I have a valid Java code that I would like to test, but I do not want to use the blocks in the procedure editor I have opened in one of the procedures in my workspace. I have caught wind of a "code editor" in which the user can write code there instead of the blocks, and I can't find the proper place for that, as there is no code button that allows me to do that. This is the latest unmodified version of MCreator. I am very new to all of this coding and software, so please excuse me if I am a little uneducated. I would like to paste a code into the code editor for one of my procedures so it can run off some of the unique items I created in my workspace and work in the game. Thanks!
You can use code block from the advanced tab from the procedures.
Or you can lock the code of the element and then edit it as a code.
I suggest you check our tutorials collection playlist on our YouTube channel which contains many examples and tutorials that can help you get started with MCreator: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLAeL-oIFIEngE6jRgFYeFMfuj8WQsO3Ei
There is no "lock button" either in the top right corner when editing the procedure. Right-clicking the procedure in the workspace, it says, "Lock/unlock mod element." When I do this, it locks it with a purple banner on top, but I don't know if I'm doing it right or where to go from there.
This is the correct process. Then click on the element again and code editor will open.
I really highly recommend checking some tutorials to understand MCreator before trying to advanced things like custom code and locking code
