When I call TickEvent.ClientTickEvent in my Main.java it does nothing but when I call it in other files like utils.MM it works fine

 

    @SubscribeEvent
    public void onTick(TickEvent.ClientTickEvent event) {
        System.out.println("tick");

}

Im new to moding so this is prolly a dumb question

 

 

 

there are two ways that method would be called for that event:

variant 1 - manual: you called addListener. see ExampleMod.java for example.

variant 2 - automagic: if a class is annotated with @Mod.EventBusSubscriber and the event is made static and annotated with @SubscribeEvent, forge will handle everything.

use variant 2, but not in main class.

Tysm I did this and also addad a MinecraftForge.EVENT_BUS.register(new _________)

 

forgot that was needed

hold on. do not do both 1 and 2.

do variant 2. annotation on class, annotation on event handler method, make method static.

you do not want events to trigger twice.
