[TUTORIAL] Working OreDictionary Compatibility

Hi guys.

For a long time I was trying to figure out how to add a item to ore dictionary in mcreator but with no success. I searched in every Mcreator's topics to find out, I considered to totally remake my mod in Eclipse, but today, I was editing the code and BAAAAM, I find out.

As you all know, in Mcreator 1.9 you can just edit your mod elements code but you can't edit Main.java anymore because Mcreator replaces the code every time you build your mod.

The way i did was:

1st -> Edit the code of your element (mine was a copper ingot). Be sure that you choose "lock mcreator code" option.

2nd-> On the import's section add:

import net.minecraftforge.oredict.OreDictionary.OreRegisterEvent;

import net.minecraftforge.oredict.OreDictionary;

3rd-> Find public ItemCustom()  and under setCreativeTab(MCreatorZMSTab.tab); just put this code:

-OreDictionary.registerOre("ingotCopper", this);

DONE

My full code:

package net.mcreator.YOURMODNAME;

public class MCreatorCopperIngot extends YOURMODNAME.ModElement {

    @GameRegistry.ObjectHolder("YOURMODNAME:zmscopper")
    public static final Item block = null;

    public MCreatorCopperIngot(YOURMODNAME instance) {
        super(instance);
        instance.items.add(() -> new ItemCustom());
    }

    @SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)
    @Override
    public void registerModels(ModelRegistryEvent event) {
        ModelLoader.setCustomModelResourceLocation(block, 0, new ModelResourceLocation("YOURMODNAME:zmscopper", "inventory"));
    }
    

    public static class ItemCustom extends Item {

        public ItemCustom() {
            setMaxDamage(0);
            maxStackSize = 64;
            setUnlocalizedName("zmscopper");
            setRegistryName("zmscopper");
            setCreativeTab(MCreatorZMSTab.tab);
            OreDictionary.registerOre("ingotCopper", this);
        }
        
    

        @Override
        public int getItemEnchantability() {
            return 0;
        }

        @Override
        public int getMaxItemUseDuration(ItemStack par1ItemStack) {
            return 0;
        }

        @Override
        public float getDestroySpeed(ItemStack par1ItemStack, IBlockState par2Block) {
            return 1F;
        }
    }
