đŸĒ‘ Creating furniture

Overview​

Furniture is an Oraxen item with the furniture mechanic. This tutorial creates a simple display-entity furniture item from a model stored in the Oraxen resource pack.

Before following this guide, prepare a model and texture. See Import a Blockbench model for the export process.

Tutorial​

Create a furniture configuration file​

Create plugins/Oraxen/items/furniture.yml, or add the item to an existing file in the same folder.

Add the furniture item​

Add the following configuration.

wooden_chair:
  itemname: "<gold>Wooden Chair"
  material: PAPER
  pack:
    generate_model: false
    model: furniture/wooden_chair
  mechanics:
    furniture:
      type: DISPLAY_ENTITY
      barrier: true
      hitboxes:
        - "0,0,0 0.8,1.0"
      rotatable: true
      restricted_rotation: VERY_STRICT

pack.model is the path to the model below plugins/Oraxen/pack/models, without .json.

DISPLAY_ENTITY is the recommended furniture type for modern servers. The barrier provides solid collision and interaction. For interaction without a solid barrier, remove barrier: true and use the hitboxes list.

Reload Oraxen​

Run /oraxen reload all.

Watch the console for configuration or resource-pack errors.

Give and place the furniture​

Run /oraxen give <player> wooden_chair.

Reconnect if necessary so the client receives the regenerated resource pack. Place the item and verify its model, texture, collision, and rotation.

note

Use properties under mechanics.furniture to adjust the size or position of a display-entity model. ARMOR_STAND furniture also uses properties for scale and translation.

mechanics:
  furniture:
    type: DISPLAY_ENTITY
    properties:
      scale:
        x: 0.8
        y: 0.8
        z: 0.8
      translation:
        x: 0
        y: 0.1
        z: 0

Use hitboxes for one or more interaction areas, with each entry formatted as <x>,<y>,<z> <width>,<height>. Legacy hitbox configurations are migrated automatically.

info

Use Blockbench to fix the model's base orientation. scale and translation are intended for small placement adjustments, not for correcting an incorrectly exported model.
