I have created a TileEntity block that places like a normal block. Now I wanted to make it rotate-able like the dispenser so I looked into the dispenser code and created this.

Spoiler

public class CaskBlock extends Block {

    public static final DirectionProperty FACING = DirectionalBlock.FACING;

    public CaskBlock(Block.Properties properties) {
        super(properties);
        this.setDefaultState(this.stateContainer.getBaseState().with(FACING, Direction.UP));
    }

    @Override
    public BlockRenderLayer getRenderLayer() {
        return BlockRenderLayer.CUTOUT;
    }

    @Nullable
    @Override
    public BlockState getStateForPlacement(BlockItemUseContext context) {
        return this.getDefaultState().with(FACING, context.getNearestLookingDirection().getOpposite());
    }

    @Override
    public BlockState rotate(BlockState state, IWorld world, BlockPos pos, Rotation direction) {
        return state.with(FACING, direction.rotate(state.get(FACING)));
    }

    @Override
    public BlockState mirror(BlockState state, Mirror mirrorIn) {
        return state.rotate(mirrorIn.toRotation(state.get(FACING)));
    }

    @Override
    public boolean hasTileEntity(BlockState state) {
        return true;
    }

    @Nullable
    @Override
    public TileEntity createTileEntity(BlockState state, IBlockReader world) {
        return ModTileEntityTypes.CASK.create();
    }

    @Override
    public boolean onBlockActivated(BlockState state, World worldIn, BlockPos pos, PlayerEntity player, Hand handIn, BlockRayTraceResult hit) {

        if (worldIn.isRemote) return true;
        if (!(worldIn.getTileEntity(pos) instanceof CaskTileEntity)) return false;

        LazyOptional<IFluidHandler> handler = worldIn.getTileEntity(pos).getCapability(CapabilityFluidHandler.FLUID_HANDLER_CAPABILITY, hit.getFace());
        handler.ifPresent(tank -> {
            FluidUtil.interactWithFluidHandler(player, handIn, worldIn, pos, hit.getFace());
        });

        return true;
    }
}

 

When I try to load the game I get the following error:

I understand that "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Cannot set property DirectionProperty{name=facing, clazz=class net.minecraft.util.Direction, values=[north, east, south, west, up, down]} as it does not exist in Block{null}" this says what is wrong and that it cannot set the property because it doesn't exist, but I don't know how to fix this. Help would be appreciated.

You haven't set up the state container.

https://github.com/Draco18s/ReasonableRealism/blob/1.14.4/src/main/java/com/draco18s/harderores/block/WindvaneBlock.java#L33-L36

Also, show where you create and register your blocks

Thanks, now it works.

Looks good. Just wanted to make sure there wasn't anything there that might've been a problem too.

Okay thanks for checking.
