I'm trying to add an ore-duplication block. I have a working container and gui, I just need guidance on creating the recipe type. I looked at the furnace tile entity class, but I can't puzzle out how it works completely with regard to the recipe system. Any help?

Here's the code, if it helps

I'm not sure what's so hard about the recipe json files:

 

https://github.com/Draco18s/ReasonableRealism/blob/1.14.4/src/main/resources/data/harderores/recipes/ores/gold_ingot_from_smelting.json

I understand the JSON fine, I guess I didn’t explain the issue correctly. I’m attempting to make a machine, and I need to add recipes for it. I can’t puzzle how to add a new recipe type or how the recipe classes work, i.e. `IRecipeHolder` and `IRecipe`. I’ve attempted to look at how the furnace achieves this in `AbstractFurnaceTileEntity`, but to no avail.

 

I’m trying to add a new type of recipe.

Creating your own recipe type involves some amount of code. Not too much. I've been able to scrape up a lot of stuff off the web 

and figure out how to create multiple recipe types. 

Big thanks to turtywurty and his source code here https://github.com/DaRealTurtyWurty/1.15-Tut-Mod

 

for your first machine you'll need to create 4 new classes for the custom recipe type.

 

[1] IMachineNameRecipe.java

[2] MachienNameRecipe.java

[3] MachineNameSerializer.java

 

and the most important 

[4] RecipeSerializerInit.java

I say this is the most important because it is here in this file that you register your new recipe types for your different machines. 

You could essentially copy and paste this code and replace the machine names with the what ever your machine class is and it should work.

Just pay special attention to IMillRecipe (IMachineNameRecipe), because you define a path to your recipe json files here. I have it set to mill_recipes so in my directory I see

src/main/resources/data/MODID/recipes/mill_recipes

and the same goes for file RecipeSerializerInit. Under the comment Machine Serializers you'll be able to see a bunch of other machines with their defined paths being defined as they're being registered.

Last but not least,

you have to be able to tell your tile entity where to go look for these recipes so I've attached a copy of my Mill TileEntity so you can 

see what functions it calls when it crushes items. *hint look at the tick function

 

This is the best I can explain it. Good Luck
