[1.13.2] how do i make a block rotate by player facing, if i place it?

[Drachenbauer]

How do i make a block, that get´s it´s rotation like a furnace, if i place it, to place it in 4 rotations?

 

It seams like the launcher has problems with:

Spoiler

    public IBlockState withRotation(IBlockState state, Rotation rot)
    {
        return state.with(FACING, rot.rotate((EnumFacing) state.get(FACING)));
    }

    public IBlockState getStateForPlacement(World worldIn, BlockPos pos, EnumFacing facing, float hitX, float hitY, float hitZ, int meta, EntityLivingBase placer)
    {
        return this.getDefaultState().with(FACING, placer.getHorizontalFacing().getOpposite());
    }

 

I found this in my error log:

Quote

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Cannot set property DirectionProperty{name=facing, clazz=class net.minecraft.util.EnumFacing, values=[north, south, west, east]} as it does not exist in Block{null}

To operate some property in the block, you must kind of registry it
 

    protected void fillStateContainer(StateContainer.Builder<Block, IBlockState> builder) {
        builder.add(FACING);
    }

i have this (in the constructor):

this.setDefaultState(this.stateContainer.getBaseState().with(FACING, EnumFacing.NORTH));

is it useless now?

No, both are necessary AFAIK. Look at the vanilla furnace, it does exactly what you want
