Really Simple Code Issue

[hrayr4]

Hello all I have just begun modding in Minecraft and I have so many plans and ideas my head is going to burst! Ive been following the book Minecraft Modding with Forge (2015) and theres a snippet of code in there which should work perfectly but does not. I am new to Java and coding so any help would be appreciated thank you so much

 

 

package org.devoxx4kids.forge.mods;

 

import java.util.Random;

import net.minecraft.init.Blocks;

import net.minecraftforge.event.world.BlockEvent.BreakEvent;

import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.eventhandler.SubscribeEvent;

 

 

public class DiamondOreTrap {

@SubscribeEvent

public void explode(BreakEvent event) {

if (event.block != Blocks.diamond_ore) {

return;

}

event.world.createExplosion(null,

event.x, event.y, event.z,

10, true);

}

 

}

That looks like a really old version, as latest versions of forge is using blockStates.

 

Did you "register" your event?

[hrayr4]

Thank you for the quick reply!

 

Yes, with this line of code:

 

MinecraftForge.EVENT_BUS.register(new DiamondOreTrap());

 

but from what I understand, if its registered or not should not matter, as the program adds nothing new and makes use of imports so I do not know what the issue is

 

EDIT: This is forge for 1.8 minecraft, recommended

You should update to at least 1.8.9, ideally 1.10.2 or even 1.11 at this point.

I am using the Minecraft Modding with Forge as a guide. If it really is an issue with version, how could i fix it?

Go here:

http://files.minecraftforge.net/

Click on a version that's newer.

Download the latest MDK for that version.

 

Everything else will pretty much be the same.  There will be some alterations in how some things are done, but it's all available on the forums.
