Block Renderers

Each block requires a renderer to be set for it, these have to be written on a case-by-case basis for special blocks, however, a number of renderers already exist for regular blocks.

Renderers are selected in blockrenderer.cpp as shown:

map[BLOCK_AIR] = null_renderer;
map[BLOCK_BOOKSHELF] = oriented_renderer;
map[BLOCK_CAKE] = std::make_shared<CakeRenderer>();
map[BLOCK_CRAFTING_TABLE] = oriented_renderer;
map[BLOCK_DIRT] = color_renderer;
map[BLOCK_DOOR] = std::make_shared<DoorRenderer>();
map[BLOCK_FURNACE] = oriented_renderer;
map[BLOCK_GLASS] = opacity_renderer;
map[BLOCK_GRASS] = color_renderer;
map[BLOCK_LEAVES] = std::make_shared<LeavesRenderer>();
map[BLOCK_TNT] = std::make_shared<TNTRenderer>();
map[BLOCK_PLANKS_NORMAL] = color_renderer;
map[BLOCK_PUMPKIN] = oriented_renderer;
map[BLOCK_REDSTONE_LAMP] = std::make_shared<LampRenderer>();
map[BLOCK_REDSTONE_SWITCH] = std::make_shared<SwitchRenderer>();
map[BLOCK_REDSTONE_WIRE] = std::make_shared<WireRenderer>();
map[BLOCK_REDSTONE_TORCH] = std::make_shared<RedstoneTorchRenderer>();
map[BLOCK_PRESSURE_PLATE] = std::make_shared<PressurePlateRenderer>();
map[BLOCK_SAND] = color_renderer;
map[BLOCK_STONE] = color_renderer;
map[BLOCK_TORCH] = std::make_shared<TorchRenderer>();
map[BLOCK_WATER] = std::make_shared<FluidRenderer>(13, 12, "Water");
map[BLOCK_LAVA] = std::make_shared<FluidRenderer>(13, 14, "Lava");
map[BLOCK_WHEAT] = std::make_shared<WheatRenderer>();
map[BLOCK_WOOD] = color_renderer;
map[BLOCK_WOOL] = std::make_shared<WoolRenderer>();
map[BLOCK_SLAB] = std::make_shared<SlabRenderer>();
map[BLOCK_CACTUS] = std::make_shared<CactusRenderer>();
map[BLOCK_CARPET] = std::make_shared<CarpetRenderer>();

The format is essentially: map[YOUR_BLOCK_NAME] = renderer;

All regular block renderers are:

Renderer Name	Description
null_renderer	Not actually used for blocks, basically makes the block nonexistant (like air, it is literally the renderer for air)
oriented_renderer	The renderer for blocks which need to be oriented with the front towards the player
color_renderer	The standard renderer for blocks
opacity_renderer	A renderer which supports opacity, used with Glass

Additionally, YOUR_BLOCK_NAME is the same object that was created with the block's ID
