I know that similar things have been posted in the past, here, but they were all about tile entities. My block is just a normal block, based similarly to how the Terracotta blocks are in 1.12 snapshots.

 

Basically, I want it so when the block is placed, depending on the player's direction when placing the block, the block is rotated a certain way. I'm not sure how to go about doing that.

 

Like the Terracotta blocks, my blocks have different meta values depending on the color of the block, if that makes a difference...

 

Thanks in advance,

I don't think that 1.7.10 uses .json for block rotation. I thought that was a 1.8 and later thing.

 

BlockLog doesn't rotate based on player placement, does it? I thought it was based on how it's placed next to a block....

 

Edit: I'm copying code from BlockPumpkin, which assigns meta values to my blocks, but I think it's messing with the meta values I've assigned to my blocks i.e. placing East or North will not rotate my block or do anything special, but placing West created my Brown block, no rotation, and placing South created my Blue block, no rotation.

    • Managed to solve the issue myself. Solved by a fresh modpack instance.

    • Rubidium and Embeddium are versions of the same mod, you can only have one. I believe Embeddium is the one that's actively maintained.
    • Hello, New to modding, but have a solid CS foundation. I've created multiple custom BlockEntities that all have the same issue, which is that the inventory only updates on right click (overriding the useItemOn method). I've seen multiple posts on here outlining a similar issue to mine, but I've already implemented the solution of: overriding the correct methods in the BlockEntity class and calling setChanged(). I've tried every different place for setChanged() to no success. I'm wondering if I'm missing something else or if there was some change to sending data to the client in 1.21.5? Or will I have to use a custom packet sender? Here is the code for one of my BlockEntity classes with a single inventory slot: public class MyCustomBlockEntity extends BlockEntity { public final ItemStackHandler inventory = new ItemStackHandler(1) { @Override protected int getStackLimit(int slot, @NotNull ItemStack stack) { return 1; } @Override protected void onContentsChanged(int slot) { setChanged(); if (!level.isClientSide()) { level.setBlockAndUpdate(getBlockPos(), getBlockState()); } } }; public MyCustomBlockEntity(BlockPos pPos, BlockState pBlockState) { super(ModBlockEntities.MY_CUSTOM_BE.get(), pPos, pBlockState); } public void clearContents() { inventory.setStackInSlot(0, ItemStack.EMPTY); } public void dropItem() { SimpleContainer inv = new SimpleContainer(inventory.getSlots()); inv.setItem(0, inventory.getStackInSlot(0)); Containers.dropContents(this.level, this.worldPosition, inv); } @Override public void setRemoved() { dropItem(); super.setRemoved(); } @Override protected void saveAdditional(CompoundTag pTag, HolderLookup.Provider pRegistries) { super.saveAdditional(pTag, pRegistries); pTag.put("inventory", inventory.serializeNBT(pRegistries)); } @Override protected void loadAdditional(CompoundTag pTag, HolderLookup.Provider pRegistries) { super.loadAdditional(pTag, pRegistries); inventory.deserializeNBT(pRegistries, pTag.getCompound("inventory").get()); } @Override public Packet<ClientGamePacketListener> getUpdatePacket() { return ClientboundBlockEntityDataPacket.create(this); } @Override public CompoundTag getUpdateTag(HolderLookup.Provider pRegistries) { return saveWithoutMetadata(pRegistries); } } Mostly encountering the issue when calling the clearContents() method anywhere outside of useItemOn() in the Block class. I've also tried overriding both the handleUpdateTag() and onDataPacket() methods, calling their super along with loadAdditional(), but neither changed the outcome. Thanks in advance for any replies.
