Setting Harvest Tool and Harvest level [1.15.2]

[Eilux]

Any guidance would be appreciated.

I wonder what the Item.Properties class does.

[Eilux]

I meant for a Block

[Niprow]

I wonder what the Block.Properties class does.

[Eilux]

I KNOW what it dose I MEANT how do you use the harvestTool() and harvestLevel() Methods.

[Niprow]

you can call it in the constructor of your block, it returns itself.

do you know java?

I ask because you could also just create a variable with Block.Properties#create , then run all methods on it and then insert the variable in the constructor. This is basic java, you should know this before you start modding!

...and more clarification on what it is that you're struggling to understand, and/or what you've tried.

[Eilux]

    public static final RegistryObject<Block> SHADESTONE = BLOCKS.register("shadestone", () -> new Block(Block.Properties.create(Material.ROCK).hardnessAndResistance(5.0F,3.0F).sound(SoundType.STONE).harvestTool(???).harvestLevel(???)));

Here the question marks are where I don't know what to do, I don't know what value these methods require, and thank you i know java.

Pass in a ToolType to harvestTool. E.g. ToolType.AXE.

Harvest level Is just an integer. I believe it is something like 0: wood, 1: stone tools, 2: iron tools, 3: diamond tools.

Thank you thats just what i was looking for.

The harvest tool you could have found by looking at the method signature. It takes a ToolType value, looking at its definition you would have seen that it was an enum with 3 values.

The other takes an int. Looking at existing vanilla code (right click -> find all references) would have turned up what existing blocks used. Cross referencing with the wiki would have matched values with material.
