Variable Types
Link to variable-types
As you surely already messed a bit with variables and values, you must've wondered, how CraftTweaker knows whether it's dealing with an Integer, an Item or an oreDic entry?
The easiest way of declaring a variable is using var name = value;
. This creates the variable and casts it to the value it thinks is most fitting for the situation.
Casting a variable to a specific type
Link to casting-a-variable-to-a-specific-type
More complex scripts might require you to cast a variable as a specific type. For example, this would fail:
ZenScript Copyvar test;
test = <minecraft:dirt>;
recipes.remove(test);
So why does this fail? This is because CT casts variables that aren't given a start value to the IAny Type. That type was made to facilitate some recipe handlers, though never really implemented, so it sometimes does more harm than good. It was originally intended as a type that can take the form of most other types so you don't need to change variables all the time, but the interface never got implemented.
Back to the topic: How can we fix this issue? By casting the variable test to IItemStack
, which is the type used for items. Unfortunately, some types need to be imported first, and this is one of those.
ZenScript Copyimport crafttweaker.item.IItemStack;
var test as IItemStack;
test = <minecraft:dirt>;
recipes.remove(test);
List of Variable Types

Here's an (incomplete) List of most variable types
Name (Name in CT) | Erklärung | Beispiel | Import |
---|---|---|---|
Name (Name in CT) Integer (int) | Erklärung Integers are whole Numbers (e.g. 1,2,3,...), caps at 2 147 483 647 | Beispiel var test = 10 as int; | Import |
Name (Name in CT) IItemStack | Erklärung Single items | Beispiel var test = <minecraft:dirt> as IItemStack; | Import import crafttweaker.item.IItemStack; |
Name (Name in CT) IIngredient | Erklärung Single or Multiple Items (e.g. <minecraft:dirt> , <ore:ingotIron> ,...) | Beispiel var test = <minecraft:dirt> as IIngredient; | Import import crafttweaker.item.IIngredient; |
Name (Name in CT) IOreDictEntry | Erklärung Multiple Items from an OreDict (e.g. <ore:ingotIron> , <ore:ingotGold> ,...) | Beispiel var test = <ore:ingotIron> as IOreDictEntry; | Import import crafttweaker.oredict.IOreDictEntry |
Name (Name in CT) Boolean (bool) | Erklärung Booleans are either true or false. | Beispiel var test = false as bool; | Import |
Name (Name in CT) Byte (byte) | Erklärung Bytes values are whole numbers from 0 to 255 () | Beispiel var test = 125 as byte; | Import |
Name (Name in CT) Floating Point (float) | Erklärung Decimals | Beispiel var test = 1.25 as float; | Import |
Name (Name in CT) Double Precision (double) | Erklärung Like Floating Points, just more precise and with a higher number range | Beispiel var test = 1.25 as double; | Import |
Name (Name in CT) Long (long) | Erklärung Like Integer, but with a higher number range (usually int is just fine) | Beispiel var test = 30 as long; | Import |
Name (Name in CT) Null (null) | Erklärung Null, nothing, nada. Not really a type but still useful | Beispiel var test = null; | Import |
Name (Name in CT) Short (short) | Erklärung Like Integer, but with a smaller number Range | Beispiel var test = 16 as short; | Import |
Name (Name in CT) String (string) | Erklärung A string is a text. Here you usually won't need the "as" as anything in "s is automatically a string. | Beispiel var test = "Hello World!" as string; | Import |
Name (Name in CT) Void (void) | Erklärung Even less than null. You will probably only need the void type when dealing with functions | Beispiel var test as void; | Import |
Name (Name in CT) ILiquidStack | Erklärung Same as IItemStack, only for liquids | Beispiel var test = <liquid:water> as ILiquidStack; | Import import crafttweaker.liquid.ILiquidStack; |
