When facing a wall in coding—especially for a complex mod like a JoJo spin effect—it's crucial to break down the problem into smaller, manageable parts. Start by isolating what your spin mod needs: rotation logic, player input handling, and rendering effects. Experiment with simple rotation code first, then gradually add JOJO-themed complexity.
Tips:
- Research similar mods/plugins: Look for existing Minecraft mods with rotation or animation features to understand their approach.
- Use debugging and small tests: Write small snippets to test rotation logic or entity manipulation before integrating into the main mod.
- Ask for feedback: Share your current code chunk on your Discord or forums for focused advice and brainstorming.
- Leverage the Minecraft and Forge API: Familiarize yourself with player rotation methods and entity rendering.
- Document your progress: Write what you want the spin mod to do step-by-step; turning complex goals into clear tasks often sparks ideas.
Useful links:
- Minecraft Forge Documentation — Official modding docs, great for understanding mod structures and APIs.
- Stack Overflow’s Java Tag — A vast Q&A community where you can find examples or ask specifics.
- Minecraft Modding Tutorials by McJty — Practical tutorials aimed at mod creators.
Keep iterating and learning gradually—spinning effects require patience and solid understanding of both game mechanics and Java basics.
are you "facing a wall" or do you just not have much experience
because it seems like your very first coding is just "make minecraft mod"
you will have a much easier time going the long way around and getting comfortable with more base level mechanics
experience
i never done a mod before
how much java have you written
teleport behind the wall
make a door in the 7 dimensions
skip the wall
open the door in the wall
follow the wall to a hole in it
make a hole
jump over it
didint start yet on my mod (if thats what u asking)
no
i mean have you written any of the java programming language before
which is something totally separate from minecraft
on course like char variables and spring and etc
hope i said course right
english aint my language lmao
