Help with modding Nether Warts and Gunpowder

[minecraftdotjarrr]

Hey guys!

I'm fairly new to modding, but im making a mod where you can eat the potion items (i.e Glistering Melon) and I manged to give that a potion effect of regeneration for 3 seconds. But my two real questions are...

 

1- How to make nether warts still plant able (on soul sand) but editable all the time so (maybe shift click to plant) lol

2- When you eat gun powder you have ten seconds before you explode!

 

If someone could help man that would be great!!!!!!1

Define "editable".  Do you mean you can eat it?  You can't eat nether wart but you would probably have to make a netherwart class and have it extend ItemFood. If you want to be required to shift click, just say if(par1EntityPlayer.isSneaking) or whatever it is.

 

For the gunpowder you have to make it extend ItemFood, and then you could start a timer lasting for a certain amount of ticks, and then at the end you would stop the timer, do par1World.createExplosion(x,y,z) where x y and z are the coordinates of the player.  Then you would probably have to do .setDead, or maybe it will already do that when you explode.

Example Code [You won't learn anything if you copy paste o_O]

 

1 -

Place the code in (onItemRightClick)

if (par1Player.isSneaking) {
//call method to plant
}
if (!(par1Player.isSneaking)) {
//eat the item
}

 

2 -

//calling a method when u eat the item.
//maybe creating a potioneffect, and when it goes to 00:00, or player.getActivePotionEffect() <-- most effective way, then go to startTimer()
public void startTimer(EntityPlayer player, World par1World) {
if (player.getActivePotionEffect() != null) 
{
//do a loop, or something until the player's potion effect == null
//then:
par1World.createExplosion(player.posX, player.posY, player.posZ);
}
}

look at the potato and/or carrot. those are edible and plantable.

Yes so you can eat it lol

What does extend ItemFood mean? (im sorry im new lol)

And what would I put in the netherwart class?

And where would I put the "if(par1EntityPlayer.isSneaking)" on the the nether wart line? this is what I changed

 

"public static Item netherStalkSeeds = (new ItemSeedFood(136, 1, 0.3F, Block.netherStalk.blockID, Block.slowSand.blockID)).setUnlocalizedName("netherStalkSeeds").setPotionEffect("+4");"

 

and I only put that in my main mod class because I dont know what to put in my nether wart class

number one red flag with modding minecraft: never modify a base class unless necessary.

What do you mean by that?

[endershadow]

I mean, you shouldn't modify existing files when modding unless you made the file. if you want to make your mod correctly, you should use reflection to override the normal minecraft blocks/items.

Are you thinking that I edited the Items.java file and didnt create a modding file? (Class)

I did create a like a new class for this mod 

[endershadow]

no, it sounds like you edited Item.java and possibly other minecraft files.

[ObsequiousNewt]

...At any rate, what you're supposed to do is copy and modify ItemGunpowder, then change Item.itemsList[<gunpowder id>] to an instance of your item.

ya, I'm in contact with him over skype. we're taking care of it
