[1.5.2] Gui won't render

Posted August 28, 201312 yr

I've been try to figure out why this gui won't open when I click/use the block it's attached to. Here is the code for the block, gui and the proxy code.

package altenergy.client.gui;

import org.lwjgl.opengl.GL11;

import altenergy.content.controllers.TileControllerPC;
import altenergy.core.misc.PowerCoreState;
import altenergy.lib.Textures;

private boolean isActive = false;
private int xSize;
private int ySize;

	System.out.println("Gui open");
	this.tileEntity = (TileControllerPC) world.getBlockTileEntity(x, y, z);
	this.player = player;
	this.xSize = 146;
	this.ySize = 67;
}

@Override
    public void drawScreen(int x, int y, float f) {
	drawGuiContainerBackgroundLayer();
	drawGuiContainerForegroundLayer();
}

protected void drawGuiContainerForegroundLayer() {

	this.fontRenderer.drawString("Power Core Controller", 44, 8, 4210752);

	String stateText = "";
	String displayText = "";

	if(this.tileEntity.getStatus() == PowerCoreState.Idle) {
		stateText = "Idle";
	} else if(this.tileEntity.getStatus() == PowerCoreState.Generate) {
		stateText = "Generating";
	} else if(this.tileEntity.getStatus() == PowerCoreState.Overload) {

	} else if(this.tileEntity.getStatus() == PowerCoreState.Vent) {

	}
	displayText = "100000.0Watt";//ElectricityDisplay.getDisplay(tileEntity.generateWatts, ElectricUnit.WATT);
	this.fontRenderer.drawString("Status: " + stateText, (int) (33), 24, 4210752);
	this.fontRenderer.drawString("Output: " + displayText, (int) (30 - displayText.length() * 1.25), 44, 4210752);
}

protected void drawGuiContainerBackgroundLayer() {

	this.mc.renderEngine.bindTexture(Textures.GUI_MINI_POWERCORE);
	GL11.glColor4f(1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F, 1.0F);

	containerWidth = (this.width - this.xSize) / 2;

	this.drawTexturedModalRect(containerWidth, contrainerHeight, 0, 0, this.xSize, this.ySize);

		player.closeScreen();
	} else {

	}
}

private boolean toggleButton() {
	return !isActive;
}

@Override

	super.mouseClicked(x,y,buttonID);

	if(xAxis > 133 && xAxis < 141 && yAxis > 18 && yAxis < 24) {

What do you mean by opening correctly?

Do you mean using this code?

player.openGui(AltEnergy.instance, GuiIds.CONTROLLER_PC, world, x, y, z);

Or is there something else I'm missing?

I have another gui that works and both block files are just about identical. Other then the code for the controller to link to the powercore.

what i mean is, if you println inside the drawScreen function, do you see those inside your logs ?

Ah that what you ment. No they don't print in the eclipse console. In fact the println in the getClientGuiElement at GuiIds.CONTROLLER_PC doesn't print ether. It's like the player.openGui never gets called at all, but when I have println on both sides of player.openGui they both print. I've been pounding my head agenst this problem for a few days.

@Override
public Object getClientGuiElement(int ID, EntityPlayer player, World world, int x, int y, int z) {
	System.out.println("ID: " + ID);
	if(ID == GuiIds.MINI_POWERCORE) {
			return new GuiMiniPowerCore(player, world, x, y, z);
	} else if(ID == GuiIds.CONTROLLER_PC) {
			System.out.println("Opening Controller Gui");
			return new GuiControllerPC(player, world, x, y, z);
	} else if(ID == GuiIds.MACHINE) {
			return new GuiMachine(player, world, x, y, z);
	}

	return null;
}

oh i know, you are doing a !world.isRemote before you open your gui but getServerElemetn doesnt return anything for ControllerPC so it doesnt send the message to the client to open the gui, just remove the !world.isRemote

Strange it's working now. I have another gui that uses the world.isRemote and it doesn't have any problems opening at all. Why wouldn't it work for this gui?

Quote

August 28, 201312 yr

like i said, its becasue getServerElement doesnt return anything so it never send the message to the client to open the gui, your other 2 gui have containers so once the container is opened the server send the message to the client to open X gui

Ah so basicly if my gui doesn't have a container don't use world.isRemote around the player.openGui.

Thanks for your help!

[1.21.3] How to add effects to food?

game changed the way you create foods.
for example minecraft 1.21.8 code for the golden apple is

Foods.java
public static final FoodProperties GOLDEN_APPLE = new FoodProperties.Builder().nutrition(4).saturationModifier(1.2F).alwaysEdible().build();

Items.java
public static final Item GOLDEN_APPLE = registerItem("golden_apple", new Item.Properties().food(Foods.GOLDEN_APPLE, Consumables.GOLDEN_APPLE));

Consumables.java
public static final Consumable GOLDEN_APPLE = defaultFood() .onConsume( new ApplyStatusEffectsConsumeEffect( List.of(new MobEffectInstance(MobEffects.REGENERATION, 100, 1), new MobEffectInstance(MobEffects.ABSORPTION, 2400, 0)) ) )
