Block Damaging, About to throw computer.

[snocavotia]

I have been fiddling with code all day and have not found a single peice of code that works.. But lets say this.

 

I press my LeftMouseButton. that button initiates a method and that method slowly damages the block based on my pickaxe and the BlockID. I no longer need to mine at a specific x,y,z but what is this damn method?! I've searched for two days now. I've tried PlayerControllerMP.clickBlock() World.destroyBlock(), World.partiallyDestroyBlock(), etc..

 

Basically what i am saying is this. What method tells the game (Client AND Server). that i am mining/breaking/have broken the block im looking at?

Why are you going to hurt the computer? It's a tool. It's like punching a hammer because you can't figure out how to make it pound a nail into a board.

Jokes aside, you're looking at the wrong side of things. This is done with packets.... specifically the Packet14DigBlock.class packet which is then handled by the netserverhandler regardless of which side you are on. So it is always dealt with on the server side, be it dedicated or integrated, applied to the server world, and then sent as a packet for the actual update (block removal generally). If you want more deatil look into the NetServerHandler.class

Hi

 

The client tells the server to dig the block, the server handles the digging and destroys the block (and sends the results back to the client).

 

The client uses packet14

This is handled by NetServerHandler.handleBlockDig

 

The methods in ItemInWorldManager are used to do the block harvesting and item damage

In particular

ItemInWorldManager.tryHarvestBlock

 

This sets a flag in WorldServer.setBlock which causes the server to (a bit later) send the new block information to the client (markBlockFOrUpdate)
