Player username on startup

[v3XzZ 0]

Hello

I wounder if anybody know how to get the players username during the preinit and/or init stage. The Minecraft.getMinecraft().thePlayer.username doesn't work until you load the world.

Thank you for taking the time

The Minecraft.getMinecraft().thePlayer.username doesn't work until you load the world.

 

No shit, there isn't a player entity until they log into a world.

You're going to need to backtrack the EntityPlayer creation to figure out where the username comes from.

Yes, i know there isn't. That's what i meant. I have tried to backlog but can't find anything so thats why I am asking. The only place I have seen any traces is in the FMLTweaker but there is no instance to that...

Anyone have any idea?

I am pretty sure that the username is stored in the current session. I believe a new session is created when you log in.

Yes, acctually just before i checked this post i found it. I use reflection to get access to the session in minecraft. Then i call the func. func_111285_a() to return the username. Thanks for the post anyway

No need for fancy reflection.

Stick this in your init section, and it prints the username to the log at startup:

 

    System.out.println("The username is...." + Minecraft.getMinecraft().getSession().getUsername() + "!");
