[Solved]Why does my TileEntity lose its Data on World reload??

[siiikooo0743]

Hi,

 

my TileEntity loses its Data when i save and reload the world.

Why?

 

TileEntity:

public class TE_BuildingBlock extends TileEntity
{

public int TextureBlockID;
public int TextureBlockMetadata;

@Override
public void writeToNBT(NBTTagCompound par1)
{
   super.writeToNBT(par1);
   par1.setInteger("TextureBlockID", TextureBlockID);
   par1.setInteger("TextureBlockMetadata", TextureBlockMetadata);
}

@Override
public void readFromNBT(NBTTagCompound par1)
{
   super.readFromNBT(par1);
   TextureBlockID = par1.getInteger("TextureBlockID");
   TextureBlockMetadata = par1.getInteger("TextureBlockMetadata");
}

}

 

MainMod:

GameRegistry.registerTileEntity(TE_BuildingBlock.class, "buildingBlock");

 

Block:

public TileEntity createTileEntity(World world, int metadata)
{
    return new TE_BuildingBlock();
}

@Override
public boolean hasTileEntity(int metadata)
{
	return true;
}

 

Thanks

Hi

 

Curious.

 

I don't know what the problem is.

 

But I suspect you can get some clues by putting a breakpoint in TileEntity.createAndLoadEntity and finding out why it doesn't call your readFromNBT.  Or if it does - why it doesn't work.

My problem at the moment is to get breakpoints working in my project setup.

But i might just use the standart setup now.

Got breakpoints working and the data gets actually properly read.

The Block just doesn't update right.

I'm fixing that now.

The Data seems to get lost between the TileEntity.readFromNBT([...]) and the later called Block.getBlockTexture([...]), where i use the Tile Entity. 

 

Trying to find out why

Hi

 

Does your Block implement ITileEntityProvider?

Once Chunk.setChunkBlockTileEntity is used

this.chunkTileEntityMap.put(chunkposition, par4TileEntity);

your TileEntity should be in there for good.  Can you breakpoint that and inspect it?

A breakpoint in TileEntity.invalidate() might also highlight a problem with your freshly minted TileEntity being thrown away?

Hi,

 

TileEntity.invalidate()

never get's called.

this.chunkTileEntityMap.put(chunkposition, par4TileEntity);

gets called and

par4TileEntity

has all the data.

You need to implement the tile entity method of getDescriptionPacket() in order to send your data to client.

 

I bet the data is read properly on server, but the client never sees it -- it gets a blank tile-entity with the default initialized values for those fields.

 

--edit oh: you will also need to implement the packet-reading methods....

public void onDataPacket(INetworkManager net, Packet132TileEntityData pkt)

THANK YOU!

 

Works!
