/Give command.

How to use the give command. Any help?

[jordan4ibanez]

/give playername NodeItem/CraftItem mod:name of thing #of it you want

or /giveme to give your self that thing

a NodeItem is an item that becomes part of the map..like steel_block or grass_block

a CraftItem is an item that you craft (i most easily think about it as an item when you right click it puts it down)

the mod part is the name of the mod folder

the # is the number of that thing you want

so lets say..i want...a nuke from sfan5's nuke mod

do: /giveme NodeItem nuke:mese_tnt 900000

woowww! thats a node? i thought you craft that! ..threw you a curved ball didn't i? since that is a block when placed down it is considered a node in the lua of the mod..if you just breeze through the mods you can see whats what ..or you can try it yourself until you get it right

..any ways..got any questions?

[Jordach]

Like bricks?

as this?

/give jordach brick_block 90?

Still stuck.

[jordan4ibanez]

you forgot the NodeItem ...that tells the program what type of block it is..and also you forgot to put default in front of brick...so it would be

/giveme NodeItem default:brick 90

[Jordach]

there we go.

noobs should find this command easier to use. thanks.

want some mese??

/giveme NodeItem default:mese 99

you will get mese.

You can use node craft and tool instead of NodeItem CraftItem and ToolItem

[Jordach]

I do find it funny when I can get torches from nodeitem.

Anybody make a list of items for the give command on the wiki please.

[sfan5]

That would be too many work

[Jordach]

No it wont be, just about several hours.

You should look into mod's sources.

And yes, give command shouldn't give unknown blocks.

I tried to get 99 steel ingots but it gave me 99 pink squares. Having to put NodeItem or CraftItem is really stupid. It's not like there's going to be two things with the same name where one is a CraftItem and one is a NodeItem.

I understand where your coming from and I agree However, I thought I would also note that you don't have to use NodeItem/CraftItem etc you can use just tool, craft or node which I know doesn't fix the unknown object issue but it makes the give command shorter ^_^

FWIW, I'm working on a patch that completely eliminates the need for node/craft/tool. :D

^_^ awesome, would this also eliminate the unknown objects being given when a user types the command incorrectly?

EDIT: as neko259 reported above.

[kahrl]

Not directly, but I guess I could do that too :)

[Jordach]

and this is why it needs fixing.

[alleyrules]

um why does it say cannot give an unknown block?

You probably typed the name wrong. This topic is very old and is about an obsolete usage of the /give command.
