Minecraft Mod Idea - shadekiller666 - 11-18-2013
Hey guys, I've always enjoyed playing with mods installed on minecraft. One annoyance that I'm noticing more and more often with mods updating, is that the documentation on their wiki's and things take weeks to update sometimes. I want to make a mod to address this.
The mod would add an item that would act as a sort of "scanner". When right clicked on a block it would display a gui with information about how the block is used and how it integrates with other blocks in the mod that it comes from. The information for each block/mod would be synced with a server via SVN to update any files that changed since the last time the user's client was launched.
The information that this mod would provide would be obtained through the community. Potential contributors would send in information about a block/mod to be added to the mod. This information would be checked for accuracy and legitimacy, and would be added to the mod upon approval. If a contributor consistently adds correct information they are considered to be "trusted contributors", at which point any information they provide is automatically added to the server for update to the client.
I have a few problems regarding this mod idea. The first is that I know very very little about coding in Java. The second being that I also have no knowledge about how to write mods for minecraft and integrating with Forge. Any suggestions/advice/encouragement is appreciated. Thanks.

I can work on this but it would also need NEI installed.
RE: Minecraft Mod Idea - shadekiller666 - 11-18-2013
Not sure if i want to make it an NEI plugin.
RE: Minecraft Mod Idea - Chibill - 11-19-2013
I was going to just use its functions from my mod more like NEI is a library for mine it would be.

I am going to start working on this because my mod is losing my interests.

Sorry but I am making a update that I am working on this! And you have made bigger bumps.

Chibill is the king of bumps, or "posting updates". Whichever you prefer.
