[1.6.4] How to get all the players lokking into a gui? [Unsolved]

[larsgerrits]

Hello, i want to get a list of players that's looking in my gui, and it extends GuiContainer. But there's no way to get the players directly. I can get all of the players from the Container class, but that's not what i want. Do you guys know of a way to get all the players looking into a gui? If anyone needs code, i can provide it.

You need to keep track in your TileEntity, because every player will get a new Container instance.

And how would i go about tracking all the players in the TileEntity/GUI? I've never done anything with player based gui's before.

Before a player can access an TileEntity implementing IInventory the method IInventory.isUseableByPlayer() will be called, to check if the player is permitted to use it. You can use the method, to register your player in a Map in your TileEntity. I have no idea, how you would be able to unregister players.

isUsableByPlayer will be called every tick actually. You should call a custom method in your TE from your containers constructor and pass that the player. Add that player to a Set in the TE. Then there is onContainerClosed in the Container, from there remove the player again.
