Checking collision box for a specific block type

Featured Replies

Posted

I am trying to find out how i can make my custom block check its collision box for contact with another specific block, In my Case Water.

 

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

  • Author

basically, i use this for my solar panel, within my main mod and refer to it within the blocks class.

 

It is to detect whether there is light at a full level at coordinates x,y+1,z (above the block 'solar panel')

 

public static boolean isSolar(World world, int x, int y, int z, int blockID)
{
	if(world.getBrightness(x, y + 1, z, 0) > .99)//fiddle with the .99 for brightness
	{
				return true;
	}

	else
	{
				return false;
	}

}

 

I am looking for something to replace

 

world.getBrightness

 

to check a position for water.

Don't double post, edit your posts -.-

Also, get the block id, check if it's the water block.. how difficult is that?

I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated.
