Trouble with adding chat message on interact

[Jacknoshima]

Okay, so, I wanted to add a chat message when interacting with an entity

I got it to send the chat message but, for some reason, it sends it twice

 

here is the code

 

 

    public boolean interact(EntityPlayer par1EntityPlayer)
    {
        ItemStack itemstack = par1EntityPlayer.inventory.getCurrentItem();

        if (itemstack != null && itemstack.itemID == AdvZelda.bottleempty.itemID && !par1EntityPlayer.capabilities.isCreativeMode)
        {
            if (itemstack.stackSize-- == 1)
            {
                par1EntityPlayer.inventory.setInventorySlotContents(par1EntityPlayer.inventory.currentItem, new ItemStack(AdvZelda.lonlonmilk));
            }
            else if (!par1EntityPlayer.inventory.addItemStackToInventory(new ItemStack(AdvZelda.lonlonmilk)))
            {
                par1EntityPlayer.dropPlayerItem(new ItemStack(AdvZelda.lonlonmilk.itemID, 1, 0));
            }
            
    		par1EntityPlayer.addChatMessage("Moo");


            return true;
        }
        else
        {
            return super.interact(par1EntityPlayer);
        }
    }

 

 

can anyone tell me why it's sending the chat message twice?

[Jacknoshima]

it seems to add the chat message twice even if I don't have it under the if statement

 

as in

 

 

    public boolean interact(EntityPlayer par1EntityPlayer)
    {
    	par1EntityPlayer.addChatMessage("moo");
        ItemStack itemstack = par1EntityPlayer.inventory.getCurrentItem();

        if (itemstack != null && itemstack.itemID == AdvZelda.bottleempty.itemID && !par1EntityPlayer.capabilities.isCreativeMode)
        {
            if (itemstack.stackSize-- == 1)
            {
                par1EntityPlayer.inventory.setInventorySlotContents(par1EntityPlayer.inventory.currentItem, new ItemStack(AdvZelda.lonlonmilk));
            }
            else if (!par1EntityPlayer.inventory.addItemStackToInventory(new ItemStack(AdvZelda.lonlonmilk)))
            {
                par1EntityPlayer.dropPlayerItem(new ItemStack(AdvZelda.lonlonmilk.itemID, 1, 0));
            }

            return true;
        }
        else
        {
            return super.interact(par1EntityPlayer);
        }
    }

 

 

still adds it twice

its sends message twice,beacos you need to check server side and client side.....message to player sending from both of them,so you need to check is it server or no.How to do it?

if (!mc.thePlayer.worldObj.isRemote) {
			  //client side
		  } else
		  {
			  //server side
		  }

if you want,you can add that simple message "moo" at client side,but if you want to make it "Moo my age is"+bla bla,then you need to make it server side,beacos that is better

 

p.s. if you want,you can send message on client for first comment,that will work

[Jacknoshima]

yeah, I just got it before I saw your comment

Though  I found just adding it into a

 

if (!worldObj.isRemote)
{
addChatMessage("moo")
}

 

seemed to work

 

but I'll keep in mind the code you've given me for future use if I need to do more complex stuff with it

[fhntv24]

heh,you didnt say what you have worldObj at you class,so i made it with player world

You mixed up client and server side, but the idea is here.
