Hi, I am starting in the forge programming (I think I know enough java) and I would like to create a 2 wide block like a bed, but I want it to be a table, I've been searching in the forums and I saw this.setBlockBounds(and a serie of floats) but when i put it it gives me an error saying me "Cannot resolve method 'setBlockBounds(float, float, float, float, float, float)". Can anyone help me please? 

 

EDIT: SOLVED

This leads me to believe you don’t know enough Java/have enough experience with an IDE. Either that or your using code from an ancient version. To change a blocks bounding box, you can override Block#getBoundingBox. However this box can be at maximum 1x1.5x1. Anything bigger than this needs multiple blocks. You can look at how the bed works (probably not the best example for your needs, but looking at vanilla code is always helpful), or at other mods that do similar things.

I can't do it, it says me it's deprecated, I am using forge 1.12.2 MDK

1. You might want to try looking at the vanilla bed and see how it handles it (manually sets and breaks adjacent bed block).

These indicate that you are not familiar with basic java. Please learn java before making a mod.

1. Do not follow tutorials on YouTube, especially TechnoVision (previously called Loremaster) and HarryTalks, due to their promotion of bad practice and usage of outdated code.

2. Always post your code.

3. Never copy and paste code. You won't learn anything from doing that.

Why? When it's deprecated it means that it remains in the api but it may be removed in future releases, am I wrong? I prefer not using deprecated methods, but if I need to use them I will ? there is no more chance I see

Mojang uses "depreciated" in the Block class (and only in the block class) to mean "invoke this from a BlockState, however overriding this is fine"

. This is your IDE telling you that the method does not exists; you should be able to interpret error messages like this.

I knew that, I was asking for any other method because I can't use it and I see it everywhere I search
