When the wiki says some function returns, say, the "raw data" of the material in byte form, where, if anywhere, does it tell what each bit does?
Yeah, that was the first place I looked. As far as I can tell, there isnt anything in there about it.
I'm not sure but i think what you are searching for might be here: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Data_values Greetz Mad
Huh, I guess that is it. I think I saw that page, but skipped over it because I thought it was all about the ID numbers of the types, I didn't see what was below. I did noticed that on things like signs, in the Sign class, it gets the data to see which way its facing, and it matches up with whats listed on that page. Thanks!
