 ====== Block Biome Coloring ====== ====== Block Biome Coloring ======
-In this tutorial we will show how to make blocks get affected by the biome color similar to leaves and grass. It's very important that it's done on client side in //onInitializeClient// as it otherwise will cause a crash. To register a custom block coloring use //ColorProviderRegistry.BLOCK.register// and for items //ColorProviderRegistry.ITEM.register//. The color could be any but in this tutorial the grass biome color will be the one used.+In this tutorial, we'll look at adding biome-dependent colors to new blocks. To start, you'll need a block with a model that accounts for tintindex. To see an example of this, view the base leaves or grass_block model file.  
 + 
 +Remember to keep visual-related logic client-side, (//onInitializeClient//) or it will crash on a server. To register a custom block coloring, use //ColorProviderRegistry.BLOCK.register//, and for items, use //ColorProviderRegistry.ITEM.register//. In this tutorial, the grass biome color will be the one used.

-So what's happening here? Well, the register method wants a color returned and in this case that color is taken from the grass block, using the method's parameters block, pos, world and layer. Coloring an item is very similar. Like blocks the returned color could be any //Color.black// for example but we will show how to get the default grass color.+So, what's happening here? The register method wants a color returned, and in this case, that color is taken from the grass block. Coloring an item is very similar. Like blocks, the returned color could be any, but we'll once again use grass blocks for the example.
