[1.7.10] How to get harvest level from Tool? [RESOLVED]

[WeiseGuy]

Hey guys,

 

I'm having a small issue (brain fart if you will) on how the heck I can check the harvest level of a tool used in the OnBlockDropItems event. I feel I'm missing just one little thing, and I can't seem to find a method that would be along the lines of .getHarvestLevel() which grabs the harvest level of a tool if its a shovel. This is what I'm working with so far.

 

@SubscribeEvent
    public void onBlockDropItems(BlockEvent.HarvestDropsEvent event) //This is overriding drop tables of vanilla blocks.
    {
        if (event.block == Blocks.gravel)
        {
            World world = event.world;
            EntityPlayer player = event.harvester;

            if(player.getCurrentEquippedItem() != null)
            {
                Item itemUsed = player.getCurrentEquippedItem().getItem(); // Checks what tool was that player used to break item.
                if (itemUsed == (Items.iron_shovel) || itemUsed == (Items.diamond_shovel)) //TODO check for material harvest level iron or better (2 or better)
                {
                    if (world.rand.nextFloat() < 0.25f) //25% Chance to drop a RoughCrystalFragment if using the right shovel!
                    {
                        event.drops.add(new ItemStack(ModItems.itemRoughCrystalFragment, world.rand.nextInt(2) + 1)); //drops RoughCrystalFragment 1-2
                    }
                }
            }
        }

Well,

 

I resolved it myself. Easy enough, as soon as I posted I realized another way to test this. I'll leave topic open in case people have input on a better way or anything, but this works for me to have a harvest level 2 or above, which is iron level or better. I think any mod would at some point use ItemSpade to extend from, so this should cover any mod shovel I believe.

 

    @SubscribeEvent
    public void onBlockDropItems(BlockEvent.HarvestDropsEvent event) //This is overriding drop tables of vanilla blocks.
    {
        if (event.block == Blocks.gravel)
        {
            World world = event.world;
            EntityPlayer player = event.harvester;

            if(player.getCurrentEquippedItem() != null && player.getCurrentEquippedItem().getItem() instanceof ItemSpade) //If its a shovel
            {
                Item toolUsed = player.getCurrentEquippedItem().getItem(); //Gets item used
                int toolUsedHarvestLevel = player.getCurrentEquippedItem().getItem().getHarvestLevel(new ItemStack(toolUsed), "shovel"); // Gets harvest level of said tool
                if (toolUsedHarvestLevel >= 2) //Iron or better, aka 2 or better.
                {
                    if (world.rand.nextFloat() < 0.25f) //25% Chance to drop a RoughCrystalFragment if using the right shovel!
                    {
                        event.drops.add(new ItemStack(ModItems.itemRoughCrystalFragment, world.rand.nextInt(2) + 1)); //drops RoughCrystalFragment 1-2
                    }
                }
            }
        }

Don't check if the item extends

ItemSpade

, that's not a reliable indicator that the tool functions as a shovel (Tinkers' Construct tools extend

ItemTool

directly, bypassing

ItemSpade

and the other subclasses); some tools may not even extend

ItemTool

. Just use the harvest level check, any tool that can't act as a shovel will simply return -1 from

Item#getHarvestLevel

.

 

Don't create a new

ItemStack

to pass to

Item#getHarvestLevel

, use the player's held

ItemStack

. Creating a new

ItemStack

will break any tool that uses metadata or NBT to determine the harvest level (e.g. Tinkers' Construct).

You make great points, thanks. I removed the check for ItemSpade, but how do I get the harvest level of the held item without making it an itemstack? getHarvestLevel requires (itemStack. toolClass) parameters. This is where I am at so far, is that what you meant? Code functions fine, just want to ensure I don't break other mods (well, at least try not to break tinkers since its pretty widely used).

            if(player.getHeldItem() != null) //If used an item.
            {
                ItemStack toolUsed = player.getHeldItem();
                int toolUsedHarvestLevel = player.getHeldItem().getItem().getHarvestLevel(toolUsed, "shovel"); // Gets harvest level of said tool
                if (toolUsedHarvestLevel >= 2) //Iron or better, aka 2 or better.
                {

                    {
                        event.drops.add(new ItemStack(ModItems.itemRoughCrystalFragment, world.rand.nextInt(2) + 1)); //drops RoughCrystalFragment 1-2
                    }
                }
            }
        }

I meant pass the player's held

ItemStack

to

getHarvestLevel

instead of creating a new one with metadata 0 and no NBT.

 

What you've done looks correct.
