I'm having trouble with my custom ice block that is supposed to change into 8 more blocks shortly after placed.  I used #scheduleBlockUpdate in 1.7.10 and replaced it with #scheduleUpdate in 1.8 but I don't really get what's happening ...I think the third parameter is the tickRate which I set to 1, and I have tried setting setTickRandomly both true and false. What I want to happen works when #setTickRandomly is true but the blocks update truly randomly, not immediately.  When I have #setTickRandomly set to false, nothing happens , ie, the custom block ice that I place does not change at all . . .

 

Do I have the parameters wrong?  Using wrong method?  no idea what is the problem...

 

 

this is my LiquidIce class, that is, my custom block ice:

Perhaps I'm not quite understanding your intentions, but why are you even bothering with the scheduling updates? If you want it to happen instantly why don't you just put your code in the onBlockAdded method? If you insist, however, you are not overriding Block#onBlockAdded, as you forgot the IBlockState parameter. Try Block#onBlockAdded(World world, BlockPos pos, IBlockState state) instead.

I originally had a slight delay which made a cool effect when I placed the block ...a freezing effect...

 

Thanks for the quick reply ...you are MLG boss  works great now I set the tickRate to 30 and it works just the way I had planned ...
