[1.12] Smelting recipe for only certain fuel?

[IceMetalPunk]

Is there a way to register a smelting recipe that requires a certain fuel item? For instance, a recipe that only works if you smelt the item with coal, but not if you smelt it with wood or lava? Since the GameRegistry.addSmelting methods don't have options for that, I thought I'd need to use event handling, but while there are events for pre-and-post brewing, I can't find any for smelting.

So how would I do this?

I don't think this is possible, you'd need to use a regular crafting recipe or create your own crafting process (e.g. a machine).

Hm. That's annoying. I'm trying to make my mod as vanilla-feeling as possible, and having a special machine for just one recipe (or a small handful) puts it in the mod-feel realm.

Thanks for the info; I'll see if there's some hacky workaround I can come up with, or else just scrap the feature I was planning.

 

*EDIT* Speaking of workarounds, it seems substitution aliases no longer exist. What would be the proper way to replace the vanilla furnace block with a custom one that implements my custom recipes? Because that may work, if it can be done.

They're not gone.

Ah. I could swear I tried registering a block with the same name as a Minecraft block (and domain), and got an error for trying to register duplicate entries. Then again, I haven't been using the registry events, and have been registering things in the preInit, so I'll try to switch over to the events and see if I can get it working after all.

Thank you!

It's new with that PR which was merged 5-6 days ago.

Ah, I didn't even look at the date! >_< I may switch over to the newest release, then, at some point. For now, I'll make sure the rest of my mod is functional and then transition after.

 

Thanks for the help!
