Block set in code doesn't save

Recommended Posts

I've been trying to get my mod to place blocks (using things like the Nether portal code for reference), and it seems to work. But when I reload the world, they're gone! I speculate that it's not sending the information to the server... Here's the process I use:

world.editBlocks = true;
world.setBlockWithNotify(x, y, z, Block.stone.blockID);
world.editBlocks = false;

I've even seen some vanilla code that doesn't do the whole

world.editBlocks

thing -- in fact, most of it doesn't! But in any case, I just can't get this to work... Please help! :)

I like to make mods, just like you. Here's one worth checking out

No, just make sure your doing it client side. That's what the

if (!world.isRemote)

is for. If isRemote returns true, it's running the code from the server (it runs from both client and server though). So the code only runs when the client runs the code.

 

And I have no idea about GUIs. There's bound to be a method for when you close them though.

The enders are everywhere. You can't escape...

wow ... StrangeOne101... im sorry but youre soooo wrong. every modification to the world MUST be done server side or else they will be erased.

@op: a general answer would be to tell you you must send a package to tell the server that a certain plaer has accomplished the action. if you explained in more details what you want to do i could give a better explanation. but youre going to need to send a packet.

also, you DONT need the editBlocks thing

Ok, I've been trying to do work on the packet for a few days now using the Forge packet handling page, but for some reason the packet handler always excecutes on the client side (I've confirmed this by getting the side in the debugger and also using

@SideOnly(Side.SERVER)

). And the code for the packet calls are written exactly following the tutorial... here are the files in question: BlockStargateController.java, line 127, PacketHandler.java, line 18

 

Does this have something to do with me only testing this on SP? I though Minecraft ran a server even for that gamemode anyway...

 

PS: I also did use

[url=https://github.com/jwosty/Minecraft-SpaceDistortionMod/blob/develop/common/SpaceDistortion.java#L15]serverSide=true[/url]

in the mod class

@NetworkMod

annotation

 

EDIT: I'm using this for a similar effect to the Nether portal stuff, but to called from a GUI instead of a block tick or whatever.

This code

Minecraft.getMinecraft()

is client side only.

You will crash on server if you use it in a class which isn't client side only.

 

Use player.openGui(args) to open a GUI, and handle it with a IGuiHandler.

PS: I also did use serverSide=true in the mod class @NetworkMod annotation

You can leave it to false, it probably isn't necessary. On the contrary, clientSide=true is necessary.

I'm not trying to write the open GUI code: I already have that. Essentially I'm trying to place some blocks from the GUI, usin a packet. The recieving end of the packet handler is only executing on the client server instead of the server side when I send the packet to the server...

 

And thanks for pointing out that

Minecraft.getMinecraft()

doesn't work on server side, which means that that part, ironically, should cause a crash when the packet sends correctly and the server receives it instead of the client... I guess that's how I'll know when it works!

If you don't crash, that means your PacketHandler class doesn't even initialize.

Which means you don't have packethandler=PacketHandler.class in your @NetworkMod annotation.

By the way, correctly opening the GUI is essential, and might well be the source of your problem.

It is impossible to send a packet from client to client without going through a server.

Be careful -- if you're testing in single player mode, all the client side methods are accessible, even from server-only parts of the code, which means it's possible to write code that works fine in single player, but crashes when run on a real server.

 

Concerning the packet handler, if you use packethandler = ... in @NetworkMod, it uses the same packet handler class for both client and server, so it's possible that your packet *is* being received on the server side but you're not noticing.

 

Also, the earlier reply concerning isRemote got it backwards -- isRemote == true on the client side and false on the server side. You might be getting confused by that.

).

I think the side is always reported as client side in single player. It's probably more reliable to check world.isRemote.

 

Also, I don't think the @SideOnly annotations do anything in mod code. All methods are compiled in, so that the same jar can be used on client and server.

  • 4 weeks later...

After a long break from this project then finally another debugging session, I discovered a few days ago that the problem was in the code that opens the GUI... I guess it was a simple as changing this:

 

 

if (world.isRemote) {
Minecraft.getMinecraft().displayGuiScreen(new GuiDHD(x, y, z));
}

 

 

to:

 

 

if ([color=red][b]![/b][/color]world.isRemote) {
Minecraft.getMinecraft().displayGuiScreen(new GuiDHD(x, y, z));
}

Wow, this is hilariously bad.

 

/** This is set to true for client worlds, and false for server worlds. */
    public boolean isRemote;

Apparently I'm a complete and utter jerk and come to this forum just like to make fun of people, be confrontational, and make your personal life miserable.  If you think this is the case, JUST REPORT ME.  Otherwise you're just going to get reported when you reply to my posts and point it out, because odds are, I was trying to be nice.

 

Exception: If you do not understand Java, I WILL NOT HELP YOU and your thread will get locked.

 

DO NOT PM ME WITH PROBLEMS. No help will be given.

The way that you're opening the GUI is really not optimal. I tried doing that when I first started doing GUIs, and it always ended in horrible server/client desyncing. The way you have it set now, like Draco said, shouldn't even be working. You're telling the server to open a GUI, and I bet that would crash instantly on a real server.

 

Look up stuff concerning IGuiHandler. That is the way that you are "supposed" to do it in Forge. It takes care of making sure that both the server and the client know what the player is doing, and that you can get the relevant code running for both sides.

    • I'm developing a dimension, but it's kinda resource intensive so some times during player teleporting it lags behind making the player phase down into the void, so im trying to implement some kind of pregeneration to force the game loading a small set of chunks in the are the player will teleport to. Some of the things i've tried like using ServerLevel and ServerChunkCache methods like getChunk() dont actually trigger chunk generation if the chunk isn't already on persistent storage (already generated) or placing tickets, but that doesn't work either. Ideally i should be able to check when the task has ended too. I've peeked around some pregen engines, but they're too complex for my current understanding of the system of which I have just a basic understanding (how ServerLevel ,ServerChunkCache  and ChunkMap work) of. Any tips or other classes I should be looking into to understand how to do this correctly?

    • Way back in the Forge 1.17 days, work started for adding JPMS (Java Platform Module Support) to ModLauncher and ForgeModLoader. This has been used internally by Forge and some libraries for a while now, but mods (those with mods.toml specifically) have not been able to take advantage of it. As of Forge 1.21.1 and 1.21.3, this is now possible!   What is JPMS and what does it mean for modders? JPMS is the Java Platform Module System, introduced in Java 9. It allows you to define modules, which are collections of packages and resources that can be exported or hidden from other modules. This allows for much more fine-tuned control over visibility, cleaner syntax for service declarations and support for sealed types across packages. For example, you might have a mod with a module called `com.example.mod` that exports `com.example.mod.api` and `com.example.mod.impl` to other mods, but hides `com.example.mod.internal` from them. This would allow you to have a clean API for other mods to use, while keeping your internal implementation details hidden from IDE hints, helping prevent accidental usage of internals that might break without prior notice. This is particularly useful if you'd like to use public records with module-private constructors or partially module-private record components, as you can create a sealed interface that only your record implements, having the interface be exported and the record hidden. It's also nice for declaring and using services, as you'll get compile-time errors from the Java compiler for typos and the like, rather than deferring to runtime errors. In more advanced cases, you can also have public methods that are only accessible to specific other modules -- handy if you want internal interactions between multiple of your own mods.   How do I bypass it? We understand there may be drama in implementing a system that prevents mods from accessing each other's internals when necessary (like when a mod is abandoned or you need to fix a compat issue) -- after all, we are already modding a game that doesn't have explicit support for Java mods yet. We have already thought of this and are offering APIs from day one to selectively bypass module restrictions. Let me be clear: Forge mods are not required to use JPMS. If you don't want to use it, you don't have to. The default behaviour is to have fully open, fully exported automatic modules. In Java, you can use the `Add-Opens` and `Add-Exports` manifest attributes to selectively bypass module restrictions of other mods at launch time, and we've added explicit support for these when loading your Forge mods. At compile-time, you can use existing solutions such as the extra-java-module-info Gradle plugin to deal with non-modular dependencies and add extra opens and exports to other modules. Here's an example on how to make the internal package `com.example.examplemod.internal` open to your mod in your build.gradle: tasks.named('jar', Jar) { manifest { attributes([ 'Add-Opens' : 'com.example.examplemod/com.example.examplemod.internal' 'Specification-Title' : mod_id, 'Specification-Vendor' : mod_authors // (...) ]) } } With the above in your mod's jar manifest, you can now reflectively access the classes inside that internal package. Multiple entries are separated with a space, as per Java's official spec. You can also use Add-Exports to directly call without reflection, however you'd need to use the Gradle plugin mentioned earlier to be able to compile. The syntax for Add-Exports is the same as Add-Opens, and instructions for the compile-time step with the Gradle plugin are detailed later in this post. Remember to prefer the opens and exports keywords inside module-info.java for sources you control. The Add-Opens/Add-Exports attributes are only intended for forcing open other mods.   What else is new with module support? Previously, the runtime module name was always forced to the first mod ID in your `mods.toml` file and all packages were forced fully open and exported. Module names are now distinguished from mod IDs, meaning the module name in your module-info.java can be different from the mod ID in your `mods.toml`. This allows you to have a more descriptive module name that doesn't have to be the same as your mod ID, however we strongly recommend including your mod ID as part of your module name to aid troubleshooting. The `Automatic-Module-Name` manifest attribute is now also honoured, allowing you to specify a module name for your mod without needing to create a `module-info.java` file. This is particularly useful for mods that don't care about JPMS features but want to have a more descriptive module name and easier integration with other mods that do use JPMS.   How do I use it? The first step is to create a `module-info.java` file in your mod's source directory. This file should be in the same package as your main mod class, and should look something like this: open module com.example.examplemod { requires net.minecraftforge.eventbus; requires net.minecraftforge.fmlcore; requires net.minecraftforge.forge; requires net.minecraftforge.javafmlmod; requires net.minecraftforge.mergetool.api; requires org.slf4j; requires logging; } For now, we're leaving the whole module open to reflection, which is a good starting point. When we know we want to close something off, we can remove the open modifier from the module and open or export individual packages instead. Remember that you need to be open to Forge (module name net.minecraftforge.forge), otherwise it can't call your mod's constructor. Next is fixing modules in Gradle. While Forge and Java support modules properly, Gradle does not put automatic modules on the module path by default, meaning that the logging module (from com.mojang:logging) is not found. To fix this, add the Gradle plugin and add a compile-time module definition for that Mojang library: plugins { // (...) id 'org.gradlex.extra-java-module-info' version "1.9" } // (...) extraJavaModuleInfo { failOnMissingModuleInfo = false automaticModule("com.mojang:logging", "logging") } The automatic module override specified in your build.gradle should match the runtime one to avoid errors. You can do the same for any library or mod dependency that is missing either a module-info or explicit Automatic-Module-Name, however be aware that you may need to update your mod once said library adds one. That's all you need to get started with module support in your mods. You can learn more about modules and how to use them at dev.java.
