I'm using the ITickable#update() method to update the loading progress of my Growing Chamber. However I do want to make sure that the update() method is called in between constant intervals. I couldn't find any confirmation online, and for anyone helping I did research ahead of time. Pestering people on forums is always my last resort. Thank you in advance!

I'm guessing this is for a TileEntity? If so, it's called once every tick so its constant in terms of MC. As for the time between those ticks, it usually is approximately the same unless some bad logic is causing the ticks to lag behind.

Thank you! Yes it is a TileEntity. I'm just using the update method so what I think you are saying is that the update() from ITickable is called a constant rate. Thank you very much

It's called once per game-logic-tick, which under ideal and normal circumstances, is 20 times a second.

If game logic is for some reason running slow (eg. lag), then it will be slower (but so will everything else). If it's faster for some reason (undefined example) then it'll be faster, but so will everything else. And of course, these values (e.g. "20 times a second" or "every 50 ms") are all approximate averages. It'll never be precisely the declared rate, but as far as you and your code should be concerned, it is.

Oh ok, so that was actually my question: if the game is slower, will the update method be called less, and when it's faster, will the update method be called more frequently? If that's the case, how do I solve this? I remember doing something to fix that once in a pure Swing Java program, but I don't know how I would do that in minecraft.

You can't. The only way it would be called slower than 20x a second would be if the game is lagging because the hardware is overloaded. There is nothing you can do in software to stop the hardware from being overloaded.

oh okay. so this is only something that would happen if the game was extremely slow. but if one was running okay, and another was running really well, they would be called at the rates right?

Sorry, but I also don't know how to reduce the time in between each time the update() is called. Any suggestions?

You don't. Just assume if nobody is being dumb that all logic will be uniformly spread over a period of time. MC logic should be done relative to ticks anyways so you won't have to deal with desynced real world timing.

Correct.

 

You don't. If you only want something to happen every second you have a counter that counts up to 5.

Thank you for the first part ("correct").

 

The second response, I understand how to reduce it, but I was wondering if there was a more efficient way to reduce. The way I did it was have 2 variables: growingTime, reductionGear

Every update the reductionGear goes up by 1. Every 25 times it increments, the growing time increments. I'm not an idiot (well actually I am since I'm still in 9th grade although I did skip 1 entire grade and got bumped up in CS&E and Spanish class), but I was wondering if there was like an @Override method that did that same thing more efficiently. Such as maybe a

@Override

changeUpdateInterval(int interval)

or something like that.

    • Oh I forgot to update the title. I figured out the issue and I'm rather embarrassed to say that it was a file path issue. The game already knew I was accessing the achievements so I wasn't suppose to include advancements in the file path. Minecraft file paths have always confused me a little bit... ResourceLocation advancementId = new ResourceLocation( TheDeadRise.MODID,"adventure/spawntrigger");
    • Can someone help my with this? My forge server won't open and I'm not that good with this stuff.

    • Here is the url for the crash report if anyone can help me, please. https://mclo.gs/KGn5LWy  
    • Every single time I try and open my modpack it crashes before the game fully opens and I don't know what is wrong. I open the crash logs but I don't understand what any of it means. What do I do?
    • Hey, sorry I haven't said anything in a while. I was banned on here for sending you straight up crash logs and they banned me for spam... but I learned that these forums are for forge only and I was working with neoforge... but thank you for all the help.
