Posted October 22, 20169 yr I am trying to get the name of a block that is set in an anvil, during an event. so for example, if I took a dirt block and named it 'oak' in an anvil, how could I actually get that name during a BlockEvent.BlockBreak listener. I have been looking for a method for quite a while now. Check out my mod MineQuery on curseForge https://minecraft.curseforge.com/projects/minequery Javascript for minecraft!
October 22, 20169 yr Author I have found that it looks like block.getPickBlock(state, null, world, pos, null).getDisplayName() works. But I'm not sure if this is the best possible way.

October 22, 20169 yr Once you place a Block in the world, it forgets the ItemStack 's data, including the display name. This means that if you name a dirt block "oak", place it in the world, and break it, it is just a normal dirt block without a name. Don't PM me with questions. They will be ignored! Make a thread on the appropriate board for support. 1.12 -> 1.13 primer by williewillus. 1.7.10 and older versions of Minecraft are no longer supported due to it's age! Update to the latest version for support. http://www.howoldisminecraft1710.today/

I have been looking for a method for quite a while now. When a block is placed check the ItemStack for the name then save the blockpos as a key in a Map and the name in the value. You would then have to save and load this to disk via WorldSavedData or Capabilites (not sure if capabilities for worlds are supported as of yet). Then with harvest block even add it to the dropped ItemStack. VANILLA MINECRAFT CLASSES ARE THE BEST RESOURCES WHEN MODDING I will be posting 1.15.2 modding tutorials on this channel. If you want to be notified of it do the normal YouTube stuff like subscribing, ect. Forge and vanilla BlockState generator.
