I'll be the first to admit that I'm new to coding and modding in particular, but I'm fairly confident I have (most, obviously, certainly not all) of this code correct.

It appears that the TileEntity isn't working at all, either that or I somehow failed to connect the two properly.

I'm still going over it trying to figure out what's keeping the Firepit from working,  anyone else got any ideas where I went wrong?

Do not use ITileEntityProvider. It is old, out dated, bad, and broken.

Just use the hasTileEntity and getTileEntity methods already available in the Block class.

hasTileEntity is shown as deprecated, and getTileEntity doesn't appear to be in the Block Class, could there be something else you're referring to?

Also, I'm fairly new to this, can you provide an example of how I would use this?

Most block methods are deprecated but that's irrelevant as the point of deprecated methods is "do not invoke" which says nothing about overriding (that is: if you want to know about a block, as its IBlockState object, not the block).

Ah, as it turns out there is a non-deprecated version of hasTileEntity, but I still don't see a getTileEntity.

Sorry, it's createTileEntity.

So are you saying not to implement ITileEntityProvider at all?  Or to do so but use createTileEntity to make it?

Yes. That is precisely what I am saying.
