I don't add it on purpose because if someone uses the block incorrectly because the user doesn't know how everything works or if the person wants to delete files from the players' computers, I don't want to help this. So I just let users that need it to do it themself.
is there a way to fix the plugin not working when porting form a 4.x to 5.x version? none of the blocks are appearing nor are the variables which makes it quite literally impossible for me to use even after removing the plugin and restarting and putting it back in and restarting again etc etc
Breaking changes have been made, so you have 2 options.
1. Remake from scratch what you made.
2. Open the ZIP file (using 7ZIP for example), then open plugin.json and change the id for something else and save everything. Then, you can use both versions at the same time.
I think it might be due to some kind of syntax error, it keeps just putting "file" in front of bw.write without anything else (making "filebw.write" which doesn't seem to make sense). Also java.io.FileWriter; and java.io.BufferedWriter; aren't in the imports, but I'm not sure if that could be a problem.
Here's the generated code, "flagbw.write" doesn't look right:
public static void executeProcedure(Map<String, Object> dependencies) {
String flagname = "";
boolean flagset = false;
File file = new File("");
file = (File) new File((FMLPaths.GAMEDIR.get().toString() + "/config/"), File.separator + "flags.properties");
if (!file.exists()) {
try {
file.getParentFile().mkdirs();
file.createNewFile();
} catch (IOException exception) {
exception.printStackTrace();
}
{
filebw.write("chicken=true");
filebw.newLine();
}
{
filebw.write("pig=true");
filebw.newLine();
}
{
filebw.write("cow=false");
filebw.newLine();
}
}
Do you have an update coming for the 1.20.1 snapshot or will you be waiting for the 2023.3 full release?
