Hello. I am working on a mod which called Tiny Chest.

So i did work on it but now i have problems

i want to make the block to provide a redstone Signal.

But i tried and fail every time.

i have no clue how this works!

 

Here is the Sourcecode of my mod (last update failed and the redstonecode is not online.):

 

https://github.com/Speiger/DynamicTools/tree/master/spmod_common/speiger/src

 

So my problem is how can i make a redstone Signal on a Specail Side?

 

update to 1.5 then look at the trapped chest class

I have IC2 Source, RedPower source and much more. They have redstone signals. i read it but i do not understand it!

Dude update and look in the traped chest or Redstone touch code.

Explain me how it works because i do not understand the code!!!!!!!!!!

 

  //Does your the block emit power? 
  public boolean canProvidePower()
    {
        return true;
    }

//Does this block provide strong(Direct power)
    public int isProvidingStrongPower(IBlockAccess par1IBlockAccess, int par2, int par3, int par4, int par5)
    {
        //Some check to determine if the block should emit any power and returns a boolean value. Example name = isPowering
        return isPowering;
    }

Weak power will be handled according with normal propagation rules AFAIK

I haven't tested this so I'm not sure it works but I just had a read of restone torch class to see what that does.

This is very basic, if you don't understand this please go learn Java and read and understand as much of the MC source code as you can. It really helps. For example go and look at how other similar functioning blocks work.
