Ive got a issue with my Cloud Capsule, ive got it to fill up when u go above Y:128 but when its been filling up and you drop it, it gives you back the first metadata item instead of 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10.

 

Heres my CloudCapsule Code:

 

 

package skycraft.items;

 

import java.util.List;

 

import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.Side;

import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.SideOnly;

import skycraft.SkyCraft;

import skycraft.core.common.CommonProxySkyCraft;

import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;

import net.minecraft.item.Item;

import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;

import net.minecraft.util.MathHelper;

 

public class ItemCloudCapsule extends Item

{

public static final String[] cloudCapsule = new String[] {"", " : 1", " : 2", " : 3", " : 4", " : 5", " : 6", " : 7", " : 8", " : 9", " : 10"};

 

public ItemCloudCapsule(int id)

{

super(id);

this.setCreativeTab(SkyCraft.tabSkyCraftItems);

this.setMaxDamage(0);

this.setHasSubtypes(true);

this.setIconCoord(3, 0);

this.setItemName("Cloud Capsules");

}

 

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)

    public int getIconFromDamage(int par1)

    {

        int var2 = MathHelper.clamp_int(par1, 0, 10);

        return this.iconIndex + var2 % 1 * 1 + var2 / 1;

    }

 

@Override

public String getItemNameIS(ItemStack itemstack) {

return getItemName() + "." + cloudCapsule[itemstack.getItemDamage()];

}

 

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)

public void getSubItems(int par1, CreativeTabs par2CreativeTabs, List par3List)

{

    for (int var2 = 0; var2 < 11; ++var2)

    {

        par3List.add(new ItemStack(par1, 1, var2));

        }

}

 

public String getTextureFile()

    {

            return CommonProxySkyCraft.Items_PNG;

    }

}

 

 

 

And also heres my tickupdate for this item:

 

 

package skycraft.core.client;

 

import java.util.EnumSet;

 

import net.minecraft.client.Minecraft;

import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;

import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;

import skycraft.SkyCraftItems;

import cpw.mods.fml.client.FMLClientHandler;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.ITickHandler;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.TickType;

 

public class CloudCollecterHandler implements ITickHandler {

 

@Override

public void tickStart(EnumSet<TickType> type, Object... tickData)

{

 

}

 

int ticker = 0;

@Override

public void tickEnd(EnumSet<TickType> type, Object... tickData)

{

Minecraft minecraft = FMLClientHandler.instance().getClient();

        EntityPlayer player = minecraft.thePlayer;

        ItemStack itemStack = null;

       

        if(player!= null)

        {

        itemStack = player.inventory.getCurrentItem();

        if(itemStack != null)

        {

        if(player.posY >= 128 && minecraft.inGameHasFocus && itemStack.getItem() == SkyCraftItems.cloudCapsule)

            {

        if(itemStack.getItemDamage() < 10 && ticker == 80)

        {

        itemStack.setItemDamage(itemStack.getItemDamage() + 1);

        ticker = 0;

        }

        else

        ticker++;

            }

        else

        ticker = 0;

        }

        }

}

 

@Override

public EnumSet<TickType> ticks()

{

return EnumSet.of(TickType.CLIENT, TickType.CLIENTGUI, TickType.RENDER);

}

 

@Override

public String getLabel()

{

return null;

}

 

}

 

 

 

thanks in advance

PLEASE HELP

saving the data in an NBT tag could be nice.

 

okay. I'll just shut my mouth from now on then.

could you give me an example with the code please thanks

you need to save the meta to nbt, then u do

public int damageDropped(int par1){

do stuff

}

because if the player drops the block from inventory, the first metadata will be dropped, also damage dropped its for items too .
