I am trying to play a vanilla Minecraft sound when I am spawning an item into the world. I think I am close but the sound does not play when the item spawns into the world.

 

@SubscribeEvent
    public static void onRightClickBlock(RightClickBlock event) {
        Player player = event.getEntity();
        Level level = event.getLevel();
        InteractionHand hand = event.getHand();

        BlockState blockState = event.getLevel().getBlockState(event.getPos());
        Block block = blockState.getBlock();

        if (player.isShiftKeyDown() && hand == InteractionHand.MAIN_HAND && block == Blocks.MOSS_BLOCK && !level.isClientSide){

            player.drop(ItemInit.STONE_PEBBLE.get().getDefaultInstance(), false);  
          
            level.playSound(player, event.getPos(), SoundEvents.MOSS_PLACE, SoundSource.BLOCKS, 1f, 1f);

        }

 

I am still new to modding and coding so this may be a little ugly haha. Trying to learn!

try this:

if first three conditions
{
if not clientside drop pebble
else play sound
}

i can't fire up the ide now but something like this should work.

if (player.isShiftKeyDown() && hand == InteractionHand.MAIN_HAND && block == Blocks.MOSS_BLOCK){

            if (!level.isClientSide){
                player.drop(ItemInit.STONE_PEBBLE.get().getDefaultInstance(), false);
            }
            else {
                level.playSound(player, event.getPos(), SoundEvents.MOSS_PLACE, SoundSource.BLOCKS, 1f, 1f);
            }

        }

 

That worked! Thanks. I'm not quite sure why though? Does it have to do with sounds only being able to play on the client/server?

That code only plays the sound on the client for the player dropping the pebble.

if (player.isShiftKeyDown() && hand == InteractionHand.MAIN_HAND && block == Blocks.MOSS_BLOCK){

            if (!level.isClientSide){
                player.drop(ItemInit.STONE_PEBBLE.get().getDefaultInstance(), false);
                level.playSound(null, event.getPos(), SoundEvents.MOSS_PLACE, SoundSource.BLOCKS, 1f, 1f); //player null plays to everyon near block
            }

        }

GOT IT! Thanks all. The player being passed in the first code I commented stopped it from playing to me. The link you send me @warjort finished it up for me!
