I am making a mod which adds a few new ores. Some ores generate in the overworld and some in the nether the way I want it.

But now I want to generate ores in the end (replace endstone). What is the easiest and most uncomplicated method to do this?

I am new to forge modding and dont know very much about forge and java.

Thanks for Help!

 

EDIT: The ore now generates in the end! Thanks!

Add a configurated feature in the biome (probably an OreFeature if generated in clusters) with your own FillerBlockType created using FillerBlockType#create. If you're generating clusters of one, use ReplaceBlockFeature where you only need to provide a blockstate of the target and new state. Remember to call these methods within a DeferredWorkQueue within your FMLCommonSetupEvent as they are not thread-safe.

But now I have another question about this:

What is a DeferredWorkQueue or DefferedRegister? My Mod works without this.

I am using the IForgeRegistry from the item register event to register my items (If I understand my own code right). Here is the code:

package maxi.ores_cores.init;

import maxi.ores_cores.OresCores;
import maxi.ores_cores.items.*;
import net.minecraft.item.Item;
import net.minecraftforge.event.RegistryEvent.Register;
import net.minecraftforge.eventbus.api.SubscribeEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.Mod.EventBusSubscriber;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.Mod.EventBusSubscriber.Bus;
import net.minecraftforge.registries.IForgeRegistry;

@EventBusSubscriber(modid = OresCores.MODID, bus = Bus.MOD)
public class RegisterItems {
	
	public static final EmoulriteIngotItem EMOULRITE_INGOT = new EmoulriteIngotItem();
	public static final EmoulriteFragmentItem EMOULRITE_FRAGMENT = new EmoulriteFragmentItem();
	public static final TeleriteIngotItem TELERITE_INGOT = new TeleriteIngotItem();

	@SubscribeEvent
	public static void registerItem(Register<Item> event) {
		final IForgeRegistry<Item> registry = event.getRegistry();
		registry.register(EMOULRITE_INGOT.setRegistryName(OresCores.MODID, "emoulrite_ingot"));
		registry.register(EMOULRITE_FRAGMENT.setRegistryName(OresCores.MODID, "emoulrite_fragment"));
		registry.register(TELERITE_INGOT.setRegistryName(OresCores.MODID, "telerite_ingot"));
	}
}

Because I am new my code isnt very good I think. I want to learn much more about java and forge to write better code and create better mods.

And here is the code for the ore gen for my end ore:

package maxi.ores_cores.world.gen;

import maxi.ores_cores.init.RegisterBlocks;
import net.minecraft.block.Blocks;
import net.minecraft.block.pattern.BlockMatcher;
import net.minecraft.world.biome.Biome;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.GenerationStage;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.feature.Feature;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.feature.OreFeatureConfig;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.placement.ConfiguredPlacement;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.placement.CountRangeConfig;
import net.minecraft.world.gen.placement.Placement;
import net.minecraftforge.registries.ForgeRegistries;

public class TeleriteOreGen {
	
	public static void generateOre() {
		for(Biome biome : ForgeRegistries.BIOMES) {
			ConfiguredPlacement<CountRangeConfig> genPlacementConfig = Placement.COUNT_RANGE.configure(new CountRangeConfig(1, 0, 0, 256));
			biome.addFeature(GenerationStage.Decoration.UNDERGROUND_ORES, Feature.ORE
					.withConfiguration(new OreFeatureConfig(OreFeatureConfig.FillerBlockType.create("END_STONE", "end_stone", new BlockMatcher(Blocks.END_STONE)), RegisterBlocks.TELERITE_ORE.getDefaultState(), 6))
					.withPlacement(genPlacementConfig));
		}
	}

}

package maxi.ores_cores.init;

import maxi.ores_cores.OresCores;
import maxi.ores_cores.world.gen.*;
import net.minecraftforge.eventbus.api.SubscribeEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.Mod.EventBusSubscriber;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.Mod.EventBusSubscriber.Bus;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.event.lifecycle.FMLLoadCompleteEvent;

@EventBusSubscriber(modid = OresCores.MODID, bus = Bus.MOD)
public class RegisterWorldGen {

	@SubscribeEvent
	public static void registerWorldGen(FMLLoadCompleteEvent event) { //Should I use FMLCommonSetupEvent instead of FMLLoadCompleteEvent?
		EmoulriteOreGen.generateOre();
		TeleriteOreGen.generateOre();
	}
	
}

Is this code bad? It works, but I dont know if this is the best way.

Sorry for asking, but how I use DeferredWorkQueue?

Is this right? My IDE marks all as warnings because DeferredWorkQueue is deprecated. Should I just use @SuppressWarnings("deprecation")?

package maxi.ores_cores.init;

import maxi.ores_cores.OresCores;
import maxi.ores_cores.world.gen.*;
import net.minecraftforge.eventbus.api.SubscribeEvent;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.DeferredWorkQueue;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.Mod.EventBusSubscriber;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.common.Mod.EventBusSubscriber.Bus;
import net.minecraftforge.fml.event.lifecycle.FMLCommonSetupEvent;

@EventBusSubscriber(modid = OresCores.MODID, bus = Bus.MOD)
public class RegisterWorldGen {

	@SubscribeEvent
	public static void registerWorldGen(FMLCommonSetupEvent event) {
		DeferredWorkQueue.runLater(new Runnable() {
			@Override
			public void run() {
				
				EmoulriteOreGen.generateOre();
				TeleriteOreGen.generateOre();
				
			}
		});
	}
	
}
