Item Recipes not working in multiplayer?

[Athire]

Hello all! I'm a bit new to Minecraft modding so please bare with me, as this is probably an easy fix. I'm working on a basic spells mod, and I've run into an issue.In single player I made a spell book that would shoot a fireball when right clicked, but when I try to get it working in multiplayer the crafting recipe for it does not work! The book appears in the crafting output, but when I click it it does not go into my inventory. To verify that the issue isn't just my book, I added another recipe that would turn a few blocks of dirt into diamond, and I got the same result. What do I have to do differently to get custom recipes working in multiplayer? I believe the issue has to do with the client server system in minecraft. I have both a clientProxy and commonProxy class, but they don't currently do anything because I don't quite know what to do with them I'll add my code in the attachments section, I used kennethbgoodin's Youtube tutorial to get my base class, client proxy and common proxy classes set up, so creadit for the structure of it goes to him! Also, I'm trying to add a mana system, so I created a player class inherited from the EntityPlayerMP class in minecraft and added a variable to store the amount of player mana, so that's why I have an "EntityMagicPlayerMP" class.  Thank you so much for any help you guys can give! I'm still in the learning phases of this so anything you guys can teach me will be greatly appreciated!

 

P.S. ok I'm having an issue uploading the attachment, I'll try attaching it in another comment (Sorry, I'm new here if you couldn't tell )

P.S.S Also it gave me an error that I uploaded this already, but my profile says I havn't posted anything yet. So if this is  a re-post I'm very sorry!

[Athire]

So for the life of me I can't get attachments to work, I'm gonna have to just copy/paste my code. Sorry if this isn't the correct thing to do on this site, again I'm new

Is your mod loaded on the Server?

Maybe check the Serverconsole.

 

Can't seem to find anything wrong in the code.

Hi

 

Looks to me like your mod is running on the client not the server.

 

Try changing this line

@NetworkMod(clientSideRequired= true, serverSideRequired= false)

to be true on both sides.  Not sure if that's the problem but it's worth a try.

 

BTW a link on Proxy stuff you might find interesting

Move every initialization and registration into the FMLPreInit event.

Blocks and Items included.

 

And use lowercase for your package.

Thanks guys! I'll try these out and get back to you! Thank you all for the help!

[Athire]

Ok so i tried switching serverSideRequired to true, which made no change unfortunately. Then I moved all of my blocks and items to the preInit function, which also made no change. I checked the server console and found that it said "3 mods loaded" which it lists as MCP, Forge, and ForgeModLoader. So I guess the server isn't registering my mod? Any ideas on how to fix this? That's weird though because my custom recipes are recognized to a degree, my spell book thing appears in the crafting output, if I hover over it it reads the name "Spell Tome: Fireball". When I click it it fidgets like it's going into my inventory but then doesn't, the same with my dirt to diamond test recipe. Is that because the recipes are registered client side, so they appear, but the server doesn't recognize them, so nothing happens when it is clicked? Thank you all for your help so far, even if the prior suggestions didn't pan out I'm super grateful for your input!

[Draco18s]

The behavior you describe is exactly equivalent to the server not having your mod installed.

 

In fact, you confirmed it when the server said that it loaded three mods: MCP, Forge, and FML.

 

How do you fix it?  Well, by putting your mod in the server's mod folder.

[Athire]

Ok, so I found where to put my mod, but my issue is now that I've been just using the run button on eclipse to test my mod builds on the MCP test server (in the MCP file in forge), I haven't been recompiling and reobfuscating it because I've only added like 1 recipe so far. So I don't really have a mod folder. I did find the folder containing my .class files under MCP>>src>>minecraft, but when I copy/pasted it there it didn't work. I figured it wouldn't but I gave it a try anyway. So will I have to recompile and reobfuscate every time I want to test to see if something works? Will that give me the finished mod folder I need to run it on the MCP test server? Or am I just missing something (which I very well could be)? Again thanks for everything guys, you've been very helpful! Thanks for having patience with me

[Draco18s]

The run button has a dropdown.  In it are two options:

 

Client

Server

Oh wow! That got it working! Thank you! And thanks to everyone who replied to me!
