Solved Create diorite block and spruce wood with direction

Hi all,
I'm quite new to bukkit and can't find out how to create diorite block, as I only have stone material. I saw on several threads that you have to use data but setData is deprecated in 1.10.

In addition I'd like to place spruce wood with a specific direction, how could I manage this? Any ideas?

Thank you in advance

 

Thank you for the fast answer, do you have a small example as I don't know how to passe the value to MaterialData or should I use a subclass?

 

Ok but do you have a small code example?

 

I found some examples for Trees, to have birch instead of default one by using TreeSpeces but coulnd't find yet something for diorite or stones in general.

Should I set the byte data from MeterialData even if it's deprecated? Is it the only way?
I was looking for something better like a subclass of Stone.

 

Why exactly are you talking about BlocksStates? I mean Block#setData() was already the right method, even if it is deprecated.
Also the wood direction comes with greater bytes. Like 0 - 3 is oak, spruce, birch, tropic wood (probably) and 4 - 7 oak wood etc. Better test it yourself

 

Well, was looking for a solution to not have deprecated code.
BTW is resolved now.

 

Code:

Log directions: 
   Oak log:
      Normal: Material.LOG (data: 0)
      Facing west-east: Material.LOG (data: 4)
      Facing north-south: Material.LOG (data: 8)
      All sides: Material.LOG (data: 12)
   Spruce log:
      Normal: Material.LOG (data: 1)
      Facing west-east: Material.LOG (data: 5)
      Facing north-south: Material.LOG (data: 9)
      All sides: Material.LOG (data: 13)
   Birch log:
      Normal: Material.LOG (data: 2)
      Facing west-east: Material.LOG (data: 6)
      Facing north-south: Material.LOG (data: 10)
      All sides: Material.LOG (data: 14)
   Jungle log:
      Normal: Material.LOG (data: 3)
      Facing west-east: Material.LOG (data: 7)
      Facing north-south: Material.LOG (data: 11)
      All sides: Material.LOG (data: 15)
   Acacia log:
      Normal: Material.LOG_2 (data: 0)
      Facing west-east: Material.LOG_2 (data: 4)
      Facing north-south: Material.LOG_2 (data: 8)
      All sides: Material.LOG_2 (data: 12)
   Darkoak log:
      Normal: Material.LOG_2 (data: 1)
      Facing west-east: Material.LOG_2 (data: 5)
      Facing north-south: Material.LOG_2 (data: 9)
      All sides: Material.LOG_2 (data: 13)

Hope i helped some

 

Without deprecation?

There is a reason this method is deprecated, and it's because you shouldn't use it. Using direct data values has been phased out by both Mojang and Spigot, so you should avoid using it as much as possible.

In this case you should just use the MaterialData API with the 'Tree' subclass.

Code:java

Block block = ...
block.setType(Material.LOG);
BlockState state = block.getState();
Tree data = new Tree();
data.setSpecies(TreeSpecies.REDWOOD);
data.setDirection(BlockFace.SELF);
state.setData(data);
state.update();

 

@timtower
Stone is one of the few materials not yet covered by the MaterialData API (although I really hope it will be soon), so for that one you're forced to use the raw data values.
