I am unable to get anything to work

I am following the IntelliJ tutorial on the docs, I have followed every step, but I still can’t get anything to work right for me.

Here are some images, last time I tried to paste my code in it left some things out.

I seriously have no idea. From what I can tell the packages are imported from spongepowered, but they aren’t recognized in my code. I could use some help.

Make sure intellij is treating the dependencies as a dependency of your plugin module (I believe in project config or something along those lines)

In project structure

From your build.gradle, it looks like you’ve removed the group; try adding it back. Also, remove sourceCompatibility. And then refresh Gradle again.

not dependencies it?

build.gradle

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
    maven {
        name = 'sponge'
        url = 'http://repo.spongepowered.org/maven'
    }
}

dependencies {
    compile 'org.spongepowered:spongeapi:5.0.0'
    compile files('spongevanilla-1.10.2-5.1.0-BETA-366.jar')
    testCompile group: 'junit', name: 'junit', version: '4.11'
}

what?

Also, you don’t need to compile against the server jar; that defeats the purpose of the API.
