Hey,

I want to create container of an existing item (flint and steel).

+ I dont want to update on 1.8

 

Edit : I want to craft something with flint and steel and use up 1 durability of it.

 

Any ideas ?

There may be a slightly hacky way to do this, but I don't know it. You can make your own item, extend Item, copy the onItemUse from Flint and Steel, and add:

 

In the constructor:

 

this.setMaxDamage(whatever);
this.maxStackSize = 1;

 

Override these:

 

@Override
public boolean doesContainerItemLeaveCraftingGrid(ItemStack stack)
{
    return false;
}


@Override
public ItemStack getContainerItem(ItemStack stack)
{
    ItemStack copy = stack.copy();
    copy.setItemDamage(copy.getItemDamage() + 1);
    copy.stackSize = 1;
    return copy;
}

 

After you register the item:

 

yourFlintSteel.setContainerItem(yourFlintSteel);

 

And in your recipe,

 

GameRegistry.addWhateverRecipe(new ItemStack(whatever), new ItemStack(yourFlintAndSteelItem, 1, Short.MAX_VALUE), whateverOtherItems);

 

 

Edit: missed a few things, whoops

the thing is i dont want to create another flint and steel
