So, I am not finding much info on registering stairs to the game, for 1.12.2, so I'm hoping someone can point to the error in my mod in which is making it crash, since eclipse is not popping any errors off and I have no idea where to go from here.

 

to start: crash log,

CustomBlocks.PILLARUP_BLOCK.getDefaultState()

This is null. It needs to not be null.

Edited September 27, 20186 yr by Draco18s

Could you explain further, please? I think I'm overlooking/thinking how it's null. Not looking for the answer just confused as to how it's null so i can look for it in the future.

side note, i did find a typo in the code but it's still the same error.

Edited September 27, 20186 yr by Kaelym

@Kaelym I know why it's null, because the @GameRegistry.ObjectHolder value is probably different from what was set in the item's setRegistryName and setUnlocalizedName and/or you didn't register your item in your common proxy.

Edited September 27, 20186 yr by Spaceboy Ross

I went back over it, again again. Firstly, following your post in order, I have not changed my ObjectHolder since I started writing, and keep my blocks relatively organized so they do not change. I checked all of pillarup_block's files, to ensure they were in working order and it works just fine.
Secondly, I do not have a common proxy, I have a Client and a Server Proxy, I am under the impression that common proxy is relatively useless.

However, thank you for trying to help. =] Still don't get it ?

Common proxies are normal, they run in both client and server side. All of my mods use them to register items, blocks, event handlers, etc.

No, its null because @ObjectHolder annotations are handled after registration and the code I quoted is running before/during registration.

Thank you, Draco. That cleared a lot up. =]

They also don’t make logical sense & are an anti pattern

 

proxies are places for dedicated code. So your common proxy holds code that is only run everywhere? ?

Common code runs in your main mod class. There is no reason to move it into a "common" proxy.

Draco, do you happen to have a Reference for my problem? Might help me see better how I'm doing this wrong.

You can't reference your objectholder fields until Init (ObjectHolders are filled at the end of the registry events, which run between PreInit and Init). If you want to pass the block to the stair, you need a local variable.

Oh ok, thank you again!
