BlockBuilder

The blockbuilder is used to... build blocks (you totally didn't see that one coming, right... right?).
Once you created it you can set various properties which will be outlined by the separate methods.

This class was added by a mod with mod-id contenttweaker. So you need to have this mod installed if you want to use this feature.

It might be required for you to import the package if you encounter any issues (like casting an Array), so better be safe than sorry and add the import.

mods.contenttweaker.block.BlockBuilder

BlockBuilder implements the following interfaces. That means any method available to them can also be used on this class.

• mods.contenttweaker.api.IIsBuilder

Creates a new BlockBuilder. Remember that this will not create a new block in the game, you need to call mods.contenttweaker.block.BlockBuilder#build(String) for that.

new mods.contenttweaker.block.BlockBuilder(material as crafttweaker.api.block.material.MCMaterial);
new mods.contenttweaker.block.BlockBuilder();
new mods.contenttweaker.block.BlockBuilder(<blockmaterial:earth>);

Instructs CoT to actually build whatever this builder is supposed to be building.

myBlockBuilder.build(resourceLocation as String);
myBlockBuilder.build("my_awesome_block");

Sets the block's hardness and resistance levels. Unlike the other method, this one only accepts one parameter and will use that value for both properties.

Returns: This builder, used for method chaining

Return type: mods.contenttweaker.block.BlockBuilder

myBlockBuilder.withHardnessAndResistance(hardnessAndResistance as float);
myBlockBuilder.withHardnessAndResistance(0.5f);

Sets the block's hardness and resistance levels. Unlike the other method, this one allows you to set each property one to a separate value.

Returns: This builder, used for method chaining

Return type: mods.contenttweaker.block.BlockBuilder

myBlockBuilder.withHardnessAndResistance(hardnessIn as float, resistanceIn as float);
myBlockBuilder.withHardnessAndResistance(0.5f, 0.5f);

Sets the mining level required to mine this block

Returns: This builder, used for method chaining

Return type: mods.contenttweaker.block.BlockBuilder

myBlockBuilder.withHarvestLevel(harvestLevel as int);
myBlockBuilder.withHarvestLevel(3);

Sets the tool required to harvest this block

Returns: This builder, used for method chaining

Return type: mods.contenttweaker.block.BlockBuilder

myBlockBuilder.withHarvestTool(harvestTool as mods.contenttweaker.item.MCToolType);
myBlockBuilder.withHarvestTool(<tooltype:shovel>);

Sets the item group in which this block will appear

Returns: This builder, used for method chaining

Return type: mods.contenttweaker.block.BlockBuilder

myBlockBuilder.withItemGroup(group as mods.contenttweaker.item.MCItemGroup);
myBlockBuilder.withItemGroup(<itemgroup:building_blocks>);

Sets the block's light value.

Returns: This builder, used for method chaining

Return type: mods.contenttweaker.block.BlockBuilder

myBlockBuilder.withLightValue(lightValueIn as int);
myBlockBuilder.withLightValue(15);

Will instruct CoT to override this block's loot table with the one of the block Provided. Currently this will still create a loot table entry, though it will be ignored by the game.

Returns: This builder, used for method chaining

Return type: mods.contenttweaker.block.BlockBuilder

myBlockBuilder.withLootFrom(blockIn as crafttweaker.api.block.MCBlock);
myBlockBuilder.withLootFrom(<block:minecraft:diamond>);

Sets the maximum Stack size that this block can have when in your inventory. Will be 64 if unchanged.

Returns: This builder, used for chaining

Return type: mods.contenttweaker.block.BlockBuilder

myBlockBuilder.withMaxStackSize(size as int);
myBlockBuilder.withMaxStackSize(16);

Allows you to set the rarity of this block.

Returns: This builder, used for method chaining

Return type: mods.contenttweaker.block.BlockBuilder

myBlockBuilder.withRarity(rarity as String);
myBlockBuilder.withRarity("UNCOMMON");

Sets the slipperiness.

Returns: This builder, used for method chaining

Return type: mods.contenttweaker.block.BlockBuilder

myBlockBuilder.withSlipperiness(slipperinessIn as float);
myBlockBuilder.withSlipperiness(0.5f);

Sets the specific type of this block. After this method is called the builder's context will switch to the more provided type builder. That means that the methods of this builder will no longer be available, so any properties you wish to set should be set before you call this method.

Returns: A builder with the given block.

Return type: T

myBlockBuilder.withType<T>();
myBlockBuilder.withType<mods.contenttweaker.block.pillar.BlockBuilderPillarRotatable>();

Will instruct CoT that this block will not have any loot entries. Currently this will still create a loot table entry, though it will be ignored by the game.

Returns: This builder, used for method chaining

Return type: mods.contenttweaker.block.BlockBuilder

myBlockBuilder.withoutDrops();

Instructs CoT that this block will does not block movement.

Returns: This builder, used for chaining

Return type: mods.contenttweaker.block.BlockBuilder

myBlockBuilder.withoutMovementBlocking();
