-Once you have created the ''BlockEntity'' class, you will need to register it for it to function. The first step of this process is to create a ''BlockEntityType'', which links your ''Block'' and ''BlockEntity'' together. Assuming your ''Block'' has been created and saved to a local variable ''DEMO_BLOCK'', you would create the matching ''BlockEntityType'' with the line below. ''modid:demo'' should be replaced by your Mod ID and the name you want your ''BlockEntity'' to be registered under.+Once you have created the ''BlockEntity'' class, you will need to register it for it to function.
