Creating a block

This guide assumes you've already created and setup an Avoid project.
This guide uses meta-programming. Another way may either not be implemented or you may need to figure it on your own.

§ Making a block with the Avoid Framework

---

1. Create a java class;
   You can pick any location within your project source code directory.

2. Paste the following code:
   

   package com.example.avoidtmpl;
   
   import pl.olafcio.avoid.mods.annotation_processor.AutoBlock;
   import pl.olafcio.avoid.mods.annotation_processor.AutoBlockItem;
   import pl.olafcio.avoid.mods.annotation_processor.AutoID;
   import pl.olafcio.avoid.net.block.Block;
   import pl.olafcio.avoid.net.block.properties.*;
   import pl.olafcio.avoid.net.block.values.MapColor;
   import pl.olafcio.avoid.net.block.values.NoteBlockInstrument;
   
   @AutoBlock
   @AutoBlockItem
   @AutoID
   
   @_strength(0.8F)
   @_ignitedByLava
   @_instrument(NoteBlockInstrument.BANJO)
   
   public class AlphaDirtBlock extends Block {
       @Override
       public MapColor getMapColor() {
           return MapColor.COLOR_BLACK;
       }
   }

   Of course you need to replace the class name and package.
   

3. Customize it as you wish;
   I would say the API is quite easy once it clicks, as all block properties are done with these little underscore (_)-prefixed annotations.
   You can change the block's map color, tick methods (and maybe more at the time you're reading this) in the class contents itself [by overriding inherited Block methods].
