Blocks created by setBlockState not saved

[HConfigs]

Hi all,

 

I'm fairly new to minecraft modding, but I have been struggling with the following issue for a while and couldn't find an answer. I would like to use my mod to create some structures. I have two possible ways of doing this, and as an example I apply both in the following code snippet (which is executed when a key is pressed)

           

            EntityPlayerSP player = Minecraft.getMinecraft().player; 
            
            int x = 16 * player.chunkCoordX + 5;
            int y = 16 * player.chunkCoordY + 10;
            int z = 16 * player.chunkCoordZ + 5;
            
            player.world.setBlockState(new BlockPos(x,y,z), Blocks.STONE.getDefaultState() );
            player.sendChatMessage( "/setblock "+ (x) + " " + (y+15) + " " + z + " stone");

 

When I run minecraft with this mod, open a world, press the relevant key, indeed two blocks appear. Next, I 'save and quite to title' and after that I load the world again. Then only one block (the one created by sendChatMessage) is left. In other words, the blocks created by "player.world.setBlockState" are not saved. I have a preference for using the setBlockState method, but it I would like to know how to save the blocks in that case. Does anybody know what is going on?

Actually, that chat message looks like a clever workaround. The server will decide whether the player has the power to use the command, so you don't need to reinvent that wheel. Between setblock and fill, you ought to be able to encode quite a bit of power into your keystroke(s).
