ComputerCraze Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 I am trying to make a simple mod where there is fifty "dummy blocks" that you can assign textures to through a texture pack, perfect for a mapmaking scenario. However, I need the json files to be created when the mod is first run. I don't want to write all of the files manually (cut down on file size) so I want to create all of them by code, probably during the preInit cycle, before the actual blocks are initiated. Is there a way to run a specific section of code only when it is the first time running the mod? Thanks in advance, ComputerCraze Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coolAlias Posted April 9, 2016 Share Posted April 9, 2016 Sure: save a boolean value to your Config file. When you read the config, check if that value is false - if it is, generate the files, set the value to true, and save your config. Next time, the value will be read in as true and the files will not generate; in the future, you can always edit your config file and change the value back to false to re-generate the JSON files.
