Player has no delta movement on Server

Recommended Posts

So I've noticed that if I try to get Player's delta movement, it returns some values on Client, but on Server, the vector is just a bunch of zeros.

I'm guessing this is because Player movement is mainly handled on Client, but I'd like to ask if there's any way to get Player's movement on Server (for example, if there was a block the Player could pass through only at a certain speed along one axis, or if the block would save Player momentum and then set that Player's momentum again when needed).

I already know how to sync it to the Client from the Server, that's not a problem. But I can't get it to sync from the Client to Server with Entity#hurtMarked, that's the problem. If I try to get the delta movement on Server, the vector looks like this: (0.0, 0.0, 0.0) so saving it and then applying it to the Entity just makes it stop.

Are there any other methods Minecraft uses for syncing to Server?

Alright, so for a second I thought I had a solution when I remembered the old position Entities use for lerping is public

public final Vec3 getPosition(float p_20319_) {
      double d0 = Mth.lerp((double)p_20319_, this.xo, this.getX());
      double d1 = Mth.lerp((double)p_20319_, this.yo, this.getY());
      double d2 = Mth.lerp((double)p_20319_, this.zo, this.getZ());
      return new Vec3(d0, d1, d2);
   }

and while I was able to get the position on server, I found out the old position is identical to the current position (both on client and server), which means if I subtract it from the current position, I still get 0.0, what's up with that? I how can the game lerp motion if the two positions are the same?

That field syncs it from the server to the client.

Makes sense since the delta movement is not necessary for syncing, only the position and rotation.

You can't, lerping is not supposed to be done on the server anyways as it is meant for handling smoother animations on the client when rendering to the screen. You should just be using the raw position values if you want to use them.

 

Once again, player movement is handled on the client. The only information synced to the server is those that need to be sent to all players, which in terms of movement can typically be boiled down to (as an oversimplification) position and rotation. If you want other values, you'll need to sync them yourself using a packet. Using Entity#hurtMarked will allow you to sync the values you set on the server back to the client afterward.

Oh no, I don't want to do any lerping, I know it's just for client (though I can see why it may have sounded like I do, I should have worded it better). I was just commenting on how baffled I am by the fact that the old values are the same as the new values, since I was expecting them to be different (especially in the case of lerping).

That's what I tried to do when I found out the old values and new values are idetical. Then after some more testing, I realized they're identical only on the server.

In terms of syncing, I've found ClientboundSetEntityMotionPacket that does the job pretty well.

Yep, that's what Entity#hurtMarked calls.

It's not necessary on the server as it's handled on the client. Delta movement doesn't need to be known on the server since it doesn't affect anything. When the delta movement is applied to the player on server, it is typically by setting the method I mentioned above which adds the movement to the player on the client.

I assume that your issue is trying to get the delta movement of the server player and the return result is (0.0, 0.0, 0.0) even though that player is walking around, however, the true delta movement is handled by the client player (or local player) at Minecraft.getInstance().player and you can get the delta movement from this. To get that from another player on the server, you can try using SimpleChannel (read this at Forge Documentation: SimpleImpl). By making the clients with your mod installed send to the server the local player's movement data and making the server send this to other clients, you can get the true delta movement of the players.

    • Yesterday I played Minecraft as usual, but today for some reason the world stopped starting, I will attach a link to the mods, the map and logs pls advise what should I do https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1WYV0zIGmWvckW54Q5FvMQhMJJmwQQnRF?usp=sharing
    • I'm creating a custom staff, that can be used like a bow, meaning i can use it and it should "load" the staff.   As far as i can see the interaction is pretty simple: activate the "draw" stage via overriding use and then when the mouse is released the "releaseUsing" and "useOnRelease" methods are called.    What i want to achieve is between the activation and the release: I want to do stuff while it is drawn. For example i want to create particles and i want to stop the "drawn" stage in certain conditions. Is something like this possible and if so, where can i look? I'm also happy with examples from other mods. (For example i think that mana and artifice has something like that with the beam spells, but that mod is not open source).
    • Minecraft Version: 1.8-1.20.X Forge Version: All (Tested on 49.0.27, 11.14.4.1577 and some others) Steps to Reproduce: Setup a server with IPV6 only Setup a docker container with forge Try to connect to the Forge Server Description of issue: Hello, I am reaching out to seek your expertise within this forum to clarify a technical situation I am encountering, suspecting a potential issue related to Forge in a Docker environment, specifically in an IPv6 context. Initial Configuration: Debian 12 server, configured exclusively for IPv6, with Docker installed. Using the Docker image ghcr.io/pterodactyl/yolks:java_17, launching a Minecraft Vanilla server version 1.20.4 proceeds without any issues. Problem: The issue arises when deploying a Minecraft Forge server version 1.20.4 with the same Docker image (ghcr.io/pterodactyl/yolks:java_17), where connecting to the server becomes impossible. Notably, this issue does not occur when launching outside of Docker, where the server functions as expected. Hypothesis: This situation leads me to question the interaction between Forge and Docker, particularly in an IPv6-only configuration, despite several resolution attempts (testing with different versions of Forge, adjusting container network configurations (0.0.0.0, ::/0, and the server's ipv6), trials with various network settings, and modifications of Java options). Further testing was conducted with and without the use of the Pterodactyl game panel, unsuccessfully. The parameter -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=false also did not provide a solution. I tried to do the same things on multiple Minecraft server (include vanilla,spigot,fabric,sponge) and this work fine. The problem only happend with Forge. This issue seem to happend on all forge versions.   I appreciate your time and assistance in advance.
