Hi

 

I have a block with a facing property

public static IProperty<EnumFacing> FACING = PropertyDirection.create("facing", EnumFacing.Plane.HORIZONTAL);

When I place it, I use the following code because the texture has orientation

@Override
    public IBlockState getStateForPlacement(World world, BlockPos pos, EnumFacing facing, float hitX, float hitY, float hitZ, int meta, EntityLivingBase placer, EnumHand hand) {
        //Debugging line
        System.out.println("Player facing: " + placer.getHorizontalFacing());
        return this.getDefaultState().withProperty(BlockProperties.FACING, placer.getHorizontalFacing());
    }

And after it has been placed I tried to debug to try to understand why the texture is changing orientation in the server

@Override
    public void onBlockPlacedBy(World worldIn, BlockPos pos, IBlockState state, EntityLivingBase placer, ItemStack stack) {
        //Debugging line
        System.out.println("Block facing:" + state.getProperties().get(BlockProperties.FACING));
        super.onBlockPlacedBy(worldIn, pos, state, placer, stack);
    }

 

When playing single player, everything works fine and the block looks good. No texture gets changed. But when playing on a server, the texture of the block changes orientation. On multiplayer server and single player, the output is the same on both methods. But on the server, I can temporarily see for a fraction of a second that once the block is placed, it rotates my texture, even though the facing of the block stays the same.

 

The version is 1.12.2

public class BlockChiseledMarble extends Block {

    public BlockChiseledMarble(Material materialIn) {
        super(materialIn);
        //Set the unlocalized and registry names
        this.setUnlocalizedName(References.ShinyModBlocks.BLOCKCHISELEDMARBLE.getUnlocalizedName());
        this.setRegistryName(References.ShinyModBlocks.BLOCKCHISELEDMARBLE.getRegistryName());
        //Set the hardness and harvest level
        this.setHardness(Blocks.STONE.getDefaultState().getBlockHardness(null, null));
        this.setHarvestLevel("pickaxe", 0);
      	//Set the sound for when breaking the block
        this.setSoundType(SoundType.STONE);
      
        this.setDefaultState(this.getDefaultState().withProperty(BlockProperties.FACING, EnumFacing.NORTH));
    }

    @Override
    public int getMetaFromState(IBlockState state) {
        EnumFacing facing = state.getValue(BlockProperties.FACING);
        int facingValue = facing.getHorizontalIndex();
        return facingValue;
    }

    @Override
    protected BlockStateContainer createBlockState() {
        IProperty<EnumFacing> properties = BlockProperties.FACING;
        return new BlockStateContainer(this, properties);
    }

    @Override
    public IBlockState getStateForPlacement(World world, BlockPos pos, EnumFacing facing, float hitX, float hitY, float hitZ, int meta, EntityLivingBase placer, EnumHand hand) {
        return this.getDefaultState().withProperty(BlockProperties.FACING, placer.getHorizontalFacing());
    }

}

 

BlockProperties is a class

public class BlockProperties {
    public static IProperty<EnumFacing> FACING = PropertyDirection.create("facing", EnumFacing.Plane.HORIZONTAL);
}

 

I remember that the tutorial I was following had getStateFromMeta implemented, but the IDE is marking that method as deprecated so I removed it. Is it still okay to use it? Isn't there another method?

I see. I implemented it like so

 

@Override
    public IBlockState getStateFromMeta(int meta) {
        EnumFacing enumFacing = EnumFacing.getHorizontal(meta);
        return this.getDefaultState().withProperty(BlockProperties.FACING, enumFacing);
    }

 

But I can still see for a fraction of a second the texture getting rotated. On the server only. This doesn't happen in single player. Maybe I wrongly implemented it?

 

Edit: I can see no errors on the server log either. Nor there is printed text when placing the block, other than anything I write with System.out.println(...)
