Continuing from 

I am going to be following the same format of editing the post and describing my actions to create this mod to add new plants.

To be specific, I am going to be adding new blocks, items, sounds and recipes.

 

 

Updates: 

-Adding first plant block (Bamboo)

Spoiler

First read through the documentation at https://mcforge.readthedocs.io/en/latest/blocks/blocks/

Then found some examples from

that I will be working from.

 

-Create new Package and Class named accordingly (plants.bamboo) (BlockBamboo.java)

Spoiler

I will be basing this heavily on @TheGreyGhost's TheGreyGhost MinecraftByExample03_block_variants

as well as the BlockCactus.java from net.minecraft.block

often using the documentation, so also familiarize yourself with the models section MCForge ReadTheDocs Models

 

-Make BlockBamboo extend Block and  implement IPlantable

import net.minecraft.block.Block;

public class BlockBamboo extends Block implements net.minecraftforge.common.IPlantable{
}

This requires us to add a constructor giving the Material for the block

	protected BlockBamboo()
	{
		super(Material.PLANTS);
	}

which requires import net.minecraft.block.material.Material
 

Spoiler

For now I pulled a material that seemed right from Material.class

This isn't related to texture

 

-Need Imports for next steps

import net.minecraft.block.properties.PropertyInteger;
import net.minecraft.block.state.IBlockState;
import net.minecraft.util.math.BlockPos;
import net.minecraft.world.IBlockAccess;
import net.minecraft.world.World;

-Define an age property before constructor inside class to determine growth

public static final PropertyInteger AGE = PropertyInteger.create("age", 0, 7);

-Initialize the age to 0 inside of our constructor

this.setDefaultState(this.blockState.getBaseState().withProperty(AGE, Integer.valueOf(0)));

 

-IPlantable requires us to implement EnumPlantType getPlantType() and IBlockState getPlant() Both of which are just asking for more metadata about the plant

	@Override
	public EnumPlantType getPlantType(IBlockAccess world, BlockPos pos)
	{	return net.minecraftforge.common.EnumPlantType.Beach;	}

	@Override
	public IBlockState getPlant(IBlockAccess world, BlockPos pos) 
	{	return getDefaultState();	}
Spoiler

The list of return choices from EnumPlantType.class is Plains, Desert, Beach, Cave, Water, Nether or Crop
getPlant just wants the block state from our block. Documentation here https://mcforge.readthedocs.io/en/latest/models/blockstates/forgeBlockstates/#

 

 

-A quick thing to do is set creative tab

import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;

and in the constructor for our block 

this.setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.DECORATIONS);

 

-Need Random Ticks for Growth, Add inside constructor

this.setTickRandomly(true);

-Then we need an UpdateTick function to tell it to grow

Spoiler

Full code for updateTick


 public void updateTick(World worldIn, BlockPos pos, IBlockState state, Random rand)
 {
   if (!worldIn.isAreaLoaded(pos, 1)) return; // Forge: prevent growing cactus from loading unloaded chunks with block update
   BlockPos blockpos = pos.up();

   if (worldIn.isAirBlock(blockpos))
   {
     int i;

     for (i = 1; worldIn.getBlockState(pos.down(i)).getBlock() == this; ++i)
     {
       ;
     }

     if (i < 6)//Maximum Height
     {
       int j = ((Integer)state.getValue(AGE)).intValue();

       if(net.minecraftforge.common.ForgeHooks.onCropsGrowPre(worldIn, blockpos, state, true))
       {
         if (j == 7)
         {
           worldIn.setBlockState(blockpos, this.getDefaultState());
           IBlockState iblockstate = state.withProperty(AGE, Integer.valueOf(0));
           worldIn.setBlockState(pos, iblockstate, 4);
           iblockstate.neighborChanged(worldIn, blockpos, this, pos);
         }
         else
         {
           worldIn.setBlockState(pos, state.withProperty(AGE, Integer.valueOf(j + 1)), 4);
         }
         net.minecraftforge.common.ForgeHooks.onCropsGrowPost(worldIn, pos, state, worldIn.getBlockState(pos));
       }
     }
   }
 }

public void neighborChanged(IBlockState state, World worldIn, BlockPos pos, Block blockIn, BlockPos fromPos)
{	}

 

 

 

-Which was pulled from the BlockCactus.class with only the maximum height, max age and neighborChanged edited

Spoiler

worldIn.isAreaLoaded 

is to determine if the plant is currently in a loaded chunk
 


BlockPos blockpos = pos.up();
        if (worldIn.isAirBlock(blockpos))

determines if the block above our plant is air

 


for (i = 1; worldIn.getBlockState(pos.down(i)).getBlock() == this; ++i)
  if (i < 6)

Checks how many tall our plant is, maximum it lets it grow is 6

 


int j = ((Integer)state.getValue(AGE)).intValue();
if(net.minecraftforge.common.ForgeHooks.onCropsGrowPre(worldIn, blockpos, state, true))
{	if (j == 7)

pregrowth event true if allowing growth

checks age
 


worldIn.setBlockState(blockpos, this.getDefaultState());
IBlockState iblockstate = state.withProperty(AGE, Integer.valueOf(0));
worldIn.setBlockState(pos, iblockstate, 4);

Sets the new block and resets growth states

 


iblockstate.neighborChanged(worldIn, blockpos, this, pos);

We use this later on when we want to change the model for being next to other blocks

 


else
{	worldIn.setBlockState(pos, state.withProperty(AGE, Integer.valueOf(j + 1)), 4);		}

Otherwise ages the plant and finishes with after crop growth event


net.minecraftforge.common.ForgeHooks.onCropsGrowPost(worldIn, pos, state, worldIn.getBlockState(pos));

 

 

We're leaving neightborChanged definition empty for now
