Confused since 1.15.2

[DPaulModz]

Hello, I have run into a small problem. The FORGE documentary points to this function in the Item class: setHasSubtypes(boolean) , ...but I can't find it in the new 1.15.2 FORGE, even though I have the newest mapping. Has the name changed, or has it been totally removed? Plz help.

Hi 

 

Some general advice from a guru

Cross-referencing, a quick how-to

Oh no! Method FooClass.BarMethod disappeared in 1.13/1.14! Where did it go? Follow these easy steps for a guaranteed 80% success rate!

• Open a 1.12 workspace (this is why you use a separate workspace to update, by the way)
• Browse to FooClass.BarMethod
• Use your IDE's find usages tool to see where it was called from in vanilla
• Pick a call site
• Go to that same call site in 1.13/1.14
• What does it call instead?
• 
• Profit

 

But actually the specific answer to your question is that item sub-types don't exist any more.  Each sub-type is now a completely separate Item instance.

That page I linked to talks about it further.

 

If you want to see a working example of how Items with sub-types work now, you might find this useful
