Crafting

For developers

All detectors have their own data tag. For copper detector it's minecraft:copper_ores and metaldetectors:copper_ores, for jewel detector its metaldetectors:jewels.json etc.

To add your own detectible block you need to create metaldetectors/tags/blocks folders inside datapack. After that, create file <name>.json.

Names:

• Copper detector: copper_ores
• Iron detector: iron_ores
• Gold detector: gold_ores
• Jewel detector: jewel

Open file <name>.json in editor. Paste {"values": []}. Inside square brackets put block id ("mod:myblock", for example). If you have more than one block to add to list, add comma and type next block id. Result will be {"values": ["mod:myblock", "mod:block", "mod:my", ...]}
