Currently working on a mod that requires items which can target and interact with a player from far away. I used the giant items from Twilight Forest for reference but it doesn't seem to work. Posted my code for the item below, anyone got a clue on what's wrong with it since I'm not too sure what's wrong, spent a while working on it but not too sure what to fix. GitHub link to item: https://github.com/SwimmingTuna/LOTM/blob/master/src/main/java/net/swimmingtuna/lotm/item/custom/MindReading.java. A push in the right direction would be appreciated, thank you.

 

 

Mixins (the version of the item that is actually used in that code) are not supported in this forum.

If you want support/help you need to be using the forge and vanilla api.

 

On the java file you link, that doesn't work because your UUIDs are broken. Here's a simple java program to generate valid ones:

package whatever;

import java.util.UUID;

public class UUIDGen {
  public static final void main(String[] args) {
    System.out.println(UUID.randomUUID());
  }
}

When I change your item to use valid UUIDs, and make the callback somewhat more standard, it works for me.

static UUID BeyonderItemEntity = UUID.fromString("4bdfbc79-9e09-4111-8012-199025111273");
static UUID BeyonderItemBlock = UUID.fromString("487c4613-122f-44de-ae1e-70efb1e031d8");

-- snip --

    public InteractionResult interactLivingEntity(ItemStack pStack, Player pPlayer, LivingEntity pInteractionTarget, InteractionHand pUsedHand) {
        if (!pPlayer.level().isClientSide && pUsedHand == InteractionHand.MAIN_HAND) {
            pPlayer.sendSystemMessage(Component.literal("Interacted with " + pInteractionTarget.getClass().getSimpleName()));
        }
        return InteractionResult.sidedSuccess(pPlayer.level().isClientSide);
    }

Including being able to break blocks at extended range.

Completely forgot to thank you for this, this helped so much, pretty much worked as intended, just had to make a lazy field and store the attribute in there to finally make it work. But thank you a bunch, really appreciated
