[1.7.10][1.8] .getItem() and metadata items

[PlayPrey]

Hello once again; Sorry for asking so many questions in a short period of time.

 

I have managed to get my mod to detect when something is smelted, however; I can't figure out how to do it with for example charcoal, or cactus green.

 

I tried (prepare to facepalm!)

 

if (e.smelting.getItem() == new ItemStack(Items.coal,1))

{

player.addStat(AE.burnFuel_to_receiveFuel, 1);               

}

 

The error is [incompatible operand types Item and ItemStack]

You are trying to compare an Item to an ItemStack (hence the error). You have to check the Item first (

ItemStack#getItem()

==

Items.coal

), and then the metadata (

ItemStack#getItemDamage()

== 1).

 

PS, I think

ItemStack#getItemDamage()

is called

ItemStack#getMetadata()

in MC 1.8.

Thank you! It now works flawlessly

 

Also; diesieben07 ; I tried to say I had NOT touched Java since 2012 - So stuff is a little difficult to begin with. Im sorry about this.
