Errors with creating a block.

[Nieue]

Hello, I've created a mod and wanted to add my first block in it.

But when I create this code:

public final static Block AmethystBlock = new AmethystBlock(6543).setHardness(5.0F).setResistance(10.0F).setUnlocalizedName("amethystblock").setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock);

It gives me errors that are weird:

At my "public static CommonProxy Proxy;" it gives the error "Syntax errors on tokens, delete these tokens"

And at my "public void load(FMLInitializationEvent event){" it gives 3 errors:

- Syntax error on token "void", @ expected

- Syntax error(s) on token(s), misplaced construct(s)

- Syntax error, insert "enum Identifier" to complete EnumHeader

 

Can someone help me please?

We can't until we see the full class...

Rather than doing it that way, which doesn't allow for a config file to change the block ID, do it the "correct" way.

 

That and don't name your variable the same as your class name.  It confuses things.

 

public static Block amethystBlock;
...
@PreInit
public void preInit(FMLInitializationEvent event) {
Configuration config = new Configuration(event.getSuggestedConfigurationFile());
config.load();
int amethystID = config.getBlock("Amethyst", 6543).getInt();

amethystBlock = new AmethystBlock(amethystID).setHardness(5.0F).setResistance(10.0F).setUnlocalizedName("amethystblock").setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock);
}

 

Which might not solve your problem, as the error might be elsewhere.

 

Also, block IDs cap at 4095.  6543 is an item ID.

Why is there a bracket? You close the class definition here...

OMG that was it? Thanks, now it works again

If I copy that, I get an extra error with the ".getSuggestedConfigurationFile()"

And there are 2 quick fixes, but I don't know if they help correctly:

1. Create method 'getSuggestedConfigurationFile()' in type 'FMLInitializationEvent'

2. Add cast to 'event'

 

What version of Minecraft are you compiling for?

Did you do the correct imports?

Well.  I'm on 1.5.1 as well.

So it should have worked.
