How do logs rotate?

[AzureusNation123]

So i've got these blocks that also have metadata, but y question is "How do i get these blocks to rotate like logs do when you place them?"

public class Blocksiding extends Block

This goes in your block class

 

public void onBlockPlacedBy(World world, int i, int j, int k, EntityLiving entityliving)
{
	int rotation = MathHelper
			.floor_double((double) ((entityliving.rotationYaw * 4F) / 360F) + 2.5D) & 3;
	world.setBlockMetadata(i, j, k, rotation - 1);
}

you may have to toy with the world.setBlockMetaData(i,j, rotation *1*); but it might work straight off haven't tested this.

Ok so now what ever meta data block i place goes like this???

How are you storing your logs meta data for rotations

 

for example

the vanilla oak log facing straight up is meta 0

its rotated north/south is meta 4

and rotated east/west is meta 8

you still haven't explained how you are working out what direction the block will be facing with the meta data.

 

are you doing the same as vanilla? meta data n = face up, n + 4 = face north/south n + 8 = face west/east?

ive got my code its here take a look:

Please take the time to read what I said so I can help. I am NOT a mind reader, all I can see in your code is blocks with meta data just like most other blocks have

[AzureusNation123]

ive add in comments to explain my code but its not the rotation any more its adding more than 4 blocks to rotate otherwise they go like in the picture a few posts above

 

and yes im using the vinilla way

i do all of that and you still dont help me WOW!!!

[AzureusNation123]

Still Unsolved all i want to know is how to add 16 blocks so they can rotate like wood blocks, i already have 4 done but it doesn't let me go over that or they go strange
