I just can't make this work.

Hello,

I have been trying to make a working update for one of my mods for hours today, but I just can't figure these two things out: how do you test for an ore dictionary value of a specific type, and how do you change the item type of an itemstack?

Please define "specific type". Do you mean how to test whether the ore dictionary contains itemstacks for a specific name? Use OreDictionary.getOres. Use the overload that also takes a bool. The list will be empty if the given name was not associated with any itemstacks in the oredict.

You don't. You construct a new itemstack with the new item and use the new one.
