Hello, I'm fairly new to modding and I was trying to make a player invisible, when he presses the key "g". I set up the KeyboardKeypressed event, its probably not the right way, because you cant change the keybind, but i wanted to learn , how to make a Player invisible first. Sadly I cant seem to get the Player from the event. Could anyone give me a rough explanation, on what to do and where to start? I dont just want the code, but some explanation too, so I can learn from it. I posted my Code down below, but it is not much. Thx in Advance

 

@SubscribeEvent public void onPlayerRender (GuiScreenEvent.KeyboardKeyPressedEvent event) { if(event.getKeyCode() == 71) { } }

it's a little more complicated than you think, becuase KeyBindings are client side:

  1. create a custom KeyBinding and register it in FMLClientSetupEvent
  2. use TickEvent.ClientTickEvent to check if the KeyBinding is pressed (Note: TickEvents fired twice, check this with TickEvent.phase)
  3. if the KeyBinding is pressed, set Capability value to true (on client)
  4. get Capability value in RenderPlayerEvent.Pre and cancele it if the value is true

I have no idea whether you have to sync the capability to all clients because the RenderPlayerEvent has no Java doc, so its not clear when and how the event is fired

You definitely would have to sync the capability. Both pressing a key as well as rendering is entirely client side. So when the key is pressed you need to send a packet to the server, the server updates the capability and syncs the change to all clients.

It is actually not very straightforward to do this. It would be best to just apply the invisibility effect to the player.

Ok, thank you both very much, I did apply the invisibility effect and it works well now. I'm gonna mark this post as solved now
