Posted May 13, 20205 yr Is there a way to create a single class to register similar blocks easily? I'm creating a mod that contains slabs, but making a class file for each one is a very long and tedious task

I'm creating a mod that contains slabs, but making a class file for each one is a very long and tedious task What do you mean by making a class file? Out of interest, are you using DeferredRegisters for this?

Clearly there's some fundamental property of a slab that makes it a slab (probably SlabBlock) and some mere data that differentiates one slab from another. Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable. If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME. Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice. Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked. DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.
May 13, 20205 yr of course you can, and iirc there are only two slabs blocks (half with upper/lower) and a doubled.

The double slab block is just a state. https://minecraft.gamepedia.com/Slab#Block_states 1 minute ago, Tewott said: i mean i always make a new class for each slab properties but i was wondering if there was any way for all the slabs to use the same properties without creating many classes here's an example of a class package com.tewott.graniteworld.blocks; import net.minecraft.block.Block; import net.minecraft.block.SlabBlock; import net.minecraft.block.SoundType; import net.minecraft.block.material.Material; public class green_granite_slab extends SlabBlock { public green_granite_slab() { super(Block.Properties.create(Material.IRON) .sound(SoundType.STONE) .hardnessAndResistance(1.8f) ); setRegistryName("green_granite_slab"); } } Ok, see all that stuff in your constructor?

May 13, 20205 yr Unfortunately it sounds like you were blindly following from one of the (rather terrible) tutorials on YouTube, and therefore do not understand how registering stuff actually works. A class per registry entry is not necessary. All you need is an instance of Block to register a type of block. In this case, you should instantiate an instance of SlabBlock per slab you want, and register these instances. I would also suggest reading the registry page on Forge's Documentation: https://mcforge.readthedocs.io/en/1.15.x/concepts/registries/ Some tips: Spoiler Modder Support: Spoiler 1. Do not follow tutorials on YouTube, especially TechnoVision (previously called Loremaster) and HarryTalks, due to their promotion of bad practice and usage of outdated code. 2. Always post your code. 3. Never copy and paste code. You won't learn anything from doing that. 4. Quote Programming via Eclipse's hotfixes will get you nowhere 5. Learn to use your IDE, especially the debugger. 6. Quote The "picture that's worth 1000 words" only works if there's an obvious problem or a freehand red circle around it. Support & Bug Reports: Spoiler 1. Read the EAQ before asking for help. Remember to provide the appropriate log(s). 2. Versions below 1.11 are no longer supported due to their age. Update to a modern version of Minecraft to receive support.
May 13, 20205 yr Quote Nope, only one. The double slab block is just a state. true, only 1.12- uses two blocks.
