Setting 1 Id For Multiple Blocks


artdude543

Recommended Posts

Hello :)

 

Im making a mod which adds decorated blocks and im wondering how i set 1 id for a range of the same block. Like on BOP they have there planks "1947" for the first block then after the others are "1947:{number}" how do I set this sub id (I think thats what its called) I have my config files set up and have a default id for the first one but need some help on how to add the code to add the ":" then the id so I don't take up a load of ID for no reason.

 

Any help would be appreciated also if you need some more information please ask for it :)

 

Thanks

Hey there,

 

what you're asking for is already in miencraft and it's called "metadata", kinda like how trees have different wood but they all have id 17 (same goes for wool, they all have the same id but their color is based on their metadata)  just remember that metadata is only 16 possible number (0-15) so if you have more then 15 blocks, you WILL need to use more then 1 ID. btw, dont be afraid to use multiple id. if you have config files peopel can always change it in case there is a conflict.

well metadata is already implemented in-game, like i said, wool wood, stair, plants (flower?) already have it.

 

basicly metadata is an extra information about the block, can be its color (wool) its direction (chest/furnace) can be its type ( wood )   

 

what youll want to do is look around the method world.setBlockWithMetadata, Block.getSubBlocks  etc, if you just go in the Block and World class ctrl+f for "meta" you should find what you're looking for

 

also, if you're using ecilpse, use rightclick+open call hierarchi. this help a TON

 

but honestly dont be afraid to use multiple completely different block, use "subblocks" or metadata only if like you're making a blue firepit and red firepit, these would be pretty much the same. If you're doing like a statue and a teapot, use different ID please.

This tutorial should help out.

Yeah but it's not because it's possible to do it that you should do it

 

like implementing TileEntitySpecialRenderer and a TileEntity for a block that can easily be rendered by ISimpleblockRenderHandle (or wtv its called)

 

good practice makes good code :)

Could you explain what you have done so far, what you dont understand, what you DO understand and what you're trying to accomplish.

 

saying "i dont get it" doesnt help us understand whats going on

Okay,  here is a link to the source of the mod: https://github.com/DiamentiumUK/BlocksNMore/tree/Dev

 

What im trying to do is have my first block "CheckeredPlanks" and have 4 versions of that block but with different textures. But to have all the same properties as the each other. I am going to make a few blocks which have variant versions but hence wanting to learn how to use "metadata" to save on ids

 

Does that explain enough?

I have looked around on the net and got MetaData working but there is an issue when I place the blocks in game there not getting the right texture only the default "Meta" blocks one, you can see them in the GUI. Also when breaking the blocks the default block is the one which is being dropped. :/ Have I got a buggy code or done something wrong?

You don't have an onBlockPlaced or onBlockAddedToWorld function to set the block's metadata.

I never saw that function on the tutorials I watched :/ Is there an example showing those functions? The wiki one does not show that function either.

 

One of the two of them (onAddedToWorld, I think) returns an int.  This returned int is the block's metadata.

 

You should really look at blocks in vanilla that already use the desired behavior.

You need registerIcons(), getIcon(side, meta), damageDropped(meta), and getSubBlocks(id, tabs, list). Here's a class I use for sub-blocks.

 

package sbfp;

import java.util.List;

import net.minecraft.block.material.Material;
import net.minecraft.client.renderer.texture.IconRegister;
import net.minecraft.creativetab.CreativeTabs;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;
import net.minecraft.util.Icon;
import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.Side;
import cpw.mods.fml.relauncher.SideOnly;

public abstract class BlockSub extends BlockSB{

public Icon[] icons;
public final String[] names;

public BlockSub(int id, Material material, String[] names){
	super(id,material,names[0]);
	this.names = names;
}

@Override
@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
public void registerIcons(IconRegister register){
	icons = new Icon[names.length];
	for(int i = 0; i<names.length; i++){
		icons[i] = register.registerIcon("sbfp:"+this.names[i]);
	}
}

@Override
@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
public Icon getIcon(int side, int meta){
	return icons[meta];
}

@Override
public int damageDropped(int meta){
	return meta;
}

@Override
public void getSubBlocks(int id, CreativeTabs tabs, List list){
	for(int i = 0; i<names.length; ++i){
		list.add(new ItemStack(id,1,i));
	}
}
}

50% laziness 50% i didn't expect it to be that many changes my mod also does some small dirty vanilla modification ..... *shame on me*  so i tend not to switch version too often. plus i heard that the texture thigny was changed in 1.5+ so i though i was good for a while.

 

thanks  ^^

Oh, and you will also need an ItemBlock class like so:

 

package sbfp.world;

import net.minecraft.item.ItemBlock;
import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;
import sbfp.modsbfp;

public class ItemBlockOre extends ItemBlock{

public ItemBlockOre(int id){
	super(id);
	this.setHasSubtypes(true);
}

@Override
public int getMetadata(int damage){
	return damage;
}

@Override
public String getUnlocalizedName(ItemStack is){
	return modsbfp.blockOre.names[is.getItemDamage()];
}
}

    • I'm developing a dimension, but it's kinda resource intensive so some times during player teleporting it lags behind making the player phase down into the void, so im trying to implement some kind of pregeneration to force the game loading a small set of chunks in the are the player will teleport to. Some of the things i've tried like using ServerLevel and ServerChunkCache methods like getChunk() dont actually trigger chunk generation if the chunk isn't already on persistent storage (already generated) or placing tickets, but that doesn't work either. Ideally i should be able to check when the task has ended too. I've peeked around some pregen engines, but they're too complex for my current understanding of the system of which I have just a basic understanding (how ServerLevel ,ServerChunkCache  and ChunkMap work) of. Any tips or other classes I should be looking into to understand how to do this correctly?

    • Way back in the Forge 1.17 days, work started for adding JPMS (Java Platform Module Support) to ModLauncher and ForgeModLoader. This has been used internally by Forge and some libraries for a while now, but mods (those with mods.toml specifically) have not been able to take advantage of it. As of Forge 1.21.1 and 1.21.3, this is now possible!   What is JPMS and what does it mean for modders? JPMS is the Java Platform Module System, introduced in Java 9. It allows you to define modules, which are collections of packages and resources that can be exported or hidden from other modules. This allows for much more fine-tuned control over visibility, cleaner syntax for service declarations and support for sealed types across packages. For example, you might have a mod with a module called `com.example.mod` that exports `com.example.mod.api` and `com.example.mod.impl` to other mods, but hides `com.example.mod.internal` from them. This would allow you to have a clean API for other mods to use, while keeping your internal implementation details hidden from IDE hints, helping prevent accidental usage of internals that might break without prior notice. This is particularly useful if you'd like to use public records with module-private constructors or partially module-private record components, as you can create a sealed interface that only your record implements, having the interface be exported and the record hidden. It's also nice for declaring and using services, as you'll get compile-time errors from the Java compiler for typos and the like, rather than deferring to runtime errors. In more advanced cases, you can also have public methods that are only accessible to specific other modules -- handy if you want internal interactions between multiple of your own mods.   How do I bypass it? We understand there may be drama in implementing a system that prevents mods from accessing each other's internals when necessary (like when a mod is abandoned or you need to fix a compat issue) -- after all, we are already modding a game that doesn't have explicit support for Java mods yet. We have already thought of this and are offering APIs from day one to selectively bypass module restrictions. Let me be clear: Forge mods are not required to use JPMS. If you don't want to use it, you don't have to. The default behaviour is to have fully open, fully exported automatic modules. In Java, you can use the `Add-Opens` and `Add-Exports` manifest attributes to selectively bypass module restrictions of other mods at launch time, and we've added explicit support for these when loading your Forge mods. At compile-time, you can use existing solutions such as the extra-java-module-info Gradle plugin to deal with non-modular dependencies and add extra opens and exports to other modules. Here's an example on how to make the internal package `com.example.examplemod.internal` open to your mod in your build.gradle: tasks.named('jar', Jar) { manifest { attributes([ 'Add-Opens' : 'com.example.examplemod/com.example.examplemod.internal' 'Specification-Title' : mod_id, 'Specification-Vendor' : mod_authors // (...) ]) } } With the above in your mod's jar manifest, you can now reflectively access the classes inside that internal package. Multiple entries are separated with a space, as per Java's official spec. You can also use Add-Exports to directly call without reflection, however you'd need to use the Gradle plugin mentioned earlier to be able to compile. The syntax for Add-Exports is the same as Add-Opens, and instructions for the compile-time step with the Gradle plugin are detailed later in this post. Remember to prefer the opens and exports keywords inside module-info.java for sources you control. The Add-Opens/Add-Exports attributes are only intended for forcing open other mods.   What else is new with module support? Previously, the runtime module name was always forced to the first mod ID in your `mods.toml` file and all packages were forced fully open and exported. Module names are now distinguished from mod IDs, meaning the module name in your module-info.java can be different from the mod ID in your `mods.toml`. This allows you to have a more descriptive module name that doesn't have to be the same as your mod ID, however we strongly recommend including your mod ID as part of your module name to aid troubleshooting. The `Automatic-Module-Name` manifest attribute is now also honoured, allowing you to specify a module name for your mod without needing to create a `module-info.java` file. This is particularly useful for mods that don't care about JPMS features but want to have a more descriptive module name and easier integration with other mods that do use JPMS.   How do I use it? The first step is to create a `module-info.java` file in your mod's source directory. This file should be in the same package as your main mod class, and should look something like this: open module com.example.examplemod { requires net.minecraftforge.eventbus; requires net.minecraftforge.fmlcore; requires net.minecraftforge.forge; requires net.minecraftforge.javafmlmod; requires net.minecraftforge.mergetool.api; requires org.slf4j; requires logging; } For now, we're leaving the whole module open to reflection, which is a good starting point. When we know we want to close something off, we can remove the open modifier from the module and open or export individual packages instead. Remember that you need to be open to Forge (module name net.minecraftforge.forge), otherwise it can't call your mod's constructor. Next is fixing modules in Gradle. While Forge and Java support modules properly, Gradle does not put automatic modules on the module path by default, meaning that the logging module (from com.mojang:logging) is not found. To fix this, add the Gradle plugin and add a compile-time module definition for that Mojang library: plugins { // (...) id 'org.gradlex.extra-java-module-info' version "1.9" } // (...) extraJavaModuleInfo { failOnMissingModuleInfo = false automaticModule("com.mojang:logging", "logging") } The automatic module override specified in your build.gradle should match the runtime one to avoid errors. You can do the same for any library or mod dependency that is missing either a module-info or explicit Automatic-Module-Name, however be aware that you may need to update your mod once said library adds one. That's all you need to get started with module support in your mods. You can learn more about modules and how to use them at dev.java.
