Hello! My block Drill's name is not displaying correctly. The block has the three properties, PropertyEnum for types, PropertyDirection for model rotation and PropertyBool for redstone activation. For some reason, both the basic drill and advanced drill, in the inventory show the same block.drill.basic.name. Yet, the placed blocks display (using Waila) the block.drill.basic.name and block.drill.advanced.name. I'm presuming it's an issue with it's unlocalized name in my block's BlockDrill.java?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Can you show us your language file (en_US.lang I guess) ?

It's not to do with the lang. I haven't added the block's into the lang purely so you can see the raw name. I'm almost certain the issue is to do with it's SpecialName or UnlocalizedName.

Sorry, my bad.

Have you check when you register your blocks that the String is correct ? It could be a copy/paste which has not been edited.

Are you talking about my ModBlocks.java? If so, here's the code:

I'm sorry, I'm not good enough to help you. Maybe take a look at Thermal Expansion mod which has something similar with upgrades.

Okay, thanks for you help.

FIXED NOW!
