OreDictionary.WILDCARD_VALUE

[DiamondMiner88]

As the title says, i have no idea how to use it. I try this:

{
  "type": "forge:ore_shapeless",
  "ingredients": [
    {
      "item": "character_mod:mold_a"
    },
    {
      "item": "minecraft:stained_glass",
      "data": 15
    },
    {
      "type": "forge:ore_dict",
      "ore": "cm_cutterGlass"
    }
  ],
  "result": {
    "item": "character_mod:a_glass_black"
  }
}

and OreDictionary:

	OreDictionary.registerOre("cm_cutterGlass", new ItemStack(ModItems.CUTTER_GLASS_DIAMOND, 1, OreDictionary.WILDCARD_VALUE));
        OreDictionary.registerOre("cm_cutterGlass", new ItemStack(ModItems.CUTTER_GLASS_GOLD, 1, OreDictionary.WILDCARD_VALUE));
        OreDictionary.registerOre("cm_cutterGlass", new ItemStack(ModItems.CUTTER_GLASS_IRON, 1, OreDictionary.WILDCARD_VALUE));

And Yet, i can use my Glass cutter once before it stops working

You don’t need to use the ore dict for this, you can just specify the data as 32,767 (the vanilla wildcard value)

Problem is i want to shorten the amount of recipes i have to make. Im making a rainbow character mod, 26 letters, 17 colors, 3 tools. 26*17*3=1326. I am NOT making 1K recipes. 442 is enough

Just auto generate them? It’s really not hard.

[DiamondMiner88]

How? And is there a way to do it like i tried to do?

I looked at tutorials and they showed it like i did.

I don't see how using 32,767 increases the recipe amount by x3. Use a new constant with multiple ingredients.

 

And yeah, you can auto-generate recipes just fine using pretty much anything. I personally used C# for a very simple script that generates recipes with varying ingredients, but you can do the same in any programming(or scripting) language, you don't even need JSON support(although it is preferrable)

What i want to do is register my three Items (Glass Cutters) to a single string value in the OreDictionary or whatever its called so that i don't have to make

recipes.

I can divide that number by 3 by using the OreDictionary.

But i am working on a script right now if the OreDictionary doesn't work out. (Also for the blockstates and item models too lol)

I use Java so that I can generate everything dynamically based on what’s in the Forge registries.

Do you know if constants are still in 1.13? If not, i would rather make recipes for each one.

[Cadiboo]

OreDictionary was entirely replaced by the vanilla Tag system in 1.13

[DiamondMiner88]

Are constants and the OreDictionary not the same?

[V0idWa1k3r]

Constants are just custom ingredients you can use in your recipes that are defined within the _constants file. They have as much to do with the OreDictionary/tags as your recipes - they can use them but that's about it.

[DiamondMiner88]

If i have several ingredients in a constant, any of them can be used for the crafting item, right?

EDIT: Nvm used constants for result item, changed to actual items.
