/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?

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

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

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.

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

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