Time for what's probably a noob question!
I've never worked with multiplayer modding before, and have no idea how I'm supposed to get packets working. I noticed there's a packets and channels section in the wiki page for updating to 1.3, but there's nothing in there. Any idea when that's going to be done?
In the mean time, I'm trying to set up a gui that handles a custom crafting thing for my mod. When a button is pushed in the gui, the container looks at what's in the two core slots and writes some NBT stuff to the itemstack in the wand slot. How should I make this work? Should the button send off a packet to the server, where all the crafting stuff is done, and then send a packet back with the finished product? if so, how would I go about doing this with what I currently have?
If any of my code is needed, here:
(Just a warning, I'm a messy coder, so prepare your eyeholes)
GuiWandCrafting.java
ContainerWandCrafting.java
The addWandMod method from SorceryHelper
Tell me if there's any more information you need.
Thanks
EDIT: Changed the question a bit.
