[1.10.2] Quick reference on Blocks, Items and all that stuff.

[Ernio]

Hey there,

 

I haven't touched blocks, etc in damn long time and I basically want quick update as to what you do.

If someone could, please list every method you use in current modding of Blocks, Items and ItemBlock (I see there is no constructor taking ItemBlock?).

Just methods and classes (for other magical stuff) and maybe other references, also client stuff and variants and shit like that) - basically everything that comes to your mind.

 

Note: No need for any long descriptions.

 

Thanks

Can't you just go on youtube and watch a tutorial (~5 minutes long)?

If you find me a tutorial listing all (probably about 15) methods regarding blocks, variants items-blocks and items in less than 5min - I will love you.

If not - I am asking for a simple favor that can save me probably hour of looking and checking if given method is actually the right way.

Okay, 1st question:

 

Registry name is: modid:name

Should unlocalized name also contain modid?

 

// constructor
// name = "block"
this.setRegistryName(name); // internally converts to "modid:block"
this.setUnlocalizedName(this.getRegistryName().toString()); // will set to "modid:block"
// or
this.setUnlocalizedName(name); // will stay "block"

Does mc/forge somehow recognise per-mod lang translations?

For "modid:block" I am getting for example: "tile.modid:block.name" - is modid needed?

Asking because I've never did it this way, and I just saw this in some opensource.

 

2nd

Is is safe to assume that calling GameRegistry from constructor is safe - I know it is a bad practice, but I also know that it works, question is is it safe for internals (I can't really think of critical cases).
