Override slotClicked and return null(maybe just return? can't remember) if that item shouldn't be placed in the slot number passed in, otherwise, call the super.

 

You can get the itemstack that is currently stuck to the players mouse by doing a player.inventory.getItemStack()

 

Edit: Return the ItemStack, not null. Returning Null will delete the item in their hand.

Not be rude, by I really think that If you don't have at least a decent understanding in java you shouldn't be doing forge modding.

 

The reason:

 

case 0: if(par1ItemStack.getItem() instanceof Item.blazeRod)

 

does not work is because instanceof is used to check if an Item is of the class type. Item.blazeRod isn't a class type but rather an instance of a class. To get it to work I would do

 

case 0: if(par1ItemStack.getItem().shiftedIndex == Item.blazeRod.shiftedIndex){

//code in here

}
