Nightvision flicker?

[TLHPoE]

Normally, the Nightvision doesn't go crazy with the light. I'm trying to make it so where you get Nightvision when you hold my sword. But I think it adds the potion effect so fast that it flickers the light a whole lot. Is there anyway I can add a delay to make sure it doesn't rapidly add the potion effect?

 

ServerTickHandler12e3

 

 

package deathman12e3;

 

import java.util.EnumSet;

 

import net.minecraft.entity.player.EntityPlayer;

import net.minecraft.item.ItemStack;

import net.minecraft.potion.Potion;

import net.minecraft.potion.PotionEffect;

import net.minecraft.src.ModLoader;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.ITickHandler;

import cpw.mods.fml.common.TickType;

 

public class ServerTickHandler12e3 implements ITickHandler

{

 

@Override

public void tickStart(EnumSet<TickType> type, Object... tickData)

{

 

  if (type.equals(EnumSet.of(TickType.PLAYER)))

  {

 

    playerTick((EntityPlayer)tickData[0]);

   

  }

 

}

 

@Override

public void tickEnd(EnumSet<TickType> type, Object... tickData) {

// TODO Auto-generated method stub

}

 

@Override

public EnumSet<TickType> ticks()

{

 

return EnumSet.of(TickType.PLAYER, TickType.SERVER);

 

}

 

@Override

public String getLabel() {

// TODO Auto-generated method stub

return null;

}

 

private void playerTick(EntityPlayer player)

{

 

if(player.getCurrentEquippedItem() != null)

{

 

ItemStack hand = player.getCurrentEquippedItem();

 

if(hand.getItem().itemID == mod_deathman12e3.hellstoneSword.itemID)

{

 

player.addPotionEffect((new PotionEffect(Potion.nightVision.id, 5, 1)));

 

}

 

}

 

}

 

}

Try giving the person nightvision for 11 seconds. It prevents the view from flashing.

[TLHPoE]

Still flickers.

Do you have a screenshot or video?

May I please see your code?

[khlorghaal]

Just a guess but it's probably because you're applying it every tick, try only applying it once a second or so.

[TLHPoE]

That's what I'm trying to do. I want it to have a cool down. So it adds the potion effect for 1 second, then it waits 1 second and adds it again.

[SwordsMiner]

Just in case your wondering, 11 seconds counts as 220 tick wise, you can just tell the "script" 11 where its asking for an interval

[TLHPoE]

How would I delay it though?

[khlorghaal]

if(player.ticksExister % interval ==0)

    apply()

[TLHPoE]

How would I make that delay for 1 second? I don't really understand the if() you put in.

[TLHPoE]

Bump. :I

[hydroflame]

just do this

 

if(player.ticksExisted % 220==0)functiontoApplyNightVision();
