Hello everyone, I'm new to modding and can't make my content load.

 

What happens is that  anything annotated with @SubscribeEvent doesn't react to events. I tried it with and without @EntityBusSubscriber on the class, tried making the methods static and moving them to other classes, but it doesn't help.

 

Here is the relevant code. (it's in Kotlin but it shouldn't be too hard to read)

@Mod(modid = SimpleFlora.MODID, name = SimpleFlora.NAME, version = SimpleFlora.VERSION, modLanguageAdapter = SimpleFlora.ADAPTER)
@Mod.EventBusSubscriber
object SimpleFlora {
    const val MODID = "simpleflora"
    const val NAME = "Simple Flora"
    const val VERSION = "0.1"

    const val ADAPTER = "net.shadowfacts.forgelin.KotlinAdapter"
    const val SERVER_PROXY = "azmalent.$MODID.proxy.ServerProxy"
    const val CLIENT_PROXY = "azmalent.$MODID.proxy.ClientProxy"

    @Mod.Instance
    lateinit var instance: SimpleFlora

    @SidedProxy(serverSide = SERVER_PROXY, clientSide = CLIENT_PROXY)
    lateinit var proxy: AbstractProxy

    lateinit var config: Configuration
    lateinit var logger: Logger

    @Mod.EventHandler
    fun preInit(event: FMLPreInitializationEvent) {
        logger = event.modLog

        val directory = event.modConfigurationDirectory
        config = Configuration(File(directory.path, "$MODID.cfg"))
        ModConfig.init()

        proxy.preInit(event)
    }

    @Mod.EventHandler
    fun init(event: FMLInitializationEvent) {
        proxy.init(event)
    }

    @Mod.EventHandler
    fun postInit(event: FMLPostInitializationEvent) {
        proxy.postInit(event)
    }

    @SubscribeEvent
    fun registerBlocks(event: RegistryEvent.Register<Block>) {
        SimpleFlora.logger.info("Registering blocks")
        ModBlocks.register(event.registry)
    }

    @SubscribeEvent
    fun registerItems(event: RegistryEvent.Register<Item>) {
        SimpleFlora.logger.info("Registering itemBlocks")
        ModBlocks.registerItemBlocks(event.registry)
    }
}

 

Sorry if I have a silly mistake somewhere, I spent like 4 hours and couldn't find where the problem is. Everything looks identical to the tutorials I used.

Can anybody help me out? Thanks in advance

Registering the class as an event subscriber requires that the event handler methods be static. I don't know how Kotlin defines that, but that's what the problem likely is.

Oh, okay then. It needs a special annotation to create static methods in JVM. Everything works as intended after I added it.

Many thanks
