[1.12] Nbt Crafting

[_Bedrockbreaker_]

I want an item, that when crafted with different dyes, changes its nbt to reflect the average color, like dyeing leather armor/ sort-of like fireworks. The only thing I can assume I need is two textures, one for static colors, and another for one that is dynamically changed with the color, which would be overlayed onto the first. And how could I take that item and craft it into a block (for example) and still have that block retain its color? or armor crafted with the same item?

You will need to make a custom IRecipe implementation. You should look at the ItemArmor for how the LeatherArmor texture works.

Okay, so I think I managed to copy create a class that behaves like RecipesArmorDyes, but how would I register that? GameRegistry.addRecipe give me a resource location, but that would be for an external file. And I can't seem to find any other registry method to do this anymore that isn't deprecated in 1.12.

Recipes now use the Forge registry system, so subscribe to RegistryEvent.Register<IRecipe> and register an instance of the recipe using IForgeRegistry#register.

 

When possible, you should register recipes through JSON files rather than in code. To allow your IRecipe class to be used by JSON files, create an IRecipeFactory class for it and specify it in _factories.json.

 

You can see some examples of IRecipe and IRecipeFactory implementations here, the _factories.json file here and the recipe files here.

Yes, most of my recipes are registered through json, but I don't think that json allows you to do advanced recipes that give nbt-specific items based on certain inputs. (armor dying)

It does if you create your own recipe class and factory, as I explained in my previous post.

Okay... It just seems the vanilla classes to register the armor dying (or it seems anything that uses dying/cloning items/tipped arrows) don't use jsons... Will try to move my class to json though...

(This is just to check to see if I have the right idea) Okay, So when looking at the files, you have gold_helmet_from_iron_helmet.json that actually specifies the recipe. The type tag on the json specifies the class that _factories.json uses to modify that recipe. (What does the data tag do on the iron helmet?) Then, the ShapedArmorUpgradeRecipe which iterates over the crafting slots until it finds an armor piece. Then, it takes the damage of the iron helmet, and copies it onto the golden helmet. (doesn't the iron helmet have more durability, which wouldn't effect the golden helmet until the iron helmet's durability got low enough? Or does it take any damage on the iron helmet on apply it to the golden helmet, meaning that a barely broken iron helmet could result in a completely broken golden helmet? Or is it a ratio, which I see none of in the class, that as the iron helmet takes more damage, the golden takes less, but both meet at 0.)

32767 is the value of OreDictionary.WILDCARD_VALUE, which tells the Ingredient to accept any metadata value of the item. This allow an Iron Helmet with any amount of damage to be used in the recipe.

Minecraft uses the metadata as the amount of damage the item has taken, so 0 is no damage and X (where X is the maximum damage) is just about to break.

 

ShapedArmourUpgradeRecipe clamps the output item's damage between 0 and its max damage, so if the Iron Helmet has more than 77 damage (the max damage of a Gold Helmet), the damage on the Gold Helmet will be clamped to 77. This means that an Iron Helmet with anywhere from 0 to 88 durability will be converted to a Gold Helmet with 0 durability.

Okay! Thanks for helping!
