, (int)posZ);
	m_Needs.SatisfyNeed("Poop", 100);
}
}

I think lol

Never ever make a new Block instance outside of preInit. It shows that you completely misunderstood how Blocks work.

 

Sorry for my ignorance.

 

Register your block somewhere  and

public void Poop()
{
if(!worldObj.isRemote)
{
	System.out.println("Pooping!");
	worldObj.setBlock((int)posX, (int)posY, (int)posZ, [b]Whereitsregistered.yourpoopblock[/b]);
	worldObj.markBlockForUpdate((int)posX, (int)posY, (int)posZ);
	m_Needs.SatisfyNeed("Poop", 100);
}
}

I think lol

 

That fixed it! Thank you both so much, I'm learning a lot by asking questions here. I think I'll hit some more basic tutorials.
