[MrNoodles75]

I want to make advancements so wen you hold a block then you get one (or more) recipes.

how do you do this?

Step 1: Create a json file with the correct syntax

Step 2: Place it in the data/<modid>/advancements/recipes directory (the "recipes" is organizational, not functional)

 

You will notice, as part of step 1, that there are criteria, requirements, and rewards sections. Criteria will be how you define the player acquiring a block (this is the initial pickup event).* Requirements is a list of criteria and a boolean operation ("some of" "all of" etc). Rewards will be a list of objects that the player gets as a reward, of which recipes are one possibility.

 

Look at vanilla advancements for examples. They can be found in the client-extra.jar external library.

 

*If you want the player to be holding it in their main hand for it to trigger, you will need to create your own criterion, which is not that difficult, assuming you can hook into the right event.
