i have an item obtained from

player.inventory.getStackInSlot(i).getItem();

 

I was expecting to just be able to compare it as

item == Items.DIRT

However, it appears items does not contain any blocks, and you cannot compare it to the Blocks enum.

How would i go about seeing if the item in question was a dirt block?

 

Edit: forgot to mention, forge for 1.12.2

mark as solved

Check if it's an ItemBlock. If it is, cast to ItemBlock and call the getBlock() method to get the block.
