Professions¶

AkumaLib gives an addon professions: trades a player levels up in by doing things, such as a cook, a fisher or a hunter. The library owns the registry, the player's XP, the levels, the client sync and a test command. Your addon declares the professions and decides what grants XP.

Crafting professions

For the block where a crafting profession makes its recipes, see Workstations.

Nothing here is tied to one addon

The library ships no profession of its own. Two addons can each declare theirs, and a player levels in all of them side by side.

Declaring a profession¶

Professions live in the akumalib:professions registry. Your AkumaRegistry carries a PROFESSIONS deferred register for it:

public class MyProfessions {

    public static final RegistryObject<Profession> FISHER = MyRegistry.REGISTRY.registerProfession(
            "Fisher", () -> new Profession(ProfessionKind.GATHERING));

    public static final RegistryObject<Profession> COOK = MyRegistry.REGISTRY.registerProfession(
            "Cook", () -> new Profession(ProfessionKind.CRAFTING));

    public static void init() {
    }
}

// in your mod constructor
MyRegistry.REGISTRY.PROFESSIONS.register(modEventBus);
MyProfessions.init();

Put PROFESSIONS on your mod bus

A deferred register that never reaches the bus fails silently: the professions are simply never registered, and /profession does not list them.

The registry name comes from the display name ("Fisher" gives fisher). The display name is read from the key profession.<modid>.<name>, which your en_us.json must define:

"profession.mymod.fisher": "Fisher"
