Solved No way to Set a block data without using Block.Setdata() ?

Hi, im trying to change the wool color of an existent white wool block without using the old deprecated method.

I have tryed something like that, but seeing no changes in the game.

At the change part of my code:

Code:java

MaterialData state = block.getState().getData();
if (state instanceof Wool) {
    ((Wool) state).setColor(DyeColor.RED);
    block.getState().setType(Material.WOOL);
    block.getState().setData(state);
    block.getState().update(true);
}

Did i something wrong? Or maybe my approach is wrong, if someone can lighting me about that please...

 

I haven't done too much with this but try getting the BlockState once, setting everything to that instance, and updating that instead of getting it each time. If it's anything like ItemMeta, each time you use getState() it would be a new instance.

 

How to do that? in one instance...

 

Code:java

BlockState state = block.getState();
MaterialData data = state.getData();
if (data instanceof Wool) {
    ((Wool) data).setColor(DyeColor.RED);
    state.setData(data);
    state.update(true);
}

 

Ok nice, it works, you were right! Thank you so much.
