I usually don't ask forums unless I've been stuck for a number of days, and so here I am. I'm new to the modding scene and trying to put together my first mod with basic world gen but I can't get it to work.
INFO: I've followed this and this tutorial about world gen, and I've got it to the point where I can spawn vanilla blocks just fine. I tested and the blocks I added-- Tungsten Block and Tungsten Ore-- work fine and can be placed/mined and whatnot. I made a test with gold blocks spawning underground and that's all fine and dandy, however
PROBLEM: When I attempt to use `RegistryHandler.EXAMPLE_ORE.get(), the game crashes with the message "Registry Object not Present," which according to the registry object code just means that the registry object field is null.
Where I'm confused is at a different point in the code I have the line `...ITEMS.register("example_ore", () -> new BlockItemBase(EXAMPLE_ORE.get()));` which has that same `EXAMPLE_ORE.get()` expression but when I went into the constructor of BlockItemBase and printed what it had passed into it, it displayed it just fine. I tried doing a sysout of the `EXAMPLE_ORE.get()` expression immediately before and after this `...ITEMS.register("example_ore", () -> new BlockItemBase(EXAMPLE_ORE.get()));` line but they both returned null. I was wondering if it was a timing/threading thing 

Here's the git repo, and to make it not crash just replace `RegistryHandler.TUNGSTEN_ORE.get()` on line util.RegistryHandler.java:55 with `Blocks.GOLD_BLOCK`

 

Any help is greatly appreciated. I've been at this for a while heh

BlockItemBase is an antipattern. There is already a base BlockItem class, it is called BlockItem.

Ditto ItemBase. It's called Item.

Welp I fixed it by putting the call in an onBlocksRegistry event. I tried this earlier but it didn't work, but regardless I appreciate the coding style help. I'm no longer using Bases
