[1.13.2] Can't find any guide

[Tameet]

I can't find any modding guide that shows how to create custom tool and material for it. Has something changed in this thing with the release of version 1.13.2?

Please don't.

He has no idea what he's doing.

As far as I can tell, its a lot better than previous series (like Loremaster). But I'd be interested in knowing what it is that he does wrong or otherwise poorly explains (I skimmed through the first couple looking to see if I could find any obvious problems).

At least he's doing something x) I got my mod up and running thanks to him

http://jabelarminecraft.blogspot.com/ this seems like a nice blog, don't know how up-to-date it is though, but there are tuts on everything

That’s a great guide, one of the best. However it doesn’t cover basic setup and is for <1.13.2. I’ve got my own tutorials that specifically cover just the setup for 1.13.2 https://cadiboo.github.io/tutorials/1.13.2/forge/.

ItemTiers are very similar to the ToolMaterials from <=1.12.2. The main difference is that you no longer need hacks with EnumHelper to add one. Here’s an example of ItemTiers https://github.com/Krevik/Kathairis/blob/master/src/main/java/io/github/krevik/kathairis/init/ModItemTiers.java.

Mostly he comes to the Forge discord, asks strange questions that make no sense and show that he has no clue. Then he makes questionably helpful Youtube "tutorials" (read: "just do this"-videos) about what he "learned".

Ahh, I see now.

What's the purpose of LazyLoadBase? I read its code but I don't understand how it's better than directly using Supplier<T>

[V0idWa1k3r]

A supplier would just give you a thing every time you asked it for one. In most cases it would be a new instance of said thing.

A LazyWhatever would work in this way when asked for a thing - it would check if it has initialized it, if not it would do so, and then return the thing stored in it, thus only initializing/evaluating it once. Lazy is usually used for expensive operations that should only be done once.
