How would I go about setting an items creative tab with the new 1.13 update? I tried using

setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.MISC);

but that no longer seems to be a function...

Please help!

Oh wait I figured it out!

 

public class DebugItem extends Item {
	public DebugItem() {
		super(new Properties());
        getCreativeTabs().add(ItemGroup.MISC);
	}
}

 

public class DebugItem extends Item {
	public DebugItem() {
		super(new Properties());
        getCreativeTabs().add(ItemGroup.MISC);
	}
}

Instead of this you could do this:

new Item(new Item.Properties().group(GroupsRef.GROUP_TEST_MOD)).setRegistryName(NAME_VOID_INGOT)

 

 

For the future - you can always look at how vanilla does it's things. You can see how items are constructed at the bottom of the Item class, blocks at the bottom of the Block class, entities at the top of EntityType, and so on.

Thanks @V0idWa1k3r

Have you gotten this to work with ItemBlocks? I have gotten my item blocks registering and showing up correctly using /give @p but nothing is loading into the creative tabs despite using that same Item.Properties builder

Here is my item block code. This loads into my tab

@SubscribeEvent
		public static void registerItems(final RegistryEvent.Register<Item> event)
		{
			event.getRegistry().registerAll
			(
				ItemList.tutorial_block = new ItemBlock(BlockList.tutorial_block, new Item.Properties().group(tutorial)).setRegistryName(BlockList.tutorial_block.getRegistryName())
			);
			
			Item.BLOCK_TO_ITEM.put(BlockList.tutorial_block, ItemList.tutorial_block);
		}

		}

 

Odd, Im doing basically the same thing: 

 

Item.Properties properties = new Item.Properties().group(ItemGroup.COMBAT);

Item itemBlock = new ItemBlock(block, properties).setRegistryName(resourceLocation);

 

And then initializing it in my <item> subscribe event

Are you doing the Item.BLOCK_TO_ITEM thing?

As far as I can tell this bug has been fixed so you just need to simply update your forge instead of manually adding things to that map.
