TileEntity

A TileEntity is a block that has internal logic and tick-based updates.

Getting the owner of a TileEntity

KotlinJava

val tileEntity = tileEntityManager.getTileEntityAt(location) ?: return
val owner = tileEntity.owner

TileEntity tileEntity = tileEntityManager.getTileEntityAt(location);
if (tileEntity == null)
    return;
OfflinePlayer owner = tileEntity.getOwner();

Getting the localized name of a TileEntity

Using the NovaBlock of a TileEntity, you can get the name of a TileEntity.

For this example, we'll get the english name of a Pulverizer.

KotlinJava

val tileEntity = tileEntityManager.getTileEntityAt(location) ?: return
val name = tileEntity.block.getLocalizedName("en_us")
println(name) // prints "Pulverizer"

TileEntity tileEntity = tileEntityManager.getTileEntityAt(location);
if(tileEntity == null)
    return;
String name = tileEntity.getMaterial().getLocalizedName("en_us");
System.out.println(name); // prints "Pulverizer"

Getting the drops of a TileEntity

These drops include all items in the TileEntity's inventory and the TileEntity itself if includeSelf is set to true.

KotlinJava

val tileEntity = tileEntityManager.getTileEntityAt(location) ?: return
val drops = tileEntity.getDrops(includeSelf = true)

TileEntity tileEntity = tileEntityManager.getTileEntityAt(location);
if (tileEntity == null)
    return;
List<ItemStack> drops = tileEntity.getDrops(true);
