I'm trying to make a block that has interactions triggered by being moved by a piston. I don't suppose anyone would know offhand from previous experience the series of functions called when a piston moves blocks? I'm trying to figure it out myself, but it's taking time and I thought if someone already knows, why not ask?

I don't have any actual experience with this, but I do have a few ideas. First, when dealing with something from Minecraft itself like this, look at the source code. The second thing is that I know the way pistons work is they basically "deconstruct" the block, turn it into an entity so that it can move, and then "reconstructs" it where it ends up. I have a suspicion that either the block's rendering is turned off or it is actually destroyed before the movement is done. Try adding println() statements to figure out what events are being triggered or if the block may be getting recreated (which feels excessive and isn't that likely.)

I make games, minecraft mods/plugins, and some graphic art.

Thanks! I'm really just looking for a Block-side function that I can modify to act as a trigger for actions, preferably with an indication of which direction the block is traveling in. I've tried looking at the code, but I'm afraid some of it is rather hard to follow.

      Custom Model Block Rotation

      By iker. · Posted

      Hello, I'm working on my first Minecraft 1.20.2 mod. However, I've created a custom block model and everything works perfectly except the rotation of the block. The code is implemented but it still doesnt work. Need help. This is the code of the object class. import net.minecraft.core.BlockPos; import net.minecraft.world.item.context.BlockPlaceContext; import net.minecraft.world.level.BlockGetter; import net.minecraft.world.level.block.Block; import net.minecraft.world.level.block.HorizontalDirectionalBlock; import net.minecraft.world.level.block.state.BlockState; import net.minecraft.world.level.block.state.StateDefinition; import net.minecraft.world.level.block.state.properties.BlockStateProperties; import net.minecraft.world.level.block.state.properties.DirectionProperty; import net.minecraft.world.phys.shapes.CollisionContext; import net.minecraft.world.phys.shapes.VoxelShape; import net.minecraft.world.level.block.Rotation; import net.minecraft.world.level.block.Mirror; public class DirtyRock extends HorizontalDirectionalBlock { public static final DirectionProperty FACING = BlockStateProperties.HORIZONTAL_FACING; public static final VoxelShape SHAPE = Block.box(4, 0, 4, 12, 2, 11); public DirtyRock(Properties pProperties) { super(pProperties); } @Override public VoxelShape getShape(BlockState pState, BlockGetter pLevel, BlockPos pPos, CollisionContext pContext) { return SHAPE; } @Override public BlockState getStateForPlacement(BlockPlaceContext pContext) { return this.defaultBlockState().setValue(FACING, pContext.getHorizontalDirection().getOpposite()); } @Override public BlockState rotate(BlockState pState, Rotation pRot) { return pState.setValue(FACING, pRot.rotate(pState.getValue(FACING))); } @Override public BlockState mirror(BlockState pState, Mirror pMirror) { return pState.rotate(pMirror.getRotation(pState.getValue(FACING))); } @Override protected void createBlockStateDefinition(StateDefinition.Builder<Block, BlockState> pBuilder) { pBuilder.add(FACING); } } In the ModBlocks class the block is registred like this public static final RegistryObject<Block> DIRTY_ROCK=registerBlock("dirty_rock", ()-> new DirtyRock(BlockBehaviour.Properties.copy(Blocks.STONE_BUTTON))); private static <T extends Block>RegistryObject<T> registerBlock(String name, Supplier<T> block){ RegistryObject<T> toReturn=BLOCKS.register(name,block); registerBlockItem(name,toReturn); return toReturn; } In the Data, ModBlockStateProvider the blockstate is implemened simpleBlock(ModBlocks.DIRTY_ROCK.get(), new ModelFile.UncheckedModelFile(modLoc("block/dirty_rock"))); And in resources/assets/modname/models/block dirty_rock.json is implemented { "credit": "Made with Blockbench", "textures": { "0": "wildandhunt:block/dirty_bricks_block", "particle": "wildandhunt:block/dirty_bricks_block" }, "elements": [ { "from": [5, 0, 4], "to": [9, 1, 8], "rotation": {"angle": 22.5, "axis": "y", "origin": [10, 0, 7]}, "faces": { "north": {"uv": [5, 4, 10, 5], "texture": "#0"}, "east": {"uv": [5, 5, 10, 6], "texture": "#0"}, "south": {"uv": [5, 6, 10, 7], "texture": "#0"}, "west": {"uv": [5, 7, 10, 8], "texture": "#0"}, "up": {"uv": [5, 5, 0, 0], "texture": "#0"}, "down": {"uv": [5, 5, 0, 10], "texture": "#0"} } }, { "from": [9, 0, 4.05], "to": [11, 2, 6.05], "rotation": {"angle": 22.5, "axis": "y", "origin": [8, 0, 9]}, "faces": { "north": {"uv": [5, 4, 10, 5], "texture": "#0"}, "east": {"uv": [5, 5, 10, 6], "texture": "#0"}, "south": {"uv": [5, 6, 10, 7], "texture": "#0"}, "west": {"uv": [5, 7, 10, 8], "texture": "#0"}, "up": {"uv": [5, 5, 0, 0], "texture": "#0"}, "down": {"uv": [5, 5, 0, 10], "texture": "#0"} } }, { "from": [5, 0, 7], "to": [6, 1, 8], "rotation": {"angle": 22.5, "axis": "y", "origin": [10, 0, 10]}, "faces": { "north": {"uv": [5, 4, 10, 5], "texture": "#0"}, "east": {"uv": [5, 5, 10, 6], "texture": "#0"}, "south": {"uv": [5, 6, 10, 7], "texture": "#0"}, "west": {"uv": [5, 7, 10, 8], "texture": "#0"}, "up": {"uv": [5, 5, 0, 0], "texture": "#0"}, "down": {"uv": [5, 5, 0, 10], "texture": "#0"} } }, { "from": [10, 0, 8], "to": [12, 1, 9], "rotation": {"angle": 22.5, "axis": "y", "origin": [15, 0, 11]}, "faces": { "north": {"uv": [5, 4, 10, 5], "texture": "#0"}, "east": {"uv": [5, 5, 10, 6], "texture": "#0"}, "south": {"uv": [5, 6, 10, 7], "texture": "#0"}, "west": {"uv": [5, 7, 10, 8], "texture": "#0"}, "up": {"uv": [5, 5, 0, 0], "texture": "#0"}, "down": {"uv": [5, 5, 0, 10], "texture": "#0"} } }, { "from": [9.4, 0, 5], "to": [12.4, 1, 8.5], "rotation": {"angle": 22.5, "axis": "y", "origin": [12, 0, 7]}, "faces": { "north": {"uv": [8, 0, 11, 1], "texture": "#0"}, "east": {"uv": [8, 2, 10, 3], "texture": "#0"}, "south": {"uv": [8, 1, 11, 2], "texture": "#0"}, "west": {"uv": [8, 3, 10, 4], "texture": "#0"}, "up": {"uv": [8, 2, 5, 0], "texture": "#0"}, "down": {"uv": [8, 2, 5, 4], "texture": "#0"} } }, { "from": [6, 1, 6], "to": [10, 1.75, 10], "rotation": {"angle": 22.5, "axis": "y", "origin": [9, 0, 7]}, "faces": { "north": {"uv": [8, 0, 11, 1], "texture": "#0"}, "east": {"uv": [8, 2, 10, 3], "texture": "#0"}, "south": {"uv": [8, 1, 11, 2], "texture": "#0"}, "west": {"uv": [8, 3, 10, 4], "texture": "#0"}, "up": {"uv": [8, 2, 5, 0], "texture": "#0"}, "down": {"uv": [8, 2, 5, 4], "texture": "#0"} } } ], "display": { "thirdperson_righthand": { "translation": [0, 7.75, 0] }, "thirdperson_lefthand": { "translation": [0, 7.75, 0] }, "firstperson_righthand": { "translation": [0, 8.25, 0] }, "firstperson_lefthand": { "translation": [0, 8.25, 0] }, "ground": { "translation": [0, 4, 0] }, "gui": { "rotation": [32, 32, 9], "translation": [-1.25, 6.25, 0], "scale": [1.31, 1.31, 1.31] }, "fixed": { "translation": [0, 6.75, 0] } }, "groups": [ { "name": "dirty_stone", "origin": [8, 0, 7], "color": 0, "children": [0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5] } ] }

      Internal Exception: io.netty.handler.codec.DecoderException: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: -1

      By Type-32 · Posted

      has anyone encountered an issue where they have the same mod installed on client and server but when the client tries to join the server the client disconnects immediately and gives this `Internal Exception: io.netty.handler.codec.DecoderException: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: -1` while the problem exists only when the mod is loaded? Repo: https://github.com/Type-32/PreciseManufacturing/tree/1.20.1 Forge 1.20.1 Mod, logs gives no useful info, but I'm still gonna put it here Server logs: https://pastebin.com/SUBbg0fF No client logs here because when client disconnects it only shows that is has disconnected, and nothing more
