I am creating a mod that add an armor that the player can eat to replenish their hunger bar at the cost of the armor's durability. I created a new class that inherits from the ItemArmor class. However, on right click I run the same methods as the onEaten method of ItemFood. Everything is working properly, my hunger bar is replenishing and my duribility is decreasing, except there are no particle effects rendering and the time it takes to eat once is too fast even though I have overiden the method getMaxItemUseDuration to retrun 4 times the default number of ticks.

 

I am attaching my armor class and a video of what's wrong.

 

So my question is how do I add the particle effects and make the eating duration longer?

public ItemAppleIronBoots(int par1,
		EnumArmorMaterial par2EnumArmorMaterial, int par3, int par4) {
	super(par1, par2EnumArmorMaterial, par3, par4);

}

@SideOnly(Side.CLIENT)

public void registerIcons(IconRegister register){
	this.itemIcon = register.registerIcon("more_apples:appleIron_boots");
}


public String getArmorTexture(ItemStack stack, Entity entity, int slot, int layer){
	return "more_apples:textures/models/armor/appleIron_layer_1.png";
}

@Override
 public ItemStack onItemRightClick(ItemStack par1ItemStack, World par2World, EntityPlayer par3EntityPlayer)
    {
	par1ItemStack.attemptDamageItem(2, new Random());
	par3EntityPlayer.setItemInUse(par1ItemStack, this.getMaxItemUseDuration(par1ItemStack));
	par3EntityPlayer.setEating(true);
	par2World.playSoundAtEntity(par3EntityPlayer, "random.burp", 0.5F, par2World.rand.nextFloat() * 0.1F + 0.9F);
	par3EntityPlayer.getFoodStats().addStats(2, 0.2F);
        return par1ItemStack;
    }

@Override
public EnumAction getItemUseAction(ItemStack par1ItemStack)
    {
        return EnumAction.eat;
    }

@Override
public int getMaxItemUseDuration(ItemStack par1ItemStack)
    {
        return 128;
    }
}

Remove

par3EntityPlayer.setEating(true);

it is already done by setItemInUse(args);

 

Also move methods in, and override:

@Override
public ItemStack onEaten(ItemStack par1ItemStack, World par2World, EntityPlayer par3EntityPlayer)
    {
par1ItemStack.attemptDamageItem(2, new Random());
par2World.playSoundAtEntity(par3EntityPlayer, "random.burp", 0.5F, par2World.rand.nextFloat() * 0.1F + 0.9F);
	par3EntityPlayer.getFoodStats().addStats(2, 0.2F);
        return par1ItemStack;

Thanks, I overrode the onEaten method and updated the onItemRightClick method. Now the particle effects are loading properly and the eating in on a proper speed.

 

Thanks a bunch!
