Custom Wrench

nekosune · April 16, 2013 at 9:34 PM

I am making a mod that involves a special item used to start a portal. As this mod is an IC2 addon, and only really usable with that, I was thinking an irridium wrench, but I have hit the brick wall of there being no wrench stuff in the API, is there any way other then trying to copy the code into a new item, and fixing the stuff I dont have access to (like IC2.keyboard) I can make a custom wrench?

If your wrench is only needed to activate your portal, you really don't need any "wrench stuff" in the API to code that.

The problem is, I dont want it to be just a useless item only meant for opening the portal, as it is rather expensive (4 plates and a diamond and a wrench) so I was planning on making it act as a more durable wrench with a lesser loss rate, but without this it looks like I cant, and may go a different route then the wrench one.

With the lack of API functions, I would write this off as impossible, but OmniWrench has done it http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1378315-…acks-bind-them/

EDIT: this link is probably better: http://thermalexpansion.wikispaces.com/OmniTools

So basically the only way is to copy and translate the wrenching code onto your own item, Thankyou anyway!

As Far as I know, there is a Wrench API.

Said Wrench API doesnt contain the Code of the actual Wrench. Only the Stuff for making a TileEntity compatible with said Wrench.
