world.setBlockState() make Minecraft crash

[Miscell]

Hello ! I try in vain to place an oriented block in a specific orientation in a procedure but it makes me crash when calling the procedure.

Here is the line I'm talking about :

world.setBlockState(new BlockPos((int) x, (int) (y + 1), (int) z), mcreator_secondBlock.block.getStateFromMeta(1));

And this is the error :

Cannot set property PropertyDirection{name=facing, clazz=class net.minecraft.util.EnumFacing, values=[north, south, west, east]} to up on block earthcraft:secondblock, it is not an allowed value

 

I hope that someone could help me ..

(I know, I use MCreator .. but I'm new to modding but not to Java (so it's a good way to understand the structure of Minecraft and Modding).

1. Stop using MCreator. It is bad and you should feel bad for using it.
2. Stop using getStateFromMeta directly. IBlockStates exist so you don't have to deal in magic numbers. someBlock.getDefaultState().withProperty(FACING, EnumFacing.NORTH)
3. Your block does not support a facing direction, but you are trying to set it.

Why MCreator sucks.

No.

Minecraft modding is programming in Java.

 

As for your problem, you are setting a property of your block which your block does not have. This will cause a crash.
