Hi

 

I have this block which can only be placed on logs, which is fine. But it is a TileEntity which has a function that makes a value in it go up over time, I have a simple boolean value whenever it can do that or not. But due to the nature of the block, I would for that boolean value only change to true when the log it is attached is actually a tree log. I don't want the player to just build a wall of logs and then spamming my block on it, at least make it a little harder.

So if there is a way to check whenever a block (a wood log in this case) has been placed by a tree growing and not placed by some other way such as the player or part of a village house.

 

 

I would like to add colour to the tooltip of my item to accommodate people with dyslexia to recognize an element better inside my ore block by-product better. I have an enum of colour codes corresponding to my ores, so checking that is simple, but having it change colour is the problem.

 

My current code for the tooltip:

if (flagIn.isAdvanced()) {
    for (ElementComposition element : this.composition)
        tooltip.add(new TranslationTextComponent("tooltip.intercraftcore.composition",element.getSymbol(true),element.getPercentage()*100));
}

 

 

When I tried a simple test to just change the colour I crashed when hovering over the item:

tooltip.add(new TranslationTextComponent(I18n.format("tooltip.intercraftcore.composition", TextFormatting.AQUA, TextFormatting.RESET),element.getSymbol(true),element.getPercentage()*100));

net.minecraft.util.text.TranslationTextComponentFormatException: Error parsing: TranslatableComponent{key=': %', args=[Cu, 95.0], siblings=[], style=Style{hasParent=false, color=null, bold=null, italic=null, underlined=null, obfuscated=null, clickEvent=null, hoverEvent=null, insertion=null}}: Unsupported format: '%'

No.

There are methods on the TextComponent class that allow you to add formatting. Don't bake it into lang file.

Use ITextComponent#getStyle to set the formatting and colors for text.

Alright, got it to change to the vanilla hardcoded colours, but how would I change it to my own custom colour codes? Such as 0xc1810a?

 

TranslationTextComponent text = new TranslationTextComponent("tooltip.intercraftcore.composition",element.getSymbol(true),element.getPercentage()*100);

text.getStyle().setColor(...);

tooltip.add(text);
