Moved Registry events to directly AFTER PreInit instead of before.
This allows modders to register handlers for it without @EventBusSubscriber.
It also allows you to register custom things needed before the construction of blocks or items such as Fluids.
TODO: Move Fluids to a real registry.
@ObjectHolder can now be used on private fields.
Reworked FMLModIdMappingEvent to include data for all registries.
Tile Entities are now registrable.
Tests do not run yet.
Things of note:
Removed the idea of substitutions, just register multiple items with the same name they will override each other like a normal map.
Decoupled Forge registries from vanilla classes. They now use bouncer classes. MODDERS SHOULD NEVER USE THESE
Introduced more stringent registry locking. As it sits things are only allowed to be registered during the RegistryEvent.Registry phases!
This is to force modders to split up their registrations, and pave the way for calling these functions multiple times during a single MC lifecycle.
ObjectHolder, Missing Mappings, etc... *should* now work for all registry types, nothing should be special cased to Blocks/Items anymore.
Added optional generic dummy factory to registries, to allow registry creators the ability to dummy more then just Blocks.
Re-worked the ItemStack transformer and applied it to ItemBlock and ItemBlockSpecial. Allowing us to cleanup reflective hacks in Block callbacks.
Registry onAdd callback is now only fired on the ACTIVE registry, fixing any issues of temp registries overriding active objects.
Some things to note:
Netty is screwy so currently can't join single player. @cpw
Crafting has been MAJORY reworked. The current GameRegistry functions are nooped, this is IN THE WORKS.
Just need to move the recipe list to a full class registry, and then re implement the in-code recipe registration.
Also, it IS advised that modders move to JSON, because ideally we'll see a S->C recipe syncing system in 1.13
which would allow servers to have custom recipes.
OreDictionary currently 1/2 works, need to write a better algorithm for replacing ingredients.
Please be patient
Rendering:
A lot of functions got a new float parameter, this is similar to partial ticks, needs more research
Most of our test mods have bad IDs (uppercase) and are missing names or
versions. Forge produces a bunch of warnings in the console about this, which
makes it more likely that an important message will be missed.
Major things to note:
Class renames: https://gist.github.com/LexManos/44dd211f90f498ad4015279b103dff86
Tile Entities are now packed in the ChunkData packet.
Forge intends to work around this to better support large moded worlds, but for the time being modders should implement the new function carefully and only send what data they need to!
Minecraft's codebase now has annotations, these are directly from Mojang and should be adheared to!
Added support for package-info.java's containing @Nullable information for all MC code base.
This happens when no other mod that uses the bucket model is present.
Also added a simple method for registering the bucket model, should give
modders an idea on how to use the general model.
