Including another mods from in my project in the run config of another mod from the same project

[anothertime]

 

Hi!

I've a single, multiproject setup in IDEA, with, say, ModA and ModB in it, and ModB depend on the code of ModA. It's working fine so far, they only problem is run configurations

 

How do I include ModA in the run config of ModB?

 

I've tried to add a new "mod" unders the mods list of the run config of ModB, like so:

 

runs {
        server {
            workingDirectory runDir

            // Recommended logging data for a userdev environment
            property 'forge.logging.markers', 'SCAN,REGISTRIES,REGISTRYDUMP'

            // Recommended logging level for the console
            property 'forge.logging.console.level', 'debug'

            mods {
                moda {
                    source project(':moda').sourceSets.main
                }
                
                modb {
                    source sourceSets.main
                }
            }
        }

    client {
        //same stuff basically
        }
}

but that project(':moda').sourceSets.main, for some reasons, seems to resolve to the source set of the root project, not the one of the subproject "moda"

 

How do I do that?

thank you!

Are these going to be shipped in the same jar?

[anothertime]

No, they are 2 separate mods

Does simply adding the other mod project as a dependency not add it to the runtime?

[anothertime]

No. I have this as a dependency to allow modB to complie (Idea see the dependency in gradle and set it's project correctly):

 

implementation project(':moda')

 

But the runconfig don't see the dependency and so modA is not added to the mods list when Idea/forgegradle launch modb (and I get an error from FML becase ModB required ModA to be present  and ModA is missing)

 

I've to edit the Idea runconfigs XMLs to manually  add modA to the mods to loads and I'm trying to find a way to add it in the build.gradle file to avoid that manual work every time I upgrade to a new forge version and recreate the run configs

How important is it for them to be in the same project space for you?

[anothertime]

Very important. I use one project for each MC major version and I develop / debug the mods alongside each other
