Blocks

Class: UnifiedRegistries.Blocks

Blocks are registered normally, as you'd expect. Note that block registries return a Supplied Block.

INFO

Unified API also adds an extra block registry method to allow you bind your custom block to an existing block entity in a multiloader-friendly manner, as per the example. You can also register custom Block Entity Types

INFO

If you're looking to create compostable blocks, or furnace fuel blocks, Unified API contains a multiloader Data Components helper to do just that - and there's also Block Conversions for custom behavior like log stripping

Methods

<T extends Block> SuppliedBlock register(String path, Function<BlockBehaviour.Properties, T> function, Supplier<BlockBehaviour.Properties> blockProperties);
<T extends Block, Y extends BlockEntity> SuppliedBlock register(String path, Function<BlockBehaviour.Properties, T> function, Supplier<BlockBehaviour.Properties> blockProperties, BlockEntityType<Y> type);

<T extends Block> SuppliedBlock registerWithoutItem(String path, Function<BlockBehaviour.Properties, T> function, Supplier<BlockBehaviour.Properties> properties);
<T extends Block, Y extends BlockEntity> SuppliedBlock registerWithoutItem(String path, Function<BlockBehaviour.Properties, T> function, Supplier<BlockBehaviour.Properties> properties, BlockEntityType<Y> type);

void addAlias(Identifier convertedFrom, Identifier convertedTo);

Example

public static UnifiedRegistries.Blocks BLOCKS = UnifiedRegistries.Blocks.create(ModName.MOD_ID);

public static final SuppliedBlock EXAMPLE_BLOCK = BLOCKS.register("example_block",
        Block::new,
        () -> BlockBehaviour.Properties.ofFullCopy(Blocks.STONE)
                .strength(1.8F, 8F),
        BlockEntityType.BED // (optional) this binds our block to a given block entity
);
