Bedrock...

[ILoveGregTech]

So if I edit bedrock in the block.Block classfile of Vanilla minecraft would that cause it become incompatible with other mods? Is it ill advised? I know it may break that balance of other mods but if I were to edit:

public static final Block bedrock = (new Block(7, Material.rock)).setBlockUnbreakable().setResistance(6000000.0F).setStepSound(soundStoneFootstep).setUnlocalizedName("bedrock").disableStats().setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock);

to

public static final Block bedrock = (new Block(7, Material.rock)).setHardnes(_____.F).setResistance(6000000.0F).setStepSound(soundStoneFootstep).setUnlocalizedName("bedrock").disableStats().setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock);

would it cause any major errors?

edit so in my baseclass file where I register everything would this work?

public static final Block bedrock = (new Block(7, Material.rock)).setHardness(100.0F).setResistance(5000.0F).setUnlocalizedName("bedrock").setCreativeTab(CreativeTabs.tabBlock);

I believe Reflection can do what you want without having to screw with actual values, thus leaving no question as to whether your mod would be Forge Compatible or not.

First off how come it is every time I have a code question I can count on you lol?
Also how would I do that?

Also how would I do that?

TO THE TUTORIALS/APIS OF COURSE! (specifically the classes and members sections of those tutorials, and most likely the .set(Obj o, Obj value) method of the field class, I think)

EDIT: You might also want to get the Field first, and use .setAccessible(true) on it, if necessary.

EDIT2: Upon further examination, use of .set (at least how I was doing it) screws with FML's state, .get(Object obj) is your friend.

Mother of god English please!!

How's Java?

try{
Field fi = null;

for(Field f : Block.class.getDeclaredFields())
{
if(f.getName().equals("bedrock"))
{
fi = f;
}
}

Object o = fi.get(DGlass); //DGlass being an object of Block type
Block bedrock = (Block) o; //Casting o to a block so you can screw with its fields
bedrock.setHardness(1); // 1 being your number here, because all setBlockUnbreakable() does is makes the hardness = -1

}catch(Exception e)
{
System.err.println(e.getClass().getName());
}

As a side note, you might want to understand how this code works, it is a very good idea to have a solid understanding of Reflection in modding.

OK I'll look into it more. Right now it's close to my sleepy sleep time and I don't feel like getting a headache(which is what watching/reading java tutorials usually does) thanks for the code also btw
and for the .setHardness wouldn't that be a float and also would I be able to put anything in there? to make it hard but breakable?

It probably should be a float, but I generally don't care and stick an int there anyway.

but the number can change?

 

[CrafterOfMines57]

but the number can change?

Yep, Hardness = 10:

 

[ILoveGregTech]

Yep, Hardness = 10:

Holy crap
now all I have to do is look up Iridium's hardness and set it higher than that... not too high though...
thanks so much man!
I can always count on you. I'm also going to use your mod in my 1.5.1 world.

What are you doing with this? Making a mod that can break bedrock in survival?

I'm not sure what you're doing here or why, but I have a feeling it's going to make my signature obsolete.
