Crafting Container Item

[Ronaldi2001]

Hi, I want to have a crafting recipe have a container item, but I want it only to be a container item 10% of the time its used tot craft. If its possible how would I start this?

 

Thank you!

You can override Item#getContainerItem(ItemStack) to return an ItemStack 10% of the time.

 

Also, wrong section. This should be in Modder Support.

So I have this for the the percentage, how would I make it so that it makes a new number when the item is being crafted and not just on the world startup? I made it a string so that I could see the number that it was generating.

 

	int min = 1;
	int max = 10;
	
	Random r = new Random();
	int i1 = r.nextInt(max - min + 1) + min;
	
	String SNumber = String.valueOf(i1);

Don't create a new Random every time, create one and store it. Item#itemRand already contains a Random instance that you can use.

 

You need to generate the random number in your override of Item#getContainerItem(ItemStack).

How do I create a random number without it saving and it keeps running?

Just generate the number locally inside the getContainerItem method. The local variable will be discared once the method returns, and a new one will be created each time the method is called.
