When [[Mod Packaging| | When [[Mod Packaging|packaging a mod]] you specify a domain by placing a directory inside the mod <code>assets</code> directory with all your mod assets inside. The name of your domain directory will be the "current domain" for all assets inside it. If no domain has been specified in an asset code the game will assume it is in the current domain. Meaning you only have to add a domain prefix if you want to refer to something outside the current domain. | ||
So if you want to create a new block which uses the original leather texture, you would have to specify the domain (since your block has a different one). So instead of using <code>assets/textures/blocks/leather.png</code>, you would have add the prefix for the domain <code>game:assets/textures/blocks/leather.png</code>. | So if you want to create a new block which uses the original leather texture, you would have to specify the domain (since your block has a different one).
